Forgive My Patriotism on Tuesday, August 19, 2008 11:05:14 AM
Conservatism finds its place in how the
liberals define us. We don't want to be seen as extremists. We don't want to be
labeled as hypocrites or hateful. I'm sorry for my color, I'm sorry Jesus
offends you, I'm sorry I said "fat", I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
But even among the Republican bastion for conservatives we are scolded for not knowing our place. For standing on our principles we get told to shut up and sit down.
"You're going to make sure Obama wins if you don't vote
McCain."
That mentality is the very reason we don't have someone up there
who is a real conservative. The Republican party used to rest on three legs.
Now it's sixteen china plates spinning on little sticks and there's no one
interested in keeping them all up.
The compromise mentality that has gotten us here today will have these
political calculators saying in 8 years "You're going to make sure Stalin
wins if you don't vote for Hillary."
Everyone who continues down this line has no idea what it means to have
principles and to stand firm in the faith.
It makes me want to say back to them, "Shut up and sit down. You're making me sick
to my stomach!"
