Liberals still don't get it

Just as I was ready to walk out the door this morning, I happened to see Michael Moore on Today. Seeing this man who so many conservatives have come to revile and hearing what he had to say (and yes liberals, I heard Moore out), his comments confirmed something that I have been saying ever since the election: Liberals still don't get it.

Moore actually tried to say that a majority of Americans agree with the left. They want gun control, said Michael Moore (increasingly, polls indicate that they do not), and they are "pro-choice" (again, recent polls show the pro-life side is winning the battle for hearts and minds), Republicans merely won the election based on fear alone.

What people like Michael Moore simply refuse to understand is that Middle America, the great "silent majority," simply does not share their secular, socialist vision of American society. The vision of the left is not rooted in America's constitutional heritage, but is rooted instead in the Godless secularism of the French Revolution, and to a lesser extent, it is rooted within Marxism as well. Middle America doesn't want socialism, nor does Middle America want Godlessness. Until people like Michael Moore and the extreme left of the Democratic Party understand that, it will be a dark night in the political wilderness for their party.
