Most Americans don&#8217;t want their children undergoing major surgery that will prevent them from having children later on. Most parents want to see more crayons and fewer drag queens in our children&#8217;s classrooms.<\/p>\n<p>Townhall reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Mighty and loud revolutions have happened in history and with some degree of frequency. However, the most insidious \u201crevolutions\u201d are the ones mentioned by James Madison in the quote above. That kind of revolution is, no doubt, the one the Democratic Party and Marxist Left have in mind for America because they have been trying to impose it upon the country for the past two generations.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>They almost succeeded but got too greedy the past four years, and the American people stopped them this year. But if we think the Left is finished, if we think they will give up, if we believe their attempt to continue their overthrow of the American Revolution of 1776 is over, then we are, of all people, most na\u00efve. They aren\u2019t going to stop; they are only going to regroup and redouble their efforts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>No doubt, the Left was knocked back on its heels a bit by this year\u2019s election. Their arrogant smugness, sense of elite superiority, the belief that they were right about everything and surely the American people would never reject them\u2014all of this received a severe blow and shocked them significantly. They still have no clue why they lost because they have no clue how utterly abhorrent their agenda is to true, patriotic, God-fearing Americans\u2014and to many others who simply want to pay their bills and not have the Left\u2019s communistic, licentious, anti-scientific garbage rammed down their throats.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The article notes:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u201cAn educated citizenry is a vital requisite for our survival as a free people\u201d (Thomas Jefferson). That education starts with virtue, something our education system has utterly and miserably failed to inculcate into our children the past several decades. \u201cTo suppose that any form of government will secure liberty or happiness without any virtue in the people is a chimerical [fanciful] idea\u201d (James Madison). Electing Donald Trump to the Presidency was a good start, but there is so much more to do. If the king is righteous but the people are wicked, the country will still be rotten and headed for destruction.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>The Left knows\u2014or will figure out soon\u2014that, even with Donald Trump as President, they will eventually win IF they can continue to control the education system of America (including the media). We better figure that out, too. We didn\u2019t get into this pit overnight and won\u2019t climb out of it overnight. But we\u2019d be wise to get started before the pit gets deeper.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another reason to remove the Department of Education from the federal government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Founding Fathers were very wise.
