The problem with Conservatives is that they possess memories like goldfish, have short term thinking, and rarely fight.
The left are the opposite. While their rank and file/grass roots are even dumber than our conservative christian base , their evil leadership is wickedly smart and deviously cunning. And their leaders have long term plans and goals of total domination over their enemies.
Well said. The article talks about how Indiana Republicans, including Pence, caved over their religious freedom bill, because Apple pressured them. As I recall, Apple threatened to disallow selling their products there. My reaction would have been "Go ahead, make my day". Next, conservatives in other conservative states should have passed the identical bill and told Apple, "Go ahead don't sell it in our state either". Would Cook really have been willing to eliminate that much of his sales? If so, who cares? Or he would have been forced to back down. Also, I won't buy Apple products because of that, but all these Christian conservatives just can't live without their freaking iPhones (or they don't even recall the whole episode).
Contrast that episode with Anita Bryant years ago. She took a conservative stand on homosexuality. Gay rights groups demanded that the orange juice growers drop her as their spokeswoman. Their supporters absolutely wouldn't drink orange juice as long as they kept her on. Guess who won that - even though gay rights supporters weren't very numerous then?
Incredibly well said!
