Useful advice

Kurt Schlichter, again making the point that needs to be made:
I remember when we used to talk about character counting, but you know what? Our opponents mocked us for being uptight and uncool – remember all the talk about how sophisticated European leaders all had mistresses? Oh, us repressed hayseeds and our sanctity of marriage nonsense! Well, moral purity came up for a vote and we were outvoted by the very same people who want me to rev up some oh-so convenient caring.

Well, no go-backsies now that those Old Rules would be useful again. You liberals made the New Rules, and by doing so you deprived yourselves of being able to leverage human frailty to weaponize our morality and score a victory based on collateral antics where you can’t win on substance.
Yep. And there's more:
My favorite part is when you libs start with the Jesusplaining to me. I have to say, the best social media is the social media where I’m bombarded with demands that I conform to their version of Christianity where just a few tweets before they were explaining how we’re stupid about having our “invisible sky friend.” I gotta break it to ya – there are no series of theological contortions that result in us having to allow the election of a monster like Hillary. But hey, you keep trying. Eventually, if you nag us enough, we’ll totally take your advice about how to live our religious values.

Oh, since Christianity is so important to you, now do abortion. Just kidding!
How did Shakespeare put it, in the voice of Antonio, in The Merchant of Venice?

Mark you this, Bassanio,
The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.
An evil soul producing holy witness
Is like a villain with a smiling cheek,
A goodly apple rotten at the heart.
Oh, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!

It's not particularly complicated, folks. Our betters don't give a damn about anyone's morality. They only care about getting their way. Whether they purport to think better of you, they don't give a damn about you, or what you think, or what you want, unless you agree with them and support what they think and want.

I enjoyed the taunting, but for me, the simple question is "what amount of personal sins equals supporting the taxpayer funded murder of close to a million pre-born babies each year? What amount of personal sins equals supporting the end of history's greatest bulwark against genocide?"

The left wants to hold conservatives to moral positions, which is fine, but they often forget that there are strong moral perspectives involved in their positions that override personal sins.
