President Reagan, unlike most of his Cold War predecessors, stated the objective clearly and simply: “Here’s my strategy on the Cold War: We win; they lose.”
For me, that is the attitude we need to have during these very troubling times. “ We win; they lose.”
That’s a great point. We must back it up though. We tend to make fun of liberals when they use their usual platitudes, but we’ve also been guilty of some that as well.
If we declare that we’re out to win, then we need to actually go win. We can’t back down at the first sight of serious resistance or a difficult obstacle.
