American Sniper And the Voting Booth

Well, reports are now that Clint Eastwood’s new movie American sniper [1] is about to clear a 100 million dollar 3 Day weekend, which is approximately double what it was supposed to do according to the Hollywood big wigs. This, supposedly, is astounding Hollywood, and it’s certainly shaking the left to its very roots. Indeed there are a number of people who have been quoted as saying that Eastwood has been successful at creating a Republican propaganda movie. Of course, what they don’t say is is that it’s entirely truthful and meticulously factual.

These collectivist morons figured that because it was such, it wouldn’t sell. Which is probably why they are in shock today. The message, the mantra, has been for years that anything strongly pro-american, pro- conservative, and unapologetically so on both points, simply wasn’t going to get anywhere. This hundred million dollar opening weekend has set that entire nonsense on its ear.

So, how does this affect the voting booth as the title suggests? Well the same thing applies. We have been told for years by the Democrats, by the press, of course that’s double clutching a, and by the GOP leadership, that if we get to unabashedly unapologetically conservative, will never get any votes.

I’ve been saying it for years, but that is simply untrue. The issue is that the American public is far more conservative then the left is willing to let on, and the GOP leadership as well. In fact they are farther to the right as a whole, then anything that either party has coughed up in decades.

There is a huge vein of conservatism in this country, & I think it is in fact the majority of Americans, who are under-represented and untapped both in popular culture and at the voting booth.
And, I wonder if the GOP is actually listening.
