It is bad enough that between parties there is a lot of bashing, which
isn’t very becoming, just means that you don’t have a point if you have
to resort to name calling. But I see a strange trend in the
Conservative circles. A moderate conservative, one willing to
be some what flexible on one or more issues but still holds the
important ones like Federalism, strong defense, the importance of
Judicial Restraint are considered the enemy and despised as much
as Democrats on the very left. Despising someone for their
political beliefs seems rather un-American to me. The
political process is what makes this country great, there isn’t room
for bitterness and pouting when you don’t get your way, work harder,
learn more, have better arguments. That is how the game is played,
don’t name call because you have beliefs that are un-popular.
Most of our domestic issues would go away if we took back the power
that is rightfully ours. The way the Fed works is they use our
money to coerce us into doing what they want. If we took back our
power by paying for it that is tell the Fed to buzz off and pay the
economic price, they would have a challenge beyond mere words, that is
putting your money where your mouth is. If you didn’t like
that a communities gun control laws, move, if the state was exerting
power that you can’t change again move to a state that aligns with you
beliefs, that is the way it is suppose to work, we are very far from
that now. Of course some of this will require Judicial
change, I think we have a good start on that, but the next couple of
nominations are going to be very important, as to which way the
pendulum swings. Justice O’Conor was Proud to say that a Jurist
doesn’t always please the President that appointed them, in her case it
would be an understatement to say the Ronald Reagan was unhappy
with his Activist Judge. Her swing vote has this country in an
awful state of affairs and her writing for even a lay person are
extremely scary.
Wouldn’t it be great if we finally got it right, took back our power
locally and other than our national defense and a very very few other
activities the Federal Government was out of our lives. Moderate
conservative or full right wing Conservative, isn’t that what we all
want, so lets work together.
