Sorry if posting a reply to my own reply is against the rules but let me clarify this post a little further (indirectly a response to LadyJAG): This dilemma that I have was born out of the desire for the CURRENT DOMINANCE OF THE RIGHT "RIGHT" in order to sustain its present prominence for our children/grandchildren - so I figured if we bait the hook (the RIGHT WAY) - we may have less of the leftist-liberal headaches in the future, let's win them over somehow... give them a bone here and there (this became a moot point after Monticello's post who splintered me in a 1000 pieces - but it does clarify the motivation - which I would consider reasonably noble - even though it happens to me mine, so I admit to being subjective).
Your thinking, including your sense of nobility, is flawed.
You cannot throw a dog a bone if he is rabid and intent on inflicting a deadly bite.
