Yesterday’s link was to Victor Davis Hanson’s “The Fragments of A Civilization” and a section subtitled “Sleepwalking to the Revolution.” Today, Ron Lipsman at American Thinker expands
on that theme and summarizes what conservative Americans are up against with
the Progressive left. In “The Revolution
the US Is Experiencing, and What If It Succeeds?,” he concludes:
Two final thoughts. First, even if
by some miracle, the Dems do not take control of the Presidency and both Houses
of Congress in January, it is just a matter of time until they do. The flood of
illegal immigration and the brainwashing – in school and by the media –
continue unabated. It is inevitable that conservative America will be reduced
to a voting minority. And then the revolution will be unstoppable.
On the other hand, perhaps I am
underestimating the strength, character and wisdom of the American people. I
recall vividly the fear I felt in 1967 and 1968 when American cities were
burning, a savage war tore at the very fabric of our society, riots determined
the selection of a president, and we seemed on the cusp of revolutionary
change. It didn’t happen. The good sense of the American people prevailed as we
restored order and proceeded to rely on our traditional beliefs and values to
right the ship. Perhaps we shall again.
Mr. Lipsman’s article is here. Some of the comments published with the
article are perceptive, if rather depressing.
