America is not the social issue fixer-upper in disrepair Progressives make her out to be. Instead America is the worlds last great hope" and will continue to be just as soon as we are able to get our head above the water economically.
The wave upon wave of wars" on race women class and now gay marriage -- were devised to sink this magnificent city on a shining hill" into the depths of the sea and replace her with a European-style socialistic utopian theme park I affectionately call Progressive World."
Progressives there is a much simpler way to get to that happy place filled with e-ticket rides and no work: Hop on a plane to Greece and send us a postcard to let us know how its working out for you.
God bless them it seems Progressives honestly thought the sun moon and planets had lined up just for them that magical Greek column-themed Inauguration night in 2009 when Democrats owned Washington.
President Obama and Democrats had two years to do something about gay marriage if they wanted to. Instead the president waited to make his public service announcement" until now. Obama made no promises; he simply stated his opinion. The shrewd politician he is Obama understood the power of words and threw out a few to rally his base and raise Hollywood big-dollar campaign donations -- which goes to show you intelligence is not a prerequisite for fame.
Rally he did; within days Newsweek canonized Obama as Americas First Gay President" and plastered his face on their front page rainbow flag colored halo and all. I shall bite my tongue here for further comment and leave the editorializing to readers.
Especially during these days of pending economic ruin the war" on gay marriage is a waste of time. It doesnt take a rocket scientist to understand that as long as gays stay within the same legal boundaries we are all bound to; they can do whatever they want behind closed doors. Its their business. Im sure the GOP would be happy to accommodate them with reasonable things like hospital visitation rights. Sexual activity is between an individual God and the fly on the wall and has nothing to do with civil rights.
Conservatives must sit this one out and let nature take its course. If liberal men marry men and liberal women marry women and those who want to abort their babies do so it wont be long before liberals will social right" themselves out of existence. In this case patience is a virtue conservatives should wholeheartedly embrace.
Meanwhile our ship is sinking and Democrats are dressing themselves for dinner.
Focusing on nonissues intended to pit Americans against each other rather than acknowledging the iceberg were about to crash into was an exercise in futility. How far this one who once promised to bind us together has fallen.
It truly is still about the economy stupid." Maybe someone needs to declare a war on stupid."
