Old doctrines die hard. Russians had to wait three-quarters of a century to see the doctrine of communism die. Americans waited half a century to see the Keynesian economic doctrine of broad state regulation of the commanding heights of the nation's economy replaced by F.A. Hayek and Milton Friedman's market economics.

Creation/God...REFORMATION(Judeo-Christianity)---secular-govt.-humanism/SCIENCE---CIVILIZATION!

Originally the word liberal meant social conservatives(no govt religion--none) who advocated growth and progress---mostly technological(knowledge being absolute/unchanging)based on law--reality... UNDER GOD---the nature of GOD/man/govt. does not change. These were the Classical liberals...founding fathers-PRINCIPLES---stable/SANE scientific reality/society---industrial progress...moral/social character-values(private/personal) GROWTH(limited NON-intrusive PC Govt/religion---schools)!

Evolution...Atheism-dehumanism---TYRANNY(pc-religion/rhetoric)...

Then came the SPLIT SCHIZOPHRENIA/ZOMBIE/BRAVE-NWO1984 LIBERAL NEO-America---

the post-modern(liberal/nazi) age is going---GONE!

We're seeing the strongest leadership America has had since Ronald Reagan faced down the Soviet Union

The adults are back in the White House.

"The death of a doctrine and its replacement with a new one is a rare thing to behold. The past month has seen a textbook example of the exercise of presidential leadership in changing a governing doctrine of U.S. policy. We're seeing the strongest leadership America has had since Ronald Reagan faced down the Soviet Union two decades ago while changing the economic doctrines that were threatening the stability and security of this great nation."

Awesome! Thank you Pete! Thank you George W.!!!!!!

Lets hope we can maintain the initiative. The left never gives up the fight! Just observe the wrangling in the Senate over wording in the war resolution. They are fighting tooth and nail to tie the President's hands to the UN.

Keep the pressure on the traitorous democrats. Call and fax them your feelings...
