The Few, The Proud, The Minority

You just have to love Pres. Obama’s Thanksgiving message of getting along with one another, when just less than a month ago he was telling Republicans to get in the back seat and shut up. Enter Bristol Palin and she shows that the fangs are still there showing on Obama supporters. There is an innocent but popular show called Dancing with the Stars where fans get to decide what dancing duo continues and what duo goes home. Well, fans decided that Bristol should stay long after others (a.ka. liberals who know better) thought she should be gone. So the Right Wing Conspiracy once again was conveniently brought out as the only reason she was still on the show. Hmmm.

Wasn’t it just this last election that special interest groups came out and saved a massive wave from becoming a tsunami? Let’s see teacher unions and labor unions as well as other special interest groups did all they could to help losers like Harry Reid escape the guillotine they so deserved. Doesn’t sound like a grass roots all American movement to me. But in reality so what. Everyone can vote and vote they should and if they are a special interest group more power to them for getting their voice heard. And so I say so what to all the Bristol Palin detractors who thought she should be gone but a special interest group kept her in. More to her credit than anything for having the pulling power to flex her Palin power.

Yet another point must be made here. There are those who simply hate the new TSA rules for being searched before boarding a flight-rules that border on the ridiculous and insane. A movement was on to protest these rules by many people opting out of the scanner and instead choosing a pat down with the object being to slow things down and cause disruptions. Those who disagreed with these planners lamented that it was just a few that wanted to spoil it for the many. Hmmm.

Isn’t it the few on the liberal side who want to spoil things for the many in mainstream America? Always there are the freaks who want to ban “In God We Trust” from anything public. They freak out when prayer occurs. It only takes one person filing a lawsuit and a looney judge to overturn what the majority support. Can’t think of an example? Look at the amendment in California that passed recently affirming that gay marriage should not be legalized by supporting the concept that marriage is defined as being between one man and one woman. All it took was one judge and the whole apple cart was upset.

It seems that the minority has a way of getting their word out by being more vocal and thus loud as to what they support. This is after all a republic and not a democracy-remember we chose sanity in the form of a republic and France chose insanity in the form of democracy and got the French Revolution-guillotine and all. In the end I think the good guys will win and liberals will go back to the bottoms of rocks from which they came.
