You nailed it, Martha!  The problem is that, for all their moaning and groaning and gnashing of teeth at liberalism&#039;s destructive march through this country, most conservatives don&#039;t have enough conviction, enough FAITH in the correctness and righteousness--yes, RIGHTEOUSNESS--of their values and beliefs to actually want to make people conservative and to DO what it takes to convert them.

Liberals, on the other hand, have TOTAL faith in the correctness and righteousness of their beliefs and values, a faith that makes them zealous, stop-at-nothing, missionaries for their cause.  We conservatives can take the culture and the country back to the Judeo-Christian based values and philosophy that made it great.  It CAN be done and, as you so rightly stated, Martha, it MUST be done.  I just fear that too many conservatives, for all their wailing and lamenting, really don&#039;t want to do it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like the rest of you, I am looking for answers to the Republican&#039;s problem. I believe that the answer is to articulate the benefits of social and fiscal conservatism at every dinner table and lunch room in the country. We have to list every liberal (tyrannical?) premise and refute it with facts, logic, and history. 

I am a child of the Sixties and I remember such discussions took place on a frequent basis. The conservatives claimed that something bad would happen, but they didn&#039;t know what, so everyone questioned the moral legitimacy of conservatism. That is how the Social Revolution took over the country.

We can do it again with a Conservative Revolution. And this time, we have tons of research and studies to support us. First comes the one-on-one discussions, then comes the classroom questions, next comes the conservative viewpoint appearing in entertainment, and last of all comes culture change. We must do this!

North Dallas Thirty @#20: WHOA! Could you be any more disrespectful? Most people can&#039;t take seriously any message that comes in the form of verbal abuse. Too bad, because your comments were spot on, otherwise.]]></description>
