		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s not even that. The Dems have this &quot;hip&quot; and &quot;cool&quot; thing down to a science. I have a public sector union job and I assure you, I see it daily, they also have this self-hate of whites or Americans that lets them at once feel self-imposed guilt, and then feel good about themselves for hating what they are. Obama got re-elected in part, I am convinced (I was observing at a polling place), due to voting fraud, and in part because our &quot;bread and circuses&quot; population thrives on sound bites and &quot;reality&quot; shows, and were too lazy to see though his lies. It needs to become cool to be a patriotic American. Good luck accomplishing that as a party that most young people see as, at best, old-fogeyish, and at worst evil and racist (despite the fact it was the Dems that had a monopoly on the KKK back in the day). You can&#039;t realistically expect young people to embrace ideals that require effort. Most of them aren&#039;t going to do the research, that&#039;s &quot;doing too much&quot;, whereas a sound-bite from their favorite popstar icon is taken as gospel truth. This Syria thing has some Hollywood figures admitting they feel betrayed by Obama. Many won&#039;t say so because to criticize him makes you &quot;racist&quot; but their heart-felt opposition to his war-mongering could make this an ideal time to gain some points there. I would vote for my neighbor&#039;s goldfish over Obama or Hillary. They are traitors, but who cares in a world where it&#039;s &quot;cool&quot; for Americans to hate America? It isn&#039;t a &quot;light&quot; topic. We were supposedly, Bush said, winning hearts and minds in Afghanistan, but the fact we were simultaneously losing the hearts and minds of the upcoming generations seemed to go unnoticed, and now it may be too late.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[America will collapse as a country because melting pot has too many cracks in it.
Soviet Union collapse was unthinkable just few years before it took place also.
The causes of these collapses as old as times of Roman Empire which also collapsed.


The upside is, it&#039;s going to collapse around the ears of those, who worked so hard to cause it.



Humans will need to organize themselves by respective priorities and values, and ability to defend them.


Tower of Babel anyone? History is stubborn bi..ch.


Hope I&#039;m wrong.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We&#039;re fools not to accept support from whatever source or segment offers it--especially from those whom &quot;the young&quot; listen to and admire, however few of those there are these days.


The sneering condescension of the Party&#039;s &quot;elite&quot;--&quot;country club Republicans&quot; like G.H.W. Bush, James Baker, and most of the RNC who are &quot;embarrassed&quot; by powerful, popular, groundswell movements like the Tea Party is a guaranteed formula for defeat; and at this point, we can&#039;t afford any more defeats.


The point is to WIN ELECTIONS, not to field candidates who are most comfortable &quot;losing like a gentleman.&quot; 



The Party&#039;s stab-in-the-back of Katherine Harris when she ran for the U.S. Senate in Florida, and its idiotic embrace of RINO traitors like Specter and Chaffee &quot;because their primary challengers can&#039;t win&quot; (according to Karl Rove, who had nothing to say when both Chaffee and Specter were defeated anyway by Democrat rivals in the general election) are the most important reasons why I throw every appeal from the RNC for unrestricted contributions straight in the trash as soon as they arrive in my mailbox.]]></description>

It&#039;s a lot principles up against &quot;if it feels good, do it.&quot; If we are seeking results, what will a if you can&#039;t beat them join them get us if we go down their road? Was Bono&#039;s and Kutcher&#039;s appeal cool or spot on reality that made a real difference? It would be true that Bono and Kutcher were &quot;cool&quot; before being credible to conservative principles. So if Mark is saying be cool but also being right works, he is on to something. However, how well does it work when credible proceeds cool? 


We should stay engaged within culture because we know from history society is much more content, stable and sure than all the short lived razzmatazz  latest fads that are nothing but playing the game of what&#039;s cool (like Obama&#039;s Greek columns and punching the training bag on Oprah&#039;s show, and...).


As long as we are not the phony, pandering, deceitful clones of the left, yeah we should go for it; but to sacrifice principles to win the mush heads and the kool aid drinkers by emulating utopian do-gooder bleeding heart emotion controlled morons, we will be no better.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My example is Walton and Johnson on AM radio here in Texas. I think they are national so you should be able to get them. They have four different characters, one is gay, one is black, another is redneck, and the fourth is a white guy. You have to hear it to appreciate it, but they make fun of the left and the right when they are wrong and you cant help but laugh and agree with them. Its like they dont care between dem or repub, they care about whats right and logical, and it plays well. Its not pretensious and predictable.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One way to do it right is to use humor, but not in a mean-spirited way. The popular image of conservatives is already that of mean-spirited, selfish people, and prominent figures like Limbaugh and Coulter add fuel to the fire.


Reagan used humor in a disarmingly gentle way. So did William F. Buckley and Milton Friedman. Three very different personalities, but able to sort of poke a hole in a liberal balloon without seeming condescending. Where is the wit? The humor? The hope? Conservativism is now just one big, put-upon victimology.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People forget the most important figure in the conservative movement, Ronald Reagan, not only had a sense of humor, he could use it on his opponents without seeming derisive. And he took attacks to himself not with self-righteous outrage but with a head shake and a smile. This is a man who looked as his doctor after he&#039;d been shot and said &quot;I hope you&#039;re a Republican!&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I tend to agree that Obama was first elected on goodwill according to the image he presents, lifted up by the national Democratic establishment as the alternative to Hillary, essentially on the strength of a few good speeches. But then, what is George Bush without the family connections or the teleprompter? I don&#039;t even mean disrespect to the man, but without the family he&#039;s not exactly an exceptional human being, either. Sarah Palin, perfect example. She was mayor of a town marginally larger than my high school when her state GOP establishment did the exact same thing with her as the national Dems did with Sen.

But then, what is George Bush without the family connections or the teleprompter? I don&#8217;t even mean disrespect to the man, but without the family he&#8217;s not exactly an exceptional human being, either. Sarah Palin, perfect example. She was mayor of a town marginally larger than my high school when her state GOP establishment did the exact same thing with her as the national Dems did with Sen. Obama&#8211;and many people would have preferred her as the main candidate! At least Obama went to the same schools as the to-the-manor-born. You see it cuts both ways.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Obama is not a savvy politician - Bill Clinton is.  Clinton knew how to read the changing winds of politics and instantly adapt like a chameleon to the political colors of the moment.  Obama is an ideological hack who insists on his way as the only way. It was only through the savvy Chicago Alinskyite Marxist crowd who created and marketed him that he was able to be elected. On his own, he is nothing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Because the discussion was about conservatism and popular culture, not Obama. Anyway, was there anything really &quot;hidden&quot; about Obama? Prior to his first election news cycles were devoted to Bill Ayres and Rev. Wright. There&#039;s loads and loads of stories about his birth certificate and college records. We knew all these things--we just didn&#039;t care. Twice. Stop making lame excuses.


You can call him a poseur, and I&#039;d have a hard time arguing that--other than that you can&#039;t say he&#039;s not a savvy politician. He is cool and hip, as far as presidents go. He got the youth to vote. And if he is a poseur, frankly, he wouldn&#039;t be the first poseur in the Oval Office.]]></description>
