A most wise reflection, Elizabeth. Another way of looking at it: we have be careful of the battles we choose and the ground on which we fight them. We also have to consider our methods as well. I honestly do not think that the president’s commencement address at the University of Notre Dame will offer up any palliatives for his policy. I think he’ll steer clear of it, and instead deliver the usual pap that happens at commencements. I plan on not reading his words or listening to any of it on the news. I’m in the habit of tuning him out, because I find him utterly offensive.

It is better for us to use the occasion to talk among ourselves and refine our own minds for the battles ahead.

I think the ascendancy of the Left in America may serve a larger purpose: first, maybe as a chastisement for our sloth and intellectual torpor. Second, perhaps to slam us into reality and wake us up, allowing evil and devolution of society to shock us into reforming our lives and cleansing our minds.
