It makes me sick to think our children, grandchildren, great grandchildren (wait, this may take awhile)...
will be strapped with this debt. How do we stop the madness!!!
We beat the hell out of the Democrats in the 2010 Congressional races, or we heed Thos. Jefferson's admonition about watering the tree of liberty.
If we succeed at the former, then we have to start getting serious about developing a robust conservative academia that will go into the schools, colleges and universities to challenge the heretofor unchallenged hegemony of the left in educating our children. William F. Buckley, Jr., described the disease, and prescribed the cure, almost 60 years ago in
God and Man at Yale; regrettably, conservatives never really picked up on the long-term consequences of the liberalism disease that was just then beginning to infect American academia, and thus essentially left teaching to the liberals and the left. Is it any wonder then, that an unrepentant terrorist bomber like Bill Ayers was able to worm his way into American academia and end up with a plum tenured professorship? It should be an outrage, and it should never have happened; yet it did because we conservatives ignored the alarum sounded by Buckley and let liberalism/the left slowly take over the education of our own offspring. That should never be allowed to happen again.
