A highly recommended book for Conservatives called: “Confrontational Politics” by Senator H. L. Richardson, Retired.
One interesting topic discussed in the book is a tactic often used by the left to gain political ground. They create conflict for something they want to change (i.e: Gun Rights), then purposely state large demands (ban all gun rights in a certain state), then they compromise a little bit (OK, let’s just have a ban on “Assault Rifles”).
Then they complain to the media about the compromise that was “forced upon them” by the heartless traditionalists. Then, with a small amount of new ground gained, the left patiently awaits the next opportunity to create a new conflict to start the process all over again. In the book, “Confrontational Politics” this is known as the “salami technique”.
This is also called gradualism. That’s how they chip away at our constitutionally guaranteed rights until there are no more.
And remember, Lenin stated it best, “We advance through retreat.”
So don’t worry so much about what politicians say, just watch what they DO!
