GALLUP: “Conservatives” Are Single-Largest Ideological Group

At a time when the republican party is trying to separate themselves from conservatives as fast as they can, it seems that, according to Gallup,“Conservatives” are the single-largest ideological group. Who da thunk it?

Well, many conservatives recognize that. If you casually observe how the left castigates and marginalizes those who turn out in unparalleled numbers to the Tea Parties and then observe how they treat Sarah Palin (and her family), it's quite clear that conservatives matter. If conservatives were irrelevant, the left wouldn't pay any attention to them. But as is most often the case, conservatives go to work, live and let live and go about their business.

Conservatives, on the whole, aren't really and never have been activists to the extent the leftists have been. Therein lies our problem.

The sleeping giant may be wakening. Look at the huge turn-outs wherever Sarah Palin goes. Look at the Tea Party numbers. Something is going on here and the left is out to nip this movement in the bud.

We're tired of being treated like 3d rate citizens in light of the blatant failures of left wing ideologies that have become institutionalized over the years. We're heartsick to see this once great nation crumble before our very eyes specifically because of leftist policies. We're saddened and fearful that God has been relegated to the trash heap and the "right" to abortion has become sacrosanct. The left, in the form of extreme environmentalism, worship the creation and have complete disdain for the Creator. We see the utter foolishness in the "man-caused global warming" nonsense. We know what will become of this nation if we don't pursue domestic oil and gas production and build more nuclear power plants. Nationwide brownouts, so familiar to Californians, are inevitable, as are prohibitive gas and diesel prices.

Every policy the left seeks to institute has been proven elsewhere to fail. Why should thinking people fail to grasp that those leftists ideals are destined to fail here as they have wherever they've been tried? What is so difficult to "get?"

Conservatives get it and hopefully not too late. What we lack is leadership. When strong leaders rise to the occasion, you can expect excoriation from every outlet. It's what they are doing right now to Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh.

When jerks and corrupt ideologues oppose you, isn't that a good thing? It is. It's also very dangerous.
