COLLEGE-MADE LIBERALS ON THE LEFT, WHINING COWARDS ON THE RIGHT | 2004-08-21
We are experiencing catastrophe after catastrophe. This is the heritage of the moral cowardice of the group that calls itself the Greatest Generation.
That Greatest Generation backed down instantly at every movement that labeled itself civil rights or social progress or education. That Greatest Generation marched its children off to be indoctrinated by leftist faculties at public expense and did not raise a finger to stop it.
Why? Well, that leftist indoctrination called itself "Education" and the leftists shouted that you had better pay for a leftist indoctrination in the name of Education or you were against "academic freedom." It would have taken moral courage to refuse to obey them, and the group that calls itself the Greatest Generation never had an ounce of moral courage.
The group that calls itself the Greatest Generation produced legions of leftist kids, but they also produced the dyspeptic old right wingers who whine, "All is lost!" They are moral cowards in the same tradition. They are the legitimate descendants of the Greatest Generation just like the legions of college-indoctrinated leftists are.
In any catastrophe, there are people who stand and deal with it and there are people who run around in circles screaming "All is lost!" Those who run around screaming are not just pathetic cry-babies, they are dangerous.
We have a catastrophe here. Do we run around in a circle screaming "All is lost!" or do we deal with it.
