Gay Marriage, as I’ve noted many times, is not a big issue to me. \u00a0As I’ve said a’plenty, I don’t care if gays can sign a contract that binds them to share property, grants them power of attorney, and regulates the terms of any dissolution. \u00a0If I ever marry again, on the other hand, I will not get a government license, because to me, marriage is a religious thing, ordained by God, and not for the blessing of some AFSCME employee who needs a stronger deodorant.<\/p>\n
No, there are many issues vastly more important than gay marriage. \u00a0We are at war. \u00a0Our civil liberties are being infringed from without and within. \u00a0Our economy is being, for lack of a less inflammatory term, sabotaged from within by our own government. \u00a0Our state is relatively healthy, but we are not an island; and two islands in Minnesota, the Twin Cities and Duluth, are resting on long-lost laurels and starting the spiral into becoming Cold Flints.<\/p>\n
All of these problems need serious responses.<\/p>\n
And at the root of all the serious responses, when you factor out all the variables related to the individual situations, is this; we need to eliminated the “progressivism” from power in state and national \u00a0politics<\/em>.<\/p>\n Let me be clear, here; I get alongwith liberals. \u00a0Some of my best friends and relatives are libs; they vote progressive; they drive Volvos. \u00a0But they’re human beings, mostly with redeeming qualities. \u00a0This isn’t personal.<\/p>\n It’s business. \u00a0“Progressivism” is a debilitating social cancer that must be destroyed (politically speaking). \u00a0It’s a total cultural war. \u00a0And the price of losing, if you are a conservative, is complete extinction for our society, our freedom, our prosperity, our way of life.<\/p>\n At the root of every real answer is one imperative; at the state and national level, “progressivism” must not only be defeated, but relegated to backwater pariah status.<\/p>\n And the way you do that is to expose to the people the pustulent rot behind the happy talk.<\/p>\n
