<<America does swerve right to left, but with each swerve, the center of energy inches leftward.>>

You're right, America and the West in general have been moving to the left. In fact i think you could view the whole of Western Civilization as a move from the Divine Monarchies and absolute property rights (to the extent that people were considered property) to today's social democracies where the power to govern comes from the people below not God above.

If Bush and the Republicans are expanding LBJ's Medicare, what hope does the right really have in terms of the big picture?

God willing! The Christian right will lose one way or another, it's not a tenable position.

You might like Saudi Arabia: no income tax and no gay marriage.
