When I use the word leftist I am not talking about all Liberals...first let me say..It is no mystery at all, really why it seems leftists are against ANYTHING that is established in the society they inhabit.As I see it, they are always against the status quo, whatever that might be -- and America is a very religious country. To Leftists religion is a big, complacent target that they itch to tear down -- just as the Soviet Communists once did.the way I se it, Modern Leftism is just an attempt to achieve goals by stealth and attacking religion is an integral part of that. Leftists cannot stand any creed but their own -- with their own superior wisdom being the core of that creed.
"I use to be many years ago what you would call a classic liberal..(like JFK) I began voting for Republican presidential candidates, and thinking of myself as Republican, only after it became abundantly clear that people with my views on abortion, prayer in school and other moral issues were no longer considered welcome in the Democratic Party. A whole lot of us crossed over, taking our whiteness and our Christian beliefs into the party of what you leftist like to call the country-club set. We didn't feel so much that we had abandoned the Democratic Party as it had abandoned us. Borrowing the spirit of the "No Irish Need Apply" mentality of my grandparents' time, the Democrats posted a "no pro-lifers need apply" sign on their party doors....
So if the Republican Party has become the "white, Christian party," as leftist charge, it's partly so because the Democratic Party has made white Christians feel so uncomfortable in its ranks. The Democrats have bent over backwards to please minority groups - blacks, gays, angry feminists and atheists (no offense Gen) at the expense of us old white guys, who grew up not feeling guilty about being white or Christian..I love my what I believe.. and I hold on to it with all I have!
