It is always important to know and understand your opponent’s perspective. In our political situation, understanding may be out of the question. I can see their position. I can’t figure out how in the hell they arrived at their position. What kind of idiot thinks that Open Borders is a good and sustainable idea?
Below is an article that the Coastal Liberals support. They are so afraid of former president Trump that they ascribe to him all of those attributes that our side accredit to Adolph Hitler, Che Guvera, Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse Tung and Joseph Mengele.
In a different article, this same rag makes the following statement:
“Most Americans are not ideological, meaning that they do not possess a coherent and consistent worldview that drives voting and other political behavior. In the aggregate, the American people tend to take their cues from trusted elites about how they should think about politics and what they should do about it.”
Can that be true? Most of us out here in the sticks really aren’t “political”. But I believe that we do have an ideology. Us Christians, whether we be Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Pentecostal, etc., believe in a few good things that are based on our collective faith in the Lord. Those who aren’t religious, still have a belief in the Golden Rule. “Treat others as you would have them treat you.” Most of us believe in some form of charity. We believe that it is a good thing to help others who can’t help themselves. Our issue with the liberals is that we prefer to make our own choices as to who gets our charity, not having it forced down our throats and stolen from our wallet or bank account, or our taxes. It is a matter of choice.
Our ideology also includes a need to work for what we get and get that for which we work. Our efforts, our energy, used to obtain those things we need or want. We also want sustainable programs. We are so very tired of government programs that are best described as self-licking ice cram cones. How many “temporary” government programs are ended? Damned near zero! The bureaucrats running them have one main ideal: To keep the paychecks coming!
Years ago, I was instructed as a contractor to do something special. I was directed to work my way out of a job. My job was to teach and train the locals to do what I could do. I was instructed to train my own replacement. And I did! Even though that knucklehead Mr. Obama yanked us out of that country as we were having the best success, my counterpart was able to take over and continue the work we had been busting our ass on. I did it! I worked my way out of a job! Show me a current government program that tries to do the same!
Back to the point. Liberals either don’t understand us, or they fear us. They are trying hard to demonize us, following Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. They want to energize their followers and the uninformed crowd that us conservatives are going to destroy their way of life. <chuckle> And it’s true! We do want to destroy the way of life these poor idiots are enjoying. Their self-destructive, unconstitutional, illegal ways are destroying our nation. They love to be able to divide our children into victims and oppressors. We want that to stop. They are injecting immoral, vulgar, ideas into our kids. They think drag queens are good teachers. They want our kids (and us) to think that there are more than two sexes. They want to ignore the science. They want to get to choose who gets our charity.
They do those things because they don’t believe that us country folk are smart enough to do it ourselves. Not intelligent enough to make our own choices.
They call us a dark power. A basket of deplorables. Near-Nazis. Authoritarians. Semi-Fascists.
Look around you. Those oil-field hands at the other table in Billy Bob’s, eating their Mushroom and Swiss burgers, are Semi-Fascists? The woman in front of you at the H-E-B checkout line is a dark power? The guy on the other side of the pump, filling diesel into his 15-year-old F-250, and frowning at the price, is a Nazi in disguise?
Nah . . .I don’t think so either.
Go vote!
