The Left is very effective at destroying their opponents. She was being buried, as Governor, with the pettiest of ethics complaints… she effectively couldn’t govern. They wanted to destroy her very badly. Unlike other politicians, her children didn’t seem to be off limits. Why is that? There is no line the Left will not cross in order to win.

You want to win? Pay attention. Make note of KOs advertisers on MSNBC and write them letters and boycott their products. Same for ABC, CBS, NBC. Don’t put your money where their mouth is. New movie with Paltrow coming out? Don’t go. Make DVDs of “The Great Global Warming Swindle” and pass them out to friends and family instead of watching “Idol”.

My wife told me last night how angry she was becoming and upset with what was happening. I pointed out to her that the Left has been that way for a very long time because they believe just the opposite of what we do.

Most states have 50% or so of their state budget dedicated to their Dept. of Ed. and that is where the long term battle must be won. Last week, a Kansas teacher fought to have his contract renewed… they weren’t going to renew him because his school web page (they design their own) was deemed to be “too patriotic”. What alternative universe is that?

The Left/Right battle has been going on for more years than I’ve been alive and I’m 60. Nearly every aspect is either controlled by or permeated with people and policies of the Left. Governments… local, state and federal. Communications media… newspapers, magazines and television. They have been winning for a very long time.

Proof? Barney Frank’s boyfriend ran a homosexual prostitute ring from his DC townhouse years and years ago and he still holds office. Murtha took a $50K bribe ON VIDEO and he’s still in office. Thomas Jefferson, Democrat Louisiana.. Jeez… Ted Kennedy got drunk and ran his car into the water and the young honey he was taking out for his own version of “porkulous” was drowned and he’s had a lengthy career after that.

We have ONE fairly conservative candidate in the ring that proves to be fairly popular and the Left does everything in their power to destroy her.

The second front is money. All forms of government must be cut off from as much money as possible. No new taxes. No bonds issues passed. No “cigarette taxes to help The Children”. No government run lotteries (the Mafia did it much better with far less overhead ;). Has anyone else noticed that with this recent economic decline and local goverments in a sqeeze, the first thing they announce is that they will have to cut police and fire protection instead of the true overhead? The only difference between a welfare recipient and a government employee is that the welfare recipient isn’t interfering with my daily life. They are both a burden on society, just one is a bigger burden that the other. I suspect the federal government could operate just fine at less than 25% of the size while state and locals could probably get by at a 50% reduction. Make every effort to cut off their funds and force them to reduce their size significantly.

Do not budge on your ideological beliefs. Some people try to ignore the social aspect of conservatism but remain fiscally conservative. Doesn’t work. You don’t have to be a religious zealot to have moral values. You don’t have to be a prude to recognize that legalized drugs are bad for society. Abortion? Well, if you don’t respect life, there is no point in having a debate with you. Behaviors that are destructive to the family and society should be strongly opposed. There used to be something called “shame” associated with them. Nothing seems to be shameful any more.
