A Special Number - 42...

824 – (4-15-13) Hi, this is The Candid Conservative with today’s minute on A Special Number…

By good fortune I had the opportunity to see a great movie this weekend. It was as chock full of conservative principles as a Ronald Reagan biography. The movie was “42”—the story of the first black American to play major league baseball. From start to finish, this moving film made one thing clear – justice, equality, character, and truth are team sports. The most powerful message, however, came from Jackie Robinson’s role model. He made it clear that his missions were to pay his own way, feed his family, win, support his team, and prove himself the equal or better in talent and character of any man. Notice there was nothing in there about demanding recognition, fair treatment, or handouts. Jackie Robinson was anything but a victim and his example offers a beacon to any American – regardless of color. Last bit of advice from a candid conservative finishing No. 824? Go see “42” and then start wearing it.

I’m Dr. Carl Mumpower thanking you for spending a lot of minutes with a candid conservative…

Conservative Sell-outs...

Conservative thinkers have known for some time that the Democratic Party has corrupted itself beyond redemption potentials. They’ve made too many promises to provide something for nothing to have any chance of returning to a platform of reason. What hope there’s been for conservatives has centered on the redemptive potentials of the Republican Party. Recent events have not rewarded that anticipation. In every area from illegal immigration to gun control to cutting spending, Republicans continue to cave. Most recently came the proposal for background checks on gun purchasers. On the surface this idea seems like a no brainer – except that it’s going to regulate the good guys and do next to nothing to stop the bad guys. It may make politicians feel good, but it’s at the expense of real interventions and the liberties of responsible citizens. Conservatives should never mistake motion for action – or most Republican officials for being sincere to stated principles.

I’m Dr. Carl Mumpower and you just spent a minute with a candid conservative
