Why the Liberals are Winning, Part 1

“A REPUBLIC, IF YOU CAN KEEP IT.” ~BENJAMIN FRANKLIN

By Patrice Lewis | June 22, 2012 | WND

Exclusive: Patrice Lewis explains ’2 steps forward, 1 step back’ progressive strategy

Despite polls showing that America has more conservatives than liberals, it is an undisputed fact that our nation is becoming more and more progressive. If you doubt this, you have only to look at the change in our national values since the 1950s. We’ve had a shift to the left in religious values, family values, sexual values, moral values, ethical values, political values, educational values and just about any other value you’d care to name.

“[S]elf-described conservatives outnumber liberals two-to-one in America,” notes Tim Daughtry in his excellent column “How the liberal minority rules America,” “and yet public policy somehow ratchets only to the left. Conservative victories are measured in terms of how much the growth of government power is slowed, never by how much liberty has advanced.”

Why? How?

For purposes of definition, let me make one thing very clear: Republicans are not necessarily conservative. Far too many Republicans are just the flip side of Democrats and are quite content to march toward the same anti-constitutional socialist agenda as progressives, just at a slower pace or with different goals.

True conservatives can be defined as those who seek a return to governmental restraints as outlined in the Constitution and Bill of Rights; who demand the fiscal responsibility inherent in those documents; and who embrace traditional family values.

The progressive-ization of our nation can be summed up very simply: TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACK. The net result of this equation, of course, is an ever-relentless step forward. Forward. Forward. America is being dragged, often against her will, toward the ultimate progressive goal of socialism.

“A fundamental principle in politics,” says Daughtry, “is that a small number of people willing to push their agenda will always dominate a large number of people who just want to live in peace and mind their own business.”

As a group, progressives loath the minimal-government foundations upon which our nation was built. These people hate the idea of limited government interference and increased personal responsibility and arehoping to change all that. (Hope and change.)

Unlike conservatives (who are too busy making a living and raising their families to spend their lives in political activism), liberal stooges are often supported by government largesse, which allows them the leisure to work tirelessly toward advancing every progressive notion into law, every accusation of intolerance into an agenda, and creating new “rights” out of thin air.
