Talk Show Hosts Says Conservatism Advances Minorities
Greg Slisz just posted a new story on the Wabash website about last night’s WCU speaker, radio show host Tammy Bruce. As Slisz noted earlier this week, Ms. Bruce’s visit makes her the second homosexual to visit campus to discus how their particular political ideology is best for America in general and minorities (including the gay community) in particular.
An unabashed conservative, Bruce made a strong case for her beliefs before a packed crowd:
A significant amount of Bruce’s argument for small government stemmed from instances where the government had failed to act effectively. “When we think back in the past eight years, was government a point for good after Katrina? How good was government there? Is government good when it comes to the mold at Walter Reed hospital? Has government been good for you when you go to the damn DMV?” said Bruce. She added that the impersonal nature of government was a major reason that it was ineffective. “Any place where you are seen as a number or a feeder into a dynamic that is so big, there is no way that you can matter, and you’re in trouble. And that’s what government has become,” she said.
