Because the tactic of eroding sexual morality and thus creating a weapon out of sex to indoctrinate and destroy the core spines and strength of the generation meant to replace the current one, was so much a part of the Left’s creation, they have a strong fidelity to their roots. Often times to the detriment of their own short term goals.

This has no impact on their ability to create a totalitarian doctrine and enforce it, namely because totalitarian regimes often destroy religions and replace it with a cult of personality. Often times a cult of personality run on sexual attraction, favors, or punishment. Obama + Putin + Ted Kennedy + Clinton= ? What does it equal?

I suppose it can be very convenient for a ruling class to create a permanent sexual liberty in the peasants as that would make snatching playslaves easier.

Compromising on gay marriage might seem like a good strategy. Apparently the people support gay marriage, so why oppose it?

Because gay marriage is a violation of the First Amendment right to freedom of religion. As the hysterical state enforces gun laws and hate speech so will it enforce gay marriage and force Christians, Jews and all other people, who believe gay marriage is immoral and wrong, to be silent and even “celebrate” gay marriage. To even abstain from celebration will immediately mark the person (and it will usually be a powerless very young person) for “re-education.”

I partially agree… that’s why I supported Romney. When I refer to RINOs, it’s the likes of Boehner, Graham, McCain, Rove, etc. As far as I can see they are the enablers of the Democratic socialist agenda. And , that seems to include most of the RNC. “Enemy of my enemy” they are not.

In diagnosis, I think everyone wants “purity.” In treatment, we want the best we can get. Consider diagnosis as the upstream culture and treatment as politics. Truth should drive culture, or perhaps at least the search for truth. Politics is the implementation of the general truth.

It certainly is wise to politically, as utility, to have as many agreeable and effective coalitions as possible. The “perfect is the enemy of the good” meme articulates that thought.

However, the perfect is still the guide and at times “the good” does not advance or even accept the perfect as it is understood and believed by the majority. We have that now. Perhaps two majorities: the old and the new Republican Party. The new believes the old is corrupt, self-serving, and ineffective.

Why should a larger tent always be viewed as the winning strategy?

We have an issue that can’t be solved with the old. It requires a new. And RINO’s just aren’t part of that new. They let us down; they didn’t have the answers.

The RINO/progressive claim that compromise is required is anathema to our country’s founding and to its endurance. Compromise is built in and adherence and belief in the system is the compromise. We’ve lost a majority who believe and adhere. We’ve already lost.

Something new is on the way.

“Thomass if we refuse to follow rules that we don’t want, what do we have? Who are we?”

Free.

I’m not saying lie about it. Just don’t comply.

I don’t mean that we should be lambs led to the slaughter, but I do insist that we follow the rules. By follow the rules, I refer simply to the Constitution, and the laws that have been legitimately enacted. Any actions that fit within those parameters are fair game.

One thing that always bothers me is the “throwing of stones at Rinos”. This insistence on ideological purity, or nothing, is a great mistake.

Ancient civilizations learned as a lesson that we now consider a cliche, but cliches have a basis. The lesson is, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”. I cite this to illustrate that anyone who opposes Statism is an ally. It matters little if they do not go as far ideologically as one would wish. Anyone who will stand with in opposition to the present trend is to be embraced. Arresting the trend is the highest priority. Reversing direction can only occur once this has been achieved. Then the degree and nature of the reversing turn can be debated.

The Conservatives who shouted Romney down with cries of Rino during the campaign, and withheld their support on election day, are culpable in the events that are occurring today. Can anyone now doubt that Romney would have been a step in the right direction? We need to take that first step, before we can contemplate the next.

“Yeah, pretty much”

I was going to say he was half right but didn’t want to feed the troll.
