Steyn argues that liberals (progressives) spend more energy changing the culture and conservatives more energy on changing officeholders.
Unfortunately we've willingly given the culture to the left rather than seizing our rightful place in it. "Bravely" retreating is still just retreating.
I had the opportunity to speak with CL Bryant last month about Black History month. We agreed that fighting against black history month is a losing proposition. Instead we as conservatives of all races should seize our rightful place in black history with praise of men like Calvin Coolidge and Frederick Douglass. At some point, the fixation on the black part will fade and we can morph it into American history month.
Another thing I do is faithfully take part in a serious survey of television viewers (Viewers Voice). It gives me a choice to support more family friendly and educational television while downgrading the crap.
