Your post reminds me of what has happened to me regarding Michael Medved. I see him as a limp wristed moderate now. It started with his early on shilling for Romney because he “could win”. And it actually was capped off yesterday when he said that even if these conservatives win the primaries, “what have we gained?” A HE** of a lot, Mr. Medved. And it is better than sending RINO’s back.
He doesn’t get that the democrat party is the party of Biff Tannon and the R’s are the party of George McFly. We need the new George to belt Biff when he is up to his bullying. And that means getting rid of people like McConnel and Bohner.
Yes, it is risky. Life is risky. What George Washington did on Christmas was risky. What Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain dit at Little Round Top at Gettysburg was risky. What Patton did in North Africa, and Doolittle did over Japan was risky.
These men in our branches of government are not even risking their lives, but only what John Adams called risking their “comfort”. We need statesmen like Cruz, Lee and, to a lesser degree, Paul to lead the charge against the milquetoasts we have, in a consumerism soaked stupor, elected for ourselves and become the country we once were: Full of personal responsibility and willing to sacrifice comfort for freedom, for ourselves and our progeny.
Or we can go the way of ancient Rome, wich is exactly the path we are currently travelling.
“Or we can go the way of ancient Rome, wich is exactly the path we are currently travelling.”
I’ve though that for the last 30 years (I am in my early forties).
