What can be done about it? Short of doing an about face, standing up for conservative principles and giving as good as we get, there's nothing that can be done.
The sad fact is that the R.P. has traveled far left of center and doesn't seem to be able to realize it. If it can't, then it sure won't implement corrective measures.
I find it rather sad that on a forum like this, hardly anyone thinks this topic merits discussion. And that's the state of things in conservatism today. It just about doesn't exist any longer.
A few people remember what conservatism used to stand for. Now there's a recipe for advancing the values of our founding fathers.
I see it as the democrats being the new socialist party, the republican party acting like the democrats, and we need a new party, a conservative one based upon the founding fathers principles. Definately not a quick fix, but one that needs to be implimented.
We need a new party.
