A Loss of Liberty?

A recent visitor to the Barnyard brought the typical inane argument that the Bush adminisistration is trampling our rights and the Democrats adhere to the Constitution more closely. As a side note they claim to love democracy and lament for the Dems to be more socialist in their agenda as if they are not already. My rights as a law abiding citizen have not been violated, and those that scream about censorship are not in jail, Noam Chomskey, Michael Moore Al Franken are free as anyone to speak as anyone. The fact that very few choose to listen to them is their problem not mine. Their answer force people to listen to them through the "Fairness" doctrine.

The MSM is going in the hole as the new media of talk radio and the internet take off and their backers on the left are crying foul because they are losing audience and money. Could it be the lack quality reporting, the obvious unadmitted bias or the fascination with the promiscuous trash dredged from the gutters of Hollywood? Despite the Lefts best efforts at indoctrination America still seems to be sailing true.

There was a record turnout at the CPAC with lots of energetic young folks in attendance and from all the pictures and feedback I have gathered from Blogger Row, the conservative movement is not only as bright as ever but growing. Yeah, there was some fun team on team heckling in our good sporting tradition, though there was a clear consensus among the gathered to stick to issues and great enthusiasm for those that came forth with strong solution based ideas, thus Newt Gingrich's and Mitt Romney's strong showing and rousing approval.

The main complaint about Mitt was his drift to the right and was it genuine, I believe it is as his deep Christian faith would require. Shouldn't we welcome converts not call them flip-floppers? My own positions have moved to the right as I have become better educated in the facts and not the retoric. The other perceived proplem is the Mormon issue, a sad, sick litmus test. Mormons are a serious part of American history and played a huge role as pioneers after all their Creed recognizes our two most important documents, The Declaration of Independance and The Constitution and they are the only mainstream American sect of Christianity, all the other sects came from Europe.
It seems the only ones talking about it is the MSM and the lefties since Mitt has picked up support around the Christian sphere of influence. We all love the LDS commercials and their Christian outreach programs, one of the strongest missionary programs for Christ.
Mitt Romney is the man to lead America into a new century as one of the very few that sees the opportunity and promise before us and can maximize that for all of us.

By the way, this is the guy we need to move America forward, Mitt has his eye to the future and can detail a path on how to get there, no other candidate can do that but Newt and Newt, he is that big cat lurking in the shadows of the bright lights, public but not running...?

I like Rudy Giulliani alot and think he would be a solid POTUS, he may have a bit to much baggage as his own family is weighing negative and that will hurt among the conservative base. Mitt Romney has all the conservative bona fides in spades plus a few and is a great role model, plus the hair, can't forget that...
