Better late than never. From Mark Glennon at wirepoints.org:
“Many believe we are approaching a tipping point, that we are on the verge of a ‘revelatory storm,’ that the truth is finally coming out…. What if we never reach it? What if the guilty are never held to account? What if we forget only to transgress again and again?”
Years ago in Texas, I went to a luncheon talk by Pres. Lyndon Johnson’s former press secretary, George Christian. He said he and the rest of Johnson’s staff tried to stick to just three themes in most every message from Johnson: “help the poor, educate the kids and beat up on the communists.”
The themes change but that’s widely accepted wisdom for politicians – maintain the discipline to stick to very few issues that work for you because that’s about all most voters can digest. Most research says the average American spends only about an hour per day following the news.
That’s far too little time for voters to digest the number and gravity of the catastrophes America and Illinois are suffering through, most of which were inflicted by our own government.
The far left now controlling Illinois and the federal government lie and lie and lie again, at a pace too fast for the public to follow.
They’ve flooded the zone, as said in sports. Most voters are simply too busy busting their backs to keep the bills paid, or are too indifferent, to get the entirety of what has become of us into their consciousness.
Most importantly, public understanding has been willfully retarded through censorship by most of the traditional media, big tech platforms and the government itself.
