A Day Of Work, A Day Of Apprehension

There was much to do, and so little time within which to do it. However, today, having been beautiful, and sending out little signals of an imminent change of seasons, was cautiously embraced. Tonight, I heard a benediction from the Democrat convention's opening night. A man, I assume him to having been clergy, was speaking of things dear to Liberal hearts. Minimum wages, concern for the down trodden, and other Liberal talking points were replete throughout his benediction(?) offerings to the assembled masses. So, the Left is now politicizing religion as a counter to the very Conservative leanings of the Evangelicals, who are, for the most part, of the Right in America. The appeal is obviously to those same Evangelicals, in the hope that they might see the light, and lean leftward in their thinking. This is one serious election period!

Then, there was talk by someone that presupposed that there would be great disappointment, and possibly riots, shuld Obama not win this election. Also, it was asserted that should, in fact, he lose, then this would be affirmation that America is indeed, a racist nation of ingrates. In other words, the "race card" is already being played against all those Americans who do not share Obama's, and the Democrats, positions. How insidious is this? Where is it written that this is his election to win?

Those of us committed to a set of Conservative values, must turn the mirror aside, and concentrate on the preservation of the values we hold dear. It, of course, is not a bit racist to simply disagree with the shared philosophy of the Democrats. It is not racist to fight against anyone who would devalue our standards, and change the face of the America we know, and love. Anyone who holds to ideas, and ideals, foreign to the best interests of ordinary Americans, is to be defeated in their attempt to speak for us. This includes not only the Democrats, but even wayward Republicans, aka RINO.

When the push to convince us becomes too burdensome, I go to the Heritage Foundation website,and listen to Ronald Reagan yet again offer the uplifting words we all need to hear. Do this my friends, do it now, and every time you feel yourself in need of a reason to reinvigorate. It works each time it is tried.
