A “Persian flaw” was originally a flaw purposely included in a handmade carpet because, the thinking was, only God could aspire to perfection. ’Tis true, too, that perfection is not a thing of this world. Given this, you may wonder why I write in my title that conservatives must stop issuing disclaimers to the effect of, “We all know our country is not perfect.” Well, consider a little analogy:
Imagine you were giving a speech in honor of your mother and opened with, “Now, we all know my mother’s not perfect.” Might there not be some stunned silence? Is it possible some listeners might view you as a bad child? Moreover, if your mother heard your disclaimer, mightn’t she be hurt?
The Comment section of online publications is the new front in the ongoing Cancel Culture Battle.
Big Tech and Big Media are gunning for the Conservative Voice—through their Comment Sections.
Canada Free Press wishes to stay in the fight, and we want our fans, followers, commenters there with us.
We ask only that commenters keep it civil, keep it clean.
Thank You for your patience and for staying aboard the CFP ‘Mother Ship’.

The most effective response is always what points to unity. It is not that the US is perfect, or in need of improvement. It is that this Nation is ours; it belongs to all of us as Americans.

I am a staunch Conservative, and everyone I associate with is also a staunch Conservative. Not once have I or anyone I know ever said... "My country's not perfect."

Thank You Selwyn Duke and Jesse B. for your comment. Either "We the people" are responsible for the "experiment" to continue for future generations, even as America's Founding Father declared from the offset: George Washington in his First Inaugural Address, 30 April 1789 stated: "The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty, and the destiny of the republican model of government, are justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally, staked on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American People." While enemies of our Constitutional Republic strive to create a Marxist Utopia, which is beyond possible, placating their hate of America has had dire consequences for our children.
