FWIW, my 20-something daughter who lives a couple of blocks from downtown Seattle is in the hub of liberalism and has LOTS of liberal and homosexual friends and acquaintances. She commented to me, a couple of months ago, that all her friends are turning conservative or, at the very least, anti-Obama. She quantified it with anecdotal stories. It was very promising.

Of course, I think it’s too late, but at least maybe they will be a positive influence on whatever Phoenix rises from the ashes.

Political correctness is a left wing movement. The kids are quickly finding out their lives are being completely controlled right down to what they're allowed to say, think, or believe - by force. They're being smothered by the left, and I think inside they're raging. They want to scream. It won't be long before they find the source of that rage. I think most of them will figure it out.

Town Hall (Gallop Poll)With media hype surrounding the "Occupy" protests suggesting America is on the throes of revolution, and this purported revolution is being executed by young Americans speaking for the majority of their age group, you'd be surprised to find that 53 percent of the young people participating in the Gallup poll said they believed government should promote traditional values.

Most intriguing is that Gallup found what appears to be a sure and steady climb toward traditional values over the past three years by the same age group that had overwhelmingly embraced the antithesis of traditional values when they backed Barack Obama's hope and change campaign. Prior to the election, in September 2008, just 38 percent thought the government should promote traditional values. In 2009, the numbers rose to 41 percent, 47 percent in 2010, and climbed to 53 percent this year.

The proverbial liberal who was mugged?
