Blame?!
Are you kidding?!
The point Im making is that it doesn’t matter how far RR or anyone else “pushed the ball”. Look where we are NOW.
Look, I idolized RR and I still look back fondly on him, but the fact is that in the long run he couldn’t make the changes needed to ensure our freedom and keep the marxists from power. Thats not his fault. Its ours...
Marxists now infest the corrupted institutions of federal and state governments. They teach our children and read our news, They make the movies and the tv shows. The infrastructure of the marxist PR and indoctrination machine is INGRAINED into our society. Every day that goes by we lose more freedom and add another link to the chain. Just ask yourself how these people came to power...
Even if another “savior” came along in the form of RR II and revitalized “conservatism” in the USA... Do you think he would be able to get rid of the NEA? the income tax? all the entitlement programs? Do you think he can permanently convert the marxists our schools and universities have been pumping out? Think he can convert the most pervasive propaganda machine man has ever known into something benign? How about all the laws and regulations that are clearly unconstitutional? Think he can get rid of those?
RR couldnt... The infrastructure does NOT exist to make this happen. Therefore we need to build the infrastructure to make this happen. Only problem is, we need to remove ourselves from their influence to do that.
Im not sure you fully understand the seriousness of the situation. Im almost positive that you have no idea what these marxists are in the process of doing. You need to get up to speed, this isn’t politics as usual this is a for real coup. These people are actively changing the fundamentals of this nation into something resembling a marxist society.
You claim I want to quit the battle...
I say your unwilling to join it... Its not a battle for the USA, its a battle for our freedom.
No, I'm dead serious. Your words spoke for themselves. They were hollow and lacking in any real specifics. Clearly an attempt to lay blame on Reagan for not completely eliminating the enemy. Which any rational conservative knows was impossible. Especially without control of the House.
I responded by pointing out the successes that we conservatives had with Reagan and later on, with Newt Gingrich. The right leadership is critical to any successful endeavor. And I told you where the real blame lies, with Bush43 and a GOP Congress, for their abandonment of conservatism.
The options you offered to solve the problem were also hollow. Then you come back with a diatribe not based on any factual content. Just a rant that offers opinions based on irrational assumptions.

Obviously, you don't know me and you haven't read my posts/threads on FR for the last 9-1/2 years. If you did, you wouldn't be making such dumb remarks. In fact, you should stop jumping to conclusions, period. Makes you look foolish.
>>>>>I say your unwilling to join it...
And I say, stick it in your ear. I've been battling liberalism for 40+ years, bucko. Been on the front lines and behind the lines and I don't need to hear your whiny words of wisdom.

It does make a difference. A huge difference. Reagan and Gingrich gave us the blueprint to conservative victory. You can't abandon that blueprint in favor of more moderate-liberal policies and expect the rightwing to continue to be loyal followers. If that continues, one day America just might have a real "Conservative Party".
Right now conservatism and the GOP lack leadership. Finding the right leadership will not be easy. I am one person, with one vote, but there are many more who stand with me. We saw with the Tea Parties that grassroots opposition to Obama and the Dems is alive and well. Hopefully things will start turning around and we won't need to spend another 40 years wandering in the wilderness.
You want to preach to the choir, fine. Just don't condemn other voices in the process.
