Where to go from here?

When I started this blog, I wanted to use it as a means of explaining to people the true nature of conservatism. Since 'conservatism' constantly gets a bad rap from the press and from progressives and liberals, I also intended to help explain what true conservatism is not, but that is hard to do, since the opponents of conservatism have really been the ones who have defined it all of these years. Despite the best efforts of conservative talk-show hosts like Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, etc., the voices of the anti-conservative crowd seem to have gotten louder and louder. Why is that? Is it because we're not trying to scream over them? Is it because we aren't pushing back enough? Do we have to reduce ourselves to the level of our opponents in order to make our voices heard? I don't know. I wish I had an answer. All I know is that we have to adhere to our principles, if not to save the American republic and the Constitution, to at least leave a record for future generations to discover and study. If we give up now, the true ideals of conservatism will be lost to posterity.
