Why Conservatives Suck
Why Tuesday Will Be So Sweet
I recently read a wonderful blog that beautifully summarizes what I've known all along: that in a historical context, conservatives are anti-American, greedy, selfish A-holes. "Oh now, come on," you say, "Obama is about to take office next week, why talk trash now?" Because it's important to see just how screwed up the conservative ideology really is. Please take a moment to read Robert Creamer's excellent article, and you'll see that wingnuts like Sean Hannity are just warmed-over Tories and Confederates. He quotes author Mike Lux from his new book The Progressive Revolution: How the Best in America Came to Be to show just how base conservatives have been historically, and how even though you hear a lot of BS from Republicans about patriotism, it is the Progressives who founded this country.
Progressives invented the American ideal and inspired the American
Revolution. Conservatives, then known as Tories, opposed it. Since then,
every major advancement in American freedom, democracy, social justice,
and economic opportunity has been fostered, fought for, and won by
progressives against conservative resistance. Now who's anti-American?

I've always felt there was something wrong about conservatives. Something just fundamentally incorrect about their ideology. These are people who always think they are right, who never question themselves or reflect on the consequences of their actions. They're selfish people who have used race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, you name it, to divide this country. Here's to the Obama era: a time of healing, rebuilding, and the awakening of decency in America. And the marginalization of Fox News, right-wing radio, and that crazy dude with the long hair (take your pick: Ted Nugent or Ann Coulter).
Peace.

Life lesson for jealous libs: you will suffer fewer nose bleeds when you get off your high horses. You will also feel a lot better when you stop believing that conservatives do not want everyone to be able to enjoy and take advantage of peace and prosperity. The difference is the manner in which it is to be accomplished. Conservatives believe that personal prosperity is accomplished primarily through applied individual efforts, not by way of all-encompasssing government handouts and they also believe that such efforts require the maximum of individual liberty to be successful. Thus conservatives desire smaller, less intrusive government to free people to be all they can be. Liberals on the other hand want the individual to look to a centralized bureaucracy for all of life’s needs. Thus they demand more and more programs and taxes to fund them. So why do liberals think they hold the moral high ground if their methods reduce freedoms, increase poorly run and wasteful centralized government spending and discourage individual talents? I was once a self-defined liberal, but I didn’t know why, I just didn’t want to be thought of as someone who didn’t hold the moral high ground. I urge each of my liberal friends to have an epiphany of understanding by realizing that being liberal and supporting liberal policies doesn’t make you morally superior. In fact, if you honestly analyze the hard liberal policies of the extreme left, you have to honestly acknowledge that they are counterproductive to social advancement. They rob people of drive, zeal, ambition and dull natural talents which mankind has depended on for the betterment of society for thousands of years. The logical conclusion of an all encompassing social big daddy government is that you lose the chance for personal prosperity at the price of losing most of your individual liberty. Also remember my liberal friends - how does the government make the money it spends? It doesn’t produce anything. It makes money by taking money from those who have earned it through their efforts. What happens when the earners stop earning or leave the country? You should all try reading the Fountainhead or Atlas Shrugged for a change of pace and to get a different perspective. If you don’t get your epiphany from doing that, then at least get off your high horse while you continue to believe in the liberal socialist philosophy.
Well, like I said, if it weren't for Progressives, you'd be a subject of the Queen. And actually, these days, that might not be so bad.
