Within the limited context of a single issue one may be a lesser evil than another, but in the wider context of supernatural truth, they are all cut off at the root, thus I cannot vote for any of them.  The entire system has been defective from the beginning because they have ignored the Incarnation of God and the religion that is the salvation of man; they have opted for indifferentism and thus practical atheism as a nation.  Voting for the "lesser of two evils" in this context is like trying to staple the waves together.  It is true that to maintain civil authority one need not faith because it is a natural institution.  But that is an abstract proposition that refers to a valid legal claim and nothing more.  A man can have a legal claim to fatherhood, but that doesn't convert into asserting that he is in anyway praiseworthy.  In the concrete, in order for nations to obtain the blessings of God, princes must be truly wise enlightened by faith and thus they are obliged to render social worship to Christ the King.  It becomes apparent that the work of conversion is our primary effort in the civil order and that involves ourselves living an ascetic life.  If we do not know how to become holy, then we cannot effect anything outside of us.  And this work starts in the home.  Once that work is perfected, then maybe we could look beyond the home.  But you say that this work can never be truly perfected, precisely, that is why we should never look beyond our home in order to convert a nation.  Any other mode of action is to render our efforts vain, fruitless and misguided; it is merely an attempt to bypass our duties living as we do in a neo-pagan world and practice a subtle form of quietism.

why I am no longer a state leader in the Constitution Party, though individual candidates of said Party I may support...

Largely, not as interested these days in American politics-a lot of people that were Ho-Hum when Bush was in office, esp about the Patriot act are now all  :shocked: with Obama, all I can say is "hey, you were not concerned then, now you are, your problem, not mine!"...many told me the Patriot Act was not bad and why worry,etc....doubtful they are as blase, but for me, a little too late......

I find most USA politics are hypocritical.....then again, liekly other nations same boat or similar...

CSO! promote it, try to live it, etc....

Quote from: Belloc

that said, Catholicize the nation, throw out the constitution and start over in a Catholic Republic (monarchy would never work here, even with mjaoirty of Catholics-a pragmatic tolerance allowing).



That is not true. The modern day Americans are so weak willed that they are like clay, and the next generation even more so. A well organized and well positioned Catholic infrastructure (backed by spiritual efforts) will effectively tranquilize opposition to a Catholic Social Order. There must be, however, no allowance for anyone to organize and undo any accomplishments made during that time. The 4-8 year change in government MUST be done away with, not extended, if any kind of reconstruction is to be unhindered. The best form of government that can accomplish this is a monarchy or a dictatorship. I'd say monarchy would be best option, since the time of reconstruction will be the time to set forth a new course for the nation's Tradition and it must be set and determined within three generations.

Obama and the Dems are being aggressive and implementing their satanic agenda as much as democracy wil allow. I've been advocating this type of aggressive take-over for our side for years, but I've sadly learned the GOP is Democrat-Lite and does nothing but conserve liberal gains. They are hopeless. Our party choices are dumb and dumber. We're toast.

I think they should all be subject to random drug testing.  That'd probably get rid of quite a few of them.  Vote DRUG TEST!
