The Values March in Washington DC this weekend marks the beginning of a
new era. Ostensibly a disparate group of Americans each having their
own issues, in actuality this was the first time in which the premises
of Liberalism were seriously challenged. It reminds me of the small
breaches that first arose in the flawed St. Francis Dam (pictured
above) above the San Fernando Valley before the dam finally broke
sending water crashing all the way out to the Pacific Ocean.
Liberals
in both major political parties apparently just don't get that their
time in government is coming to an end. Just last week, a California
Assemblyman who supported family values was forced to resign for
talking trash in front of an open microphone in the legislative
chamber. This
faux pas was a
relatively minor infraction of decorum. In contrast, Congressman Joe
Wilson is widely acclaimed for shouting out during the President's
speech to a joint session of Congress. Both actions were inappropriate,
yet the electorate can understand and appreciate the Congressman's
frustration at the President's duplicity and obfuscations on health
care.
What we are seeing is the beginning of a spiritual revival
in which the social conservatives who have always opposed abortion are
beginning to persuade the majority of citizens toward their way of
thinking, because the alternative just doesn't work. As the majority
shifts to oppose abortion, the tide is turning against liberalism.
Americans will no longer tolerate egotism in government.
