It’s Time To Stop Allowing Liberals To Determine The Conversation

If it’s acceptable for liberals to vote for a Supreme Court justice who is pro-abortion, why isn’t it acceptable for conservatives to want a justice who is pro-life?

Why is it that only liberals’ ideas and policy positions are acceptable? Why is it that an accomplished, Catholic, female, law professor from Norte Dame has to take insulting and nasty comments about Catholic dogma from a Jewish Senator, due only to the professor being pro-life? And considering that the anti-abortion/pro-life position has long been the tradition of our entire society, why should conservatives accept the deviant position of abortion, any time, anywhere, funded by taxpayers, as a standard?

Now that we have Donald Trump in the White House, and now that we see him every day poking liberal dogma in the eye and getting away with it, it’s about time that Republicans grew some backbone and began fighting back at prejudiced, liberal/socialist ideas.

President Trump’s appointees for the vacant justice seat on the Supreme Court need not apologize for being pro-life or capitalists or patriotic Americans. With all of the news about Planned Parenthood selling the body parts of babies they have aborted, and treating the sale of the body parts as a legitimate business, it’s time that conservatives threw these things back at anti-American, leftist, Senators during the times when official interviews and hearings are held. I’d be willing to bet that there are many Democrats who have never heard that Planned Parenthood is doing such horrendous things, and the hearings of Supreme Court appointees would be a good time to make these things public knowledge.

And take any liberal position, for example the legalization of marijuana: Why in the world do we need another, new and additional legal intoxicant with which to trap our young people into a lifetime of dependence? It might be worthwhile to confront the idiocy of legalizing another drug with which to escape the daily hum-drum responsibilities of life and tell liberals to man-up, face reality and do what must be done to support themselves and their families, and stop trying to find a new escape from the realities of life.

I get sick of watching conservatives take the defensive position on any and all issues and attempt to defend themselves for being good, patriotic people, and all because the leftist press will rip conservatives to shreds unless they buckle under and at least give lip service to liberal positions. We have nothing to apologize for, as Trump’s successful policies have shown, as he moves forward and reverses all of Obama’s unconstitutional rules and regulations. We need to follow the leadership of our president and take the initiative for a change. I believe the mass of Americans are ready to follow if they understand the seriousness of the issues and hear the true difference between right and wrong policies.
