Interview with ElvisNixon.com


Pundit Press is proud to present interview number 17 in our ongoing interview series. Today we're interviewing the creator and editor of the site ElvisNixon.com. Check out this conservative site!

1. 
 When and why did you start ElvisNixon?

I started ELVISNIXON.com in the summer of 2009 because I felt I have a unique perspective.  I teach at a college in southern California. You may notice that I must use a moniker.  The reason I must remain anonymous is that working in academia one realizes very quickly that the Left in general, and Leftist intellectuals in particular, is a narrow minded, bigoted, and intolerant lot, as any group of Klansman that ever existed. They would stop at nothing to silence any questions of their orthodoxy. 
 
Italian Marxist Gramsci spoke of the need for the Left to "march through the institutions." This meant burrowing into the existing hierarchy of culture, education, media, and religion, and replacing those whose values represented Christian thought with secular humanists, homosexuals, and others who would undermine the old civilization to make way for a revolutionary society.  Not unlike the classic science fiction thriller Invasion of the Body Snatchers, these potentates enjoy the reverence and respect that holding positions in the establishment affords them, all the while seeking to destroy anyone with mildly centrist or conservative opinions.
 
Another reason I started the blog is because connections that are obvious to me are not always to others.  For example, I was astounded that nobody else sees the grotesque disparity between Mr. Obama's instantaneous admonition against a "rush to judgement" in the case of Nidal Hassan, the Fort Hood jihadi, and the Reichstag-Fire-like attempt by his cronies in the managed media to connect the TEA Party and people like Sarah Palin to the demented murderer Jared Lee Loughner. 
 
2. 
What is your favorite thing about running your site?

I most enjoy getting feedback from my readers.  I am always amazed that my microscopic voice garners responses from as far away as New Zealand, and even Dodge County, Georgia.
 
3. 
Do you have any favorites for 2012 yet?

Anybody but John McCain! (or Donald Trump. . . or anyone named Bush)
 
4. 
Has President Obama been better or worse than you expected?

Obama has been far worse than I expected. I knew full well that he would use the White House as a sledge hammer against the pillars of traditional western morality, appointing abortion zealots and those opposed to natural marriage to high office.  I did not expect that the man who ran as a "post-racial" candidate would be fomenting racial hatred in an effort to win elections.  His attempts to create an atmosphere of anti-white frenzy amongst Hispanics and others in response to the recent attempts to protect the citizens of Arizona from a massive illegal alien crime wave are nothing less than contemptible, if not outright dangerous.  His inflammatory language referring to conservative as "our enemies" is shameful and would be grounds for immediate impeachment has they been uttered by a conservative.
 
5.
 Anything else you'd like to add?

There are many more of us out there than the media would like us to know.  We are everywhere.  Don't believe the lie. Many of us see our job description, as "throwing sand in the machine," as John Taylor Gatto said.  Christian Lardner, author of Stuff White People Like and Whiter Shades of Pale, is a good example of this.  He is by no means a self-described conservative, yet everything he writes satirizes the self-righteous, self-absorbed, urban Liberal with all of his hypocrisies.  With the wit of H.L. Mencken, Lardner skewers his targets and makes you wonder how our managed-media and "entertainment" industry can get away with missing these buffoons and blue noses, all the while wheeling out slanderous, cliched stereotypes of patriots, Christians, and anyone who fails to worship at the foot of the Obama/Geffen/LA Times altar of pagan idolatry.
 
Genuine conservatives believe that there is far more to life than politics; it is the Liberal who stakes all of his hope in politics and political messiahs. We know that family, faith, and culture (which includes the fine arts as well as general entertainment) are all organic, meaning that, as Edmund Burke described, they are interwoven and not to be replaced by some tinkerer or mechanic at a whim without the possibility of unforeseen consequences. It is important to recognize that many of us have abandoned the playing field of culture and ideas in the hopes that winning elections will result in truly changing hearts and minds.  This is a grave mistake.  Meaningful change is not a top down affair.  It involves the personal as well as the political.  For too long, conservatives have allowed the Left to dictate popular music, literature, art, film and television; this must change.
