President-elect Obama: Now The Real Fight Begins

As a Conservative I am not happy about losing on Nov. 4, and I am not in the mood to "unite" behind Socialism. We did not lose because we were too Conservative, far from it. We lost because we were too moderate, and did not defend the principals of true Conservatism...life, liberty, an enduring moral order, and individual sovereignty. Too many Counterfeit Conservatives have hijacked our cause, moved us in a direction of appeasement with ideals and beliefs that are against everything America stands for, and everything Conservatives have fought against. Now is not the time to sulk, now is the time to fight! Fight as if our very life’s depend on it, because they do. We are about to watch as Socialism takes control of the White House, and now is not the time to be silent. Now is the time for us to draw a line in the sand and say "ENOUGH!"

We lost because Conservatives have gone astray, but from the ashes a Phoenix must rise, too many people have sacrificed for us to stand by idly, shrugging our shoulders, saying "what can I do?". Right now Ronald Reagan is calling to us, telling us not to be afraid to stand for the principals that have made this country great, the very principals he stood for. Unfortunately we cannot clone Ronald Reagan, so we must find the next generation of great Conservatives. We have lost this battle, and we do not have to like it, but there are many more battles to come that will require our collective strength. This is our "Time for Choosing," our time to stand on the shoulders of those who have come before us, and reclaim the very soul of America. In the words of that great Conservative Edmund Burke - "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil in America is for good men to do nothing."

As for me, "to do nothing" is not an option. I choose instead the course of the greatest resistance, because what is at stake is too great. I will choose to fight for my family, for my community, and for my country.
