WHAT IS A CONSERVATIVE?
DISCLAIMER: This Author UTILIZES SOME SARCASM RE DEFINING CONSERVATIVE THIS is HOW THE NATIONAL DEBATE IS TO BE --- SOME Intellectual but ETHICAL Provocation BUT NO PERSONAL AD HOMINAM ATTACKS or cheap shots BELOW THE BELT.)
A conservative is the kid who stole your lunch in grade school. HE IS A GUY WHO THINKS MORALS AND ETHICS ALL HAVE TO DO WITH SEX, not behavioral right and wrong. For instance, itÂ’s all right to steal billions from poor investors, and not remember what happened. But, itÂ’s a damnable offence to sleep with an investorÂ’s wife. I once knew a man who was so far right, he was wrong.
the business of conservatives is:
business.That is, making more money than you need. And, of course hating and reviling the poor for their poverty. Like somehow they like poverty. And, just want to not work so they can sit around and enjoy their impoverished circumstances. Somehow, I just canÂ’t see Jesus in a three-piece business suit promoting his corporations financial interest, at the expense of everyone else. A moderate republican is a Democrat. A conservative democrat is a republican.
CONSERVATIVES ARE SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTERS
BEWARE OF NICE-GUY-ISM THE PERILOUS POLITICAL "LIKEABILITY ISSUE"
People will always elect someone they think is a nice guy over a competent honest guy. That’s why, behind the scenes, politician’s practice their nice guy routine. Best example, George W was a nicer guy than Al Gore, but not as competent. Not that it wasn’t Gore’s fault for NOT JUST BEING HIMSELF, and let nature take its course. Any man who is afraid of being himself in any arena, doesn’t like himself or thinks he’s not good enough, consequently, neither do the people who subconsciously sense it. If you try to be someone you are not, you are not ---you are nothing---because you forgot who you are; and, especially where you came from. And, if you forget where you came from, you definitely do not know where you are going. Can’t lead a nation like that. Never trust a politician who says, “Trust me.”

CONFLICTING JEFFERSONIAN AND HAMILTONIAN VIEWS. Essay in Progress
MILTON FRIEDMANÂ’S CAPITALISM???:
Conservatives love Money more than God. Unless they get a tax deduction. Yet they claim God is on their side. I wonder if Rev. Dr. James Kennedy of Fort Lauderdale TV fame, still wants to put all sinners in jail. Liberals love Justice and Righteousness, but some are not sure about God. Why? Because He made conservatives. Some liberals believe. if God really existed .you should be able to serve Him with legal process, that is, sue him for creating you know who. (GEE THAT BOLT OF LIGHTENING JUST MISSED ME—help!!!) Conservatives say they favor Free Enterprise Capitalism, but they really support and promote Monopolistic Capitalism. Anyone, even Liberals, reading the works of economist MF comes away with one word on their lips---genius. However, Uncle Milty has a deep-rooted flaw in his economic philosophy. No. Not in his philosophy, but in the timing and current application of his capitalistic philosophy. It is painful for admirers to state it, but here it is: Milty, You speak of capitalism from the Adam Smith perspective of invisible hand working in the purity of Free Enterprise Capitalism. But, the present day reality is, we do not have free enterprise but rather we exist in a world dominated by MONOPOLISTIC OR OLIGOPOLISTIC CAPITALISM. The end result is an ongoing gradual destruction of the free market, cutting off new entrants etc. The demise caused by government and mega-corporations. Can this be reversed? Most like not. UNLESS, you and SAMUELSON et al demand it. You are our last hope. Finally, need I remind you with the advent of the new genome movement and of conceited elitism, that social Darwinism will once again raise it ugly head. A repeat of history worse than fascism. A conservative prefers taking to giving. ''The Economist"'
NO ONE HARDLY SAID A WORD---NEVER STEAL; ANYTHING SMALL
A conservative prefers taking to giving. Greed is and was good, the Greedy 80s and the $500 Billion Saving and Loan Scandal would not have occurred. By the way, no one went to jail. Never steal anything small??? Or, if they went to jail---It was country-club jail. We have two-prison systems- one for the rich and powerful-and the other for the rest of us—with guys winking at you in the shower. Its like THE QUEEN OF MEAN (Mrs. Generosity) hired the other prisoners for $1.00 and hour to serve her every need and desire. I don’t want to upset you, but did you know that 500 BILLION loss is still being deducted from our paychecks. That’s what the Daddy George Bush tax hike was all about, and why he lost to Clinton. Read my lips, no new taxes unless the rich will have to pay. For only the little people. NAFTA was the beginning of The United States of North America-USNA. And, no one even asked us. do republican family values include a living wage job
