1/ Of all the things the left surrendered to the right over the last 40 years, patriotism and morality are the two that have hurt us the most.

2/ The right doesn’t walk it’s talk but the left doesn’t talk it walk, too often sneering at issues of the heart with a condescension that has sent millions of people to the other side of the political divide.

3/ In truth, human beings are hardwired for connection to both tribe & moral sensibility. If you don’t give them a genuine version, they become easy prey for those who are peddling the counterfeit version. Patriotism and public morality are topics that should belong to all of us.

and to think they’ve demonstrated neither over the last 4 years is disheartening to say the least.

no words to express how this makes me feel. I'm 72, always voted blue. Now, nothing much but total disgust. Thanks always Marianne. (I live in Michigan! 😃)

So right! I am sick, as a leftist, of being told I support immorality.

.@marwilliamson will you speak out against @SpeakerPelosi holding the people hostage? We need a stimulus RIGHT NOW, but she is placing her personal war with Trump ahead of us. This is unacceptable.

What??? It's all manufacturing of consent. Enact change that helps people. That's how you win against the right "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel." Samuel Johnson

I agree. For those who want a deeper insight into what Marianne is saying I recommend her book 'A Politics of Love', John Lewis 'Across that Bridge' and Dan Rather's 'What Unites Us' to get a better understanding of what Patriotism and Public Morality actually are.

Yes! Wow, is it bravery to say these things out loud because it’s plainly obvious. Until the left gains back some decency they will never get any power back
