I have a hard time accepting the changes in our nation since January of 1993. When Reagan left office in 1989 things were in fairly good shape. Now look at us. It’s amazing.

What I didn’t count on was the complete collapse of the right. For all intents, Conservatism is all but dead in D. C. What did we do with our majority?

I have to agree with you, because nobody stands up to the Left. What other alternative can there be, if the Left supports violence? There is no push back from our leaders.

As the other poster pointed out, look at Chicago. The Black youth there have declared open season, and nobody is calling it what it is, essentially the first salvos of a race war.

I agree with your take on Obama, and the vacuum he left empty, when he could have been a source for good in Black youth.

But thenI guess you wold have to be good to do good. Just sad really.

“What I didn’t count on was the complete collapse of the right. For all intents, Conservatism is all but dead in D. C. What did we do with our majority?”

It is really simple. Republicans discovered that in Washington, D.C., the members of the majority party in control could get rich by selling their votes.

In 1980 Ronald Reagan was elected President. Newt Gingrich, elected in 1978, jointed with others to ally with President Reagan and build the Reagan Coalition, the Religious Right, and the Republican majority - the Reagan Revolution - which directly led to the downfall of the Soviet Union, the Contract with America, government reforms, less government, tax cuts, a balanced budget, and the great, long-standing Reagan economy.

Gingrich becomes Speaker of the House and the Democrats create chaos! For the first time in a very long time the Republicans actually had to govern and take responsibility. The Dems were outnumbered.

What happened is Republicans sold their votes. Certain members of the Senate became collaborators with K Stree lobbyists. If you look at the record of Senator R. Santorum, you will see corruption written all over it.

The 1998 budget was scheduled for a $1 Billion cut and congress saw the gravy train leaving the station. No more getting rich at the public trough.

So it became “get rid of Newt Gingrich” even to the extent of manufacturing lies about him. Later, those phony ethics charges were ALL dropped. The last true conservative resigned from his post of Speaker of the House because he could no longer be effective.

Conservatism in Washington, D.C., died because of greed and self-interest.

If it’s any consolation, Hispanics are wiping blacks off the map economically, demographically, and literally. See past the dying gasps of a dwindling people and prepare to deal with the new urban power imported to replace them.
