There is a short and very important video circulating on YouTube and Facebook: How Conservatives Think - Adam Strange - YouTube. In it, the basic difference is laid out between social conservatives and liberals: Conservatives insist on preserving a hierarchy as their moral imperative. Liberals insist on equal-rights-for-all as theirs.
On this blog we have explored this same issue under a variety of names: Conservatives Take, Liberals Give. The Conservative Agenda: Separate and Unequal. Conservatives will not stop taking away your rights until you start taking away theirs.
However we word this, there is a common and critical goal: get the word out, not just to like-minded liberals (i.e. preaching to the converted) but to everyone. Whether you repost this page, or help make Adam Strange's video go viral, please do your part to make sure everyone knows that today's social conservatives are never going to make America into what America is supposed to be.
You have presented a such a great perspective. But I think conservatism is not just an American problem. Conservatism has created a great harm for many people.
