For instance, rather than echoing the "jobs Americans won't do" and "nation of immigrants" lies, conservatives need to show young people how illegal scumbag aliens are taking money out of our economy...money that could be used to create jobs for American college grads. Instead of playing along with eco-nuttiness, we conservatives need to teach young people about how each green job kills two and a half other jobs (as has been demonstrated in Spain), how wind and solar will never come close to meeting our energy demands, and how AGW is nothing but a hoax designed to steal money away from us and give it to the UN.
I'd love to see a fresh, new generation of conservatives come out of their government school Leftist indoctrination cocoons, but only if they do so because they see the rightness of our philosophy, and the wrongness of what they've always been told. If they're making their metamorphosis just because they can't find a job right now, they could easily shift right back to their Lefty views as soon as the crisis is over. Big Tentism has destroyed the GOP, and turned it into The Stupid Party. Let's not sell out our philosophy in exchange for a short-term political gain in 2012.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
A ‘teachable moment’ coming up on July 4. I will stand before my wife’s entire family, around 40 strong counting everyone from my wife’s mom down to the great-grandchildren, before we fire up the pyrotechnics, to expound for 1 minute on freedom. I did this two years ago, too, with my stars and stripes high on a hand-held pole. We all must grab our family by their shirts and explain that we must fight for Americanism and reject those who would put us in chains. We are in the fight for our very lives.
