Every other camp has one. Even the far left gets a say because journalists know where to find them for comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-1160566645932070312006-10-11T21:37:00.000+10:002006-10-11T21:37:00.000+10:00Mark, thanks for the comment.

There's some chance this will change, as the leftist orthodoxy is breaking apart, especially among younger men. I'm hoping that over the next few years we'll continue to attract quality intellects, in sufficient numbers to at least become an acknowedged part of the political landscape. That's probably the next step we need to take.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-1160452749275833812006-10-10T13:59:00.000+10:002006-10-10T13:59:00.000+10:00It's so strange.

Perhaps, I thought, socialism was actually, definitively being discredited.<BR/><BR/>Here it is 15 years later and I don't think I have ever had a stronger feeling of dread about the future of my country, my people, in the West. This insane multiculturalism! The naivete is as incomprehensible to me as the naivete of the socialists was then. And the socialists have learnt nothing from the collapse of the Soviet empire - they tell themselves that it wasn't a truly socialist country and that their flavor of socialism will be different. <BR/><BR/>My ray of hope is that there are other people out there who feel like I do and you do. I do get a terrible feeling though, a terrible intuition, about how bad things are going to get before they get better. If only we could get the white conservative Westerners of the world into one locale so we would have concentration and strength in numbers.MnMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110007186831549266noreply@blogger.com
