“To claim that liberals have lost the culture war, that there has been a rejection of liberalism, is just preposterous.”

“Wishing this were different doesn't make it so.”

Exactly and well stated. The gays have won so much that they can't ever be criticized, even by the church. We have no real freedom of speech. Look at a woman the wrong way and you can be charged with sexual harassment. Crimes against minorities have double penalties because of hate crimes legislation. The Log Cabin Republicans just had a big party led by Bush's out of the closet campaign manager, while Freepers galore here twisted themselves into knots saying that they didn't even care about homosexuality.

Television is a wasteland of half hour long commercials because most old time programs and movies can't get past the invisible curtain of political correctness.

But we supposedly won the culture war, according to this guy. Liberals lost on guns, the ERA and the death penalty, but they filled up the judiciary with judges that won't enforce that third item, so they won there too. They have won so often and so much that their horses have to stop and rest. That's all.

This is a single election, and afterwards the press will blame Republicans for everything from snow storms to hurricanes to toilets not flushing. And the same idiots that believed the media liars since 2004 and for sixty years before that will believe them again.

I hate to spoil the party. Enjoy the win. It will be a win. Just remember we only get one of these every twenty years, and only after the Dems achieve full and total power and begin to drink the people's blood.

Every now and then we slow the train down. That's about it.

The reason we can’t reverse course is that the country no longer believes in the value system upon which it was based. Until we reach the breaking point and return to following judeo-Christian beliefs we will not be able to overcome the Islamization of western civilization. They really believe in their religion and we don’t believe in ours. Our religion is now based on self. We are able to save the world. We can control the earth’s temperature. Our kids are taught that we resulted from some random variation in chemicals with no purpose other than to pleasure ourselves. We need the religious awakening soon or liberals will slide us into Islam as a replacement for our current GAIA religion and the Constitution will be gone.

Winning an election is only a small part of what needs to happen.

Here's where the wild card is. How many people have signed up to FreeRepublic in the last 10 years, saying "I have finally found a place where people believe as I do?" That doesn't count lurkers. Up until the mid- late nineties, there was no medium for conservative political thought, except for Rush, and he only got going in the late eighties. Now we have an internet where the truth can get out, and conservative ideas can get out, so that while Cronkite got away with the lie that Vietnam was unwinnable, Rather couldn't get away with the lie that George W. Bush's superior in the National Guard wrote a bad review.

It will take generations to undo the damage that the Left has done to this country, just as it took generations to do the damage, but the main tool that the Left used to do it, namely exclusive control of the media, is no more. How will that play out? We will have to see, but it ain't over yet.

Someone once said that it’s not the Democrat office-holders we should be concerned about, it’s the people who vote for them. (And effing idiots they are.)

IMHO
