It is disheartening to see the amount of poison filling the airwaves, adn media regarding the civil war for control of the conservative party. This is utterly disgusting given the fact that we have always been a coalition of sorts. The intellectuals ask for a candidate who can be defended in their non appreciation for science and academics, both fields we must embrace as needed for our movement to continue. A candidate who only bases their experience on the civic community respected throughout history, and using only social institutions as their record cannot win a general election. He or she must command respect from more than one sector of our electorate. The social conservative must understand that we are not higher than the constitutional promises hammered out by the founding fathers. Yes, the Judeo-Chrisitan principles are a foundation, but so are other philisophical foundations that must also be respected. we do ourselves a disservice when we give our churches a pass on how they govern but demand to control society through a prism that is built on the weapon of shame only, without giving benefits to the non- believer. A person who does not attend a synagogue or a church asks, "why should I submit to your view of the world?" It is no longer enough to envoke sin, or in God we trust, because many simply to do not believe or associate this with mass control. The fiscal conservatives have broken their promises, plain and simple.

 

What we need to do is unite once again against common enemies

1.Regulation does not equal handicapping free market capitalism. We must promise a balance between desire and healthy competition and righteousness

2. We are going bankrupt, we must stop the use of government as a benevolent god, or as a insurance company for citizens. We need to stop the spending and promising of our future away.

3. Protect family unit, strenghten civic foundations of our communities from the ground up

4. Embrace science, it is neutral and if used correctly we can progress. There was a time when only the awe and reverence of the unknown caused many Christian men to wander into the unknown causing great discoveries. Now we train to become experts in our own world or subculture. ALL conservatives must enter the free market. all conservatives must learn to not have shame which is the first weapon of the liberals. We must take pride in ou work ethic, our producing abilities, and our vision for what is best.
