Far Right, Or, Right On!!
Just Who IS Closest to Our
Founding Principals?
For years I have been flummoxed when
confronted by some angry voice demanding that I defend
(or change) my Far-Right beliefs; I was never very
successful in that regard.
However, thanks to my friend, Joe Larson, I now understand why
such a defense was so difficult for me - Because few, if any, of
us is really, "Far to the Right"!!
How did Joseph resolve this issue for me?
He drew me a picture... TWO pictures actually; the first, shows
'what we have been told', and the second shows 'the
way it really is'.
Clearly (we are told), Moderates are the group which
occupies the place closest to our Founding Fathers principles
and beliefs; the rest of us have moved far 'off center' in one
direction or the other.
Looking at the triangle above, we (ignorantly) agree with the
hypothesis the Moderates bring to the table, and then, we
confuse ourselves attempting to justify 'their' depiction
of 'our' beliefs.
Well, let's see. . .
It is as my Ol' Grandpa once said, "It's so simple, it plumb
evaded you".
The Far-Left is not 'progressing toward communism', they ARE
full-blown communists; it is the Socialistic Moderates, who are
moving toward communism.
Query: IF I AM 'FAR-RIGHT', WHERE THEN, DID I GO?
I do not espouse that we return to the Articles of
Confederation, nor do you hear me demand that we reinstate a
government based upon the Divine Right of Kings. As I have gone
nowhere, and demand nothing more than a restoring of
America to our Founding Principles, then, I must be
simply - RIGHT! Right?
We, the Right, are most closely aligned with our Constitution.
We ARE the Center.
Never defend Far-Right again. Blow it out of the water!!
