Entry: The Real American Right: Part II Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_real_american_right_part_ii#13642 Post contents: Mr. Sabin. That was not mainly right on, it was highly entertaining. Thank you. What surprises me is to be in the presence (so to speak) of so many folks possessed of a ton of intelligence and industry and yet to see them, and others, repeatedly fall into magical thinking when it comes to the latest political saviour. A writer will limn the historical trajectory from liberty to tyranny and then, at the drop of a hat into the presidential ring, the writer will begin singing silly songs about how THIS time there really is hope etc etc. I just don't get it. The only way I can account for it is to observe, naturally, that even the best of any age is tainted, in not suffused, by the cultural corruption they find themselves drowning in and they lose their logical bearings. And, there is also the reality of the existential heresy of thinking salvation is achieved via politics - the nastiest of the innumerable 60s heresies. As to your last comments, I not only think we are capable of change I am positive we will change. The tyranny we live under will become ever more apparent as we baby-boomers retire and demand our rights :) Collectivists court chaos. They know that puts the natives at unrest and the natives will DEMAND Washington control them more. Talk about learning to love Big Brother... We lust after him in America. And he is slouching towards our altar. Sent at: 2008 05 16
