That myth of critical mass of public outrage that finally brings change has infected the conservative movement to surrender or attempt to make minor changes to bigger problems.

Take the NEA: they stopped funding the universally offensive Maplethorpe, and now only fund the blasphemous dung covered Virgin Mary.

My point was that Weyrich misses the mark in asking for support of a minor correction, rather than a wholesale review of, in this case, Title X.

The first thing you have to do is educate people.

Letting reality smack 'em in the face is probably the most effective way.

Incrementalism works, as our enemies have amply deomnstrated. The problem is that too many conservatives want to make everything perfect--and the only way to do that at this time is to execute all who disagree with you as infidels and heretics.
