Yes, indeed! Many who marched in these protests were not socialists ( Marxists).
This Cold Civil that we are fighting began long before the 60s. The Marxists have been infiltrating our institutions since the turn of the last century. If we are to win conservatives must do three things simultaneously:
1) Massive spiritual revival.
2) We must remove our nation's children from the influence of the Marxists. This means getting the nation's children into conservative private schools that weave Judeo Christian values and our nation's founding principles into every minute of their day.We must work to shut down government schooling.
3) Work to shut down government schools. Simply by attending children learn to be socialists. They learn the minute they walk through the door that government has enormous power to take money from their neighbor to pay for a service their parents want for tuition-free.
Indeed. Book smart is not the same as street smart...and I’ll take streetsmart’s chances on survival any day.
And those progressives, who think that the traditionalists are a bunch of knuckledraggers...well, let them keep misunderestimating.
Busting and crushing the unions is the first step. They, along with the likes of George Soros, fund liberal progressivism.
It’s funny. I was thinking the same thing while walking my dog the other day. These Progressive Lefties may have PhDs in “Thinkology” but nothing in the way of common sense.
They are not intellectuals and I am not sure that (pseudo intellectual fits). Do not mistake “Glibness” for genius, with all their education (no matter what school)all we have done is create a class that has a large vocabulary by which to say very stupid things.
Government schools must be abolished. They can't be reformed. Government schools are socialism!
Simply by attending children learn that government has enormous police power to take money from a neighbor to provide a service that their parents want tuition-free. Well!...If government can use police threat to provide tuition free schooling, why not a thousand other wants and needs?
Within one to three generations of modern government schooling our great-granparents, grandparents, and parents thought the following socialist/Marxists programs were just wonderful: ( some of these socialist/Marxist programs are now nearing their 100th anniversary!)
**the IRS
** the federal reserve
** Woodrow Wilson
** usurpation of large tracts of land ( without compensation) for federal parks.
** feminism
** unions
** the failed “One World” League of Nations
** FDR's New Deal
** the abominable U.N.
** Johnson's Great Society
** more than 800% inflation of the dollar
** abolishment of the gold standard.
Solution: Conservatives must work for privatization of universal K-12 education. We must work for the complete shut down of the government K-12 schools, We must work for complete separation of school and state.
Perhaps, but that would require leadership. That type of leadership does not come from elected officials, do you see anyone stepping up?

“Like the Scarecrow, Progressives believe that intelligence is imparted by way of a diploma.”

Liberals also believe that education is the replacement of morality. For example, if the issue of child or teen sex comes up, the libs decry that the kids need to be “educated” and need education on this subject. Morality is what is needed, NOT education. Morality is something that no diploma can grant.

What a load of horsecrap!
I like that he uses the term “Traditionalist” instead of “conservative”. At this point, we need radical traditionalists, because the country has moved so far away from its roots.
Works for me.
I spent four months in Biloxi in 1983, taking a computer programming course at Keesler AFB. While I was there, I visited Jefferson Davis’ home in Pass Christian. Is it true that it was destroyed by Katrina?
“Ex military personnel were such worthless drunkard layabouts they were good only for the lower rungs of the union ladders or not at all.”
Holy crap! Your rhetoric is simply, astoundingly overblown. I was a child of the military through the 1960’s and 1970’s and then a military man in the 1980’s and 1990’s. Yes, there were some scum in the military, and there still are. The much larger majority of those in the service at that time were hard-working, honest and good. I knew MANY military men from that era upon who’s ass you would be but a pimple. Just wow. You should be ashamed of your slander.
Most of the Progressive leaders have shunned military service..
are problems the progressives cannot overcome.

You'd almost think it was totally scripted. Socialists in DC pretending to fight socialists in Asia, imposing the concomitant sacrifice onto the upcoming generation, who react by 1) rejecting the imposition and becoming radical socialists themselves, or 2) accepting the sacrifice and getting shot up and demoralized, thereby becoming less effective opponents of socialism.
I agree. I remember when I went to school. We didn’t even have indoor plumbing and this was in the late 50s and 60s. We brought our water in from a well and all the kids had a job. We learned how to get along with people on the playground. We brought our lunch from home. There were no drink or snack machines. They actually taught us reading, writing, arithmetic and history. We didn’t have any classes on self esteem or any of that rot. Back then to us gay meant happy. We didn’t even know what political correctness was. It was wonderful. Even sitting on a wooden toilet seat in midwinter in Minnesota was wonderful compared to all the fancy trappings they have in schools now. But we actually learned. We also learned common sense. And no one ever got offended over anything. The parents were involved and if you got in trouble at school, you got in even more trouble when you got home.
