Adversary or compatriot?

Posted

GUEST COLUMN

Go along to get along, the siren song of the liberal. Evil is insidious, snaking its way into the fabric of everyday society, under the very gaze of those who abhor it.

Evil seeps in here, and a bit more there, until society wonders how it all happened, how things changed so we tolerate and accept behavior we once deemed detestable?

What’s more, these new deviant memes are now accepted as the norm, and expressions of distaste are viewed as hate speech and intolerance. We are enjoined to resist evil, and resist we must.

Why can’t we all just get along?

Our founding fathers created an adversarial system, both in the legislatures and in the courts.

We were never intended to be passive and agreeable. Originally, the president, the head of the executive branch, was required to be from a different party than the vice president, the leader of the Senate.

The adversarial system refines our legal doctrines through the burning fires of controversy, removing the dross of mediocrity through debate and reasoned dialogue. Evil and corruption only flourish in the dark, not in the light of truth and transparency.

It is incumbent upon every freedom-loving patriot to guard their freedom, to guard our values, to guard America’s honor.

Acceptance of small challenges to the virtues of our forefathers is the road to corruption. That’s how the frog got boiled.
