I’m reaching the sad conclusion that most “conservatives” talk a big game about wanting to clean up government but talk is a lot cheaper than action.
I finally get acknowledgement about the AIG chief hosting a fundraiser for Perry and then an explanation that everybody does it so its not worth worrying about. (but they sure as heck worried about money AIG gave to Obama, McCain, Romney and others)
Hate to say it but the destruction of America won’t only be on the heads of liberals. All I can do is look out for my own soul and I will face my maker knowing that I at least tried to save America and played no further role in her destruction.
"Most" conservatives is an illusion. There are contingents of loud and frequent posters who can make it appear that the majority of our number are willing to compromise their principles in support of a 'business as usual' candidate, but I really don't believe that most conservatives have fallen into that trap.
For my part, I usually give Perry threads a pass, because I know that many of his supporters on FR vehemently oppose any rational discussion of his actual record.
I find that unfortunate. If they took the opposite tack, and worked to provide counter-balancing arguments with reason and logic, I'd probably follow the threads with great interest.
