Is There Not Cause to Fight for Conservatism?
Conservative Review ^ | 04/20/16 | David Serenda

Posted on 04/20/2016 6:52:40 PM PDT by writer33

History is the most effective teacher we will have in our lives, because it gives us the answers to life's situations. This is especially true with war stories, as they tell of great courage in the face of even greater despair. Allow me to take you back in time to when a fierce battle was talking place between the armies of the Philistines and armies of Israel.

As we study the history of this battle, we find both armies atop separate mountains with a great valley separating them. As Goliath, the leader of the Palestinian army, mocks the nation of Israel, they fear his great size and run and hide. Today we find a similar battle between liberalism and conservatism. Each army (the political campaign) is on their mountain (agenda) with a great valley (the place of battle) between us, and just like in this story, the liberals are the aggressors, mocking our nations founding and Judeo Christian values.

For 40 days, Goliath (liberalism) came out and challenged the armies (political campaigns) of Israel (conservatism) to battle, going as far as to say, “This day I defy the armies of Israel! Give me a man and let us fight each other.” As the armies heard these words, they feared the giant and fled and hid themselves. From King Saul to the lowest ranking member of the army, they were dismayed and fearful.

Legal immigration is allowed last I checked.

The "good ones" have already violated US immigration law. How will the be eligible for legal immigration unless they're given amnesty?

Don’t know the laws about allowing them in versus keeping them out. Guess the people that do know the laws will have to decide.

So we could very well still end up granting amnesty to millions of them.

At best, we'll have a wall but unless something happens to reign in executive power the next President can decide to just leave the doors standing open and we're not much better off than we are now.

What we need is a leader who can rally and organize the people and the states to reclaim their authority and take control of the mess, but Donald Trump is not that man.

Your successful destruction comment tells me you want some kind of measurable end date. If you knew it would never be done you wouldnt ask it that way. The success is by purging out the known existing and their enablers, and then keeping out those that would try to weasel back in, and it always has to be monitored and measured and dealt with. Success is measured continuously because it requires eternal vigilance.

How was I supposed to know it would never be done? You never answered the question when I asked. Someone else stepped up and offered and explanation, and apparently you don't agree with it.

But the comment you're complaining about came before those explanations, and was directed to someone else.

Actually I see now that what you're complaining about was my initial comment to you.

Applying your explanation in the context of the original question - "Is There Not Cause to Fight for Conservatism?", the answer is that "Destroying the uniparty is what this is all about.".

In response to the question of when then uniparty will be destroyed, the answer to that is "Never".

So now, and forever more the answer to the question ""Is There Not Cause to Fight for Conservatism?" is going to be "Destroying the uniparty is what this is all about."

It will never be "Yes.".
