“Civility” is a one-way street. ALL streets are one-way streets when dealing with Marxists. “Civility” is just another name for denial—denial that we are in a war with Marxists.
You can’t kill 56 million babies and have “civility.” Or, rather, you shouldn’t.
If Mitt Romney had run against: 1) the killing of 56 million babies (I remember GHW Bush, in his 1984 debate with Ferraro, leaning into the microphone and saying: “There have been 15 million abortions.” It will be 60 million in 2016, and a Republican who repeated that number in every speech would win. Most Americans think there have been, maybe, a couple of million abortions—most of them after a rape.) ; 2) government spying, reading our e-mails, groping us in the airports; 3) government putting people in jail for filling in little low spots on their property (”wetlands”), and other insanity from the EPA; 4) military men rotting in prison for being mean to the enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan; 5) fiat money since 1971; 6) the income tax (and for the FAIR Tax); 7) trade with Muslim countries; 8) immigration (The 1965 Immigration should be repealed in toto.)—he would have carried 45 states.
Romney’s campaign was antiseptic and bloodless. A pro-life candidate shouldn’t run against “abortion,” he should run against “the killing of 56 million babies.” He needs to tell stories, like Reagan, of people out of work, people unjustly rotting in jail, people being abused by the government, people being terrorized by unions and the government. No Republican since Reagan has talked this way.
As is your custom, AM, you tell the truth.
50.8% don't care one whit about 1 and 3-8. But ironically 2 alone might have made the difference...the next candidate could reshape the GOP by fully embracing 4A and painting the Democrat as Big Brother/Big Mother.
