The lack of "there" there rests with a general population that while it might lean a bit right from time to time is increasingly averse to the concepts of strong morality and personal responsibility. Conservatism sounds painful to these folks. They don't want to hear painful truth and harsh reality when outright lies and nebulous concepts like hope and change help them rationalize their own diminishing existence. The left points fingers and offers up SOMEBODY to blame. <br /><br />The right has chosen to win elections by default rather than speak the words the general populace simply doesn't want to hear. Sadly, deception by omission is what it takes in today's America. We're dying by increasing degrees of ignorance and indifference. Conservatives want to be heard by a significant percentage of the population that simply doesn't want to hear what we have to say. Doesn't mean we're wrong, just that too many fools have not yet suffered enough to willingly embrace the truth. I've come to believe that they actually want to be lied to. Sad, eh? <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-6631411396270641332014-11-13T14:08:17.463-06:002014-11-13T14:08:17.463-06:00Ultimately, they're the same thing.

I rather suspect it's more of the latter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
