It's not about "rights." When it comes to hanging on to our sovereignty it's about power.

Without those Rights all that sovereignty and power gets us is just one more nation.

Re: "Without those Rights all that sovereignty and power gets us is just one more nation."

Yes, very good point. America should never be "just one more nation." It's critical to have government acknowledge our inalienable rights. My argument is not with government per se.

I've been remiss in not specifying the culture war by name. IMO it's real and it's about whose America survives the big war defending against radical Islam. IMO it's a war within a war.

Of course, the left, et al. have inalienable rights to make America into their vision*. They do not however have the right to expect others to go quietly. Nor do I expect the left to go quietly. Neither side will yield.

Eventually matters will have to be settled in the traditional manner, war of some sort. It's been building for decades. I support our side winning by any means possible. IMO that requires another George Washington sort of Man on Horseback. This is about winning both wars to protect America. It's not about creating a dictatorship to replace America.

*However, IMO the left does not have constitutional rights to replace our Constitution with some international federation "constitution."