QUESTIONING INTEGRITY: If you find an Irish, Jewish or African-American republican conservative, you have a God-given right to question their integrity and sincerity. Hi, Clarence, how are things with you? Do you sleep well at night
RIGHT-WING AND CONSERVATIVE CHEAP-SHOTS AGAINST LIBERALS:
Seriously, MAINTENANCE OF the balance of the national discourse necessitates conflicting DEBATE between conservatives and liberals. Two hands of same body politic---debate d essence of republican-democracy. However, problem arises WITH EXTREME RIGHT OR LEFT WINGS . We are now beginning to hear repeated reference to the follow label and McCarthyism false accusations against liberal by right wingers and some conservatives. These politically and morally slanderous words are: Those liberals are left-wingers, socialists, (meaning Communists, of course) troublemakers, who hate and do not love America, are anti-American, unpatriotic, fanatics, radicals. Well, that sort-of vituperative name-calling accusation can be made by Liberals against conservatives and right-wing; such as: Fascist, Nazi, Bubba-Brain, Reactionary, Elitist, Sadistic Rich class-warriors against the Middle Class and poor, radical unpatriotic undermining then U.S. Constitution and in the Bill of Rights Freedoms, Corp"RATS" (as an elderly gentleman called them at the Mall), Greedy GOP republicans meaning "Greed Only-For-Me Profiteers." i.e. Let us not start down that slippery slope of condemnation and accusation!!! Recent Example: Pink-pantsed, bow-tied encumbered CNN'S TUCKER ''TUCKIE'' Carlson's MEAN-SPIRITED ad HOMINAM attack on RETIRING FLA. SEN. BOB GRAHAM--- WHO TUCKIE DOES NOT EVEN know ----HONORABLE senator's perennial public SERVICE based upon HONESTY, integrity and a search for the TRUTH from a non-partisan rather than prejudicial partisan view.
THE EVIL OF PERSONAL BOYCOTT:
INEXCUSABLE PUNISHMENT OF HELEN THOMAS, DONAHUE, MAHER, GLOVER etc.???
WHY AMERICAN LAW CREATED THE FOLLOWING TORT:
TORTUOUS INTERFERENCE WITH:
ANOTHER'S CONTRACTUAL, BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL RELATIONS!
(TORTUOUS ---SOMETIMES SPELLED "TORTIOUS" (YES, YOU CAN CONDEMN THE FREE SPEECH, COMMENTS AND VIEWPOINTS OF LIBERALS, NEVERTHELESS THIS IS NOT McCarthy's 50S. YOU CANNOT ENDEAVOR TO ANNIHILATE THE SPEAKER'S RIGHT TO MAKE A LIVELIHOOD BY SUBSEQUENTLY PENALIZING THEIR "PROTECTED" SPEECH. FOR THIS RATIONALE, RIGHT-WINGERS ON-AIR PUBLICLY ENCOURAGING PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN PERSONAL (FINANCIALLY PUNITIVE) BOYCOTTS AGAINST LIBERALS DISSENTERS ARE LIABLE UNDER THE LAW. THEY WILL BE MANDATED TO FORFEIT ENORMOUS ORDINARY, ECONOMIC BUT ALSO PUNITIVE DAMAGES. ADDITIONALLY, EITHER UNDER THE DOCTRINE OF "RESPONDEAT SUPERIOR" AND/OR "THE JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY RULE" --- (OR OTHER RELEVANT DOCTRINE) THEIR EMPLOYERS OR CO-CONTRACTORS ARE MOST PROBABLY LIABLE.
THE FRENCH BOYCOTT IS A DIFFERENT MATTER. THEY STABBED COLIN POWELL IN THE BACK WHILE HE WAS PERFORMING OUR GOVERNMENT POLICY . INDEFENSIBLY, THE FRENCH BRIBED AFRICAN NATIONS TO UNJUSTLY OPPOSE USA DIPLOMACY.)
1. HELEN THOMAS ---- DEAN OF WHITE HOUSE PRESS CORPSE PUNISHED BY PRESS SECRETARY ARI "ARIAN" FLEISHER??? For asking what he considered embarrassing questions. Is this true, was she punitively relegated to the back of the White House briefing press room? Was the remainder of the Pres Corpse silent; while this alleged injustice was malefactored. 2. PHIL DONAHUE: As when Phil Donahue, (turns out with sufficiently high ratings), was unceremoniously fired by GE Executives because he was "too liberal." If these reports are true, then, we citizens, must organize to protect their Free Speech and Press rights. If their constitutionally guaranteed rights are not secure, t hen none of us possess true free speech; unless our words, ideas and questions are popular with the right wing. 3) THANK GOD PHIL DONAHUE IS BACK!!! At a time when some people are willing to give up their FREEDOMS (civil liberties) for some vague promise of unattainable SECURITY, Donahue is right, "Isn't it American to discuss and hear ALL sides of the issues. What's more American than that." DID MONOPOLY GE EXECUTIVES FIRE DONAHUE FOR BEING A LIBERAL??? More later.......... 4. DANNY GLOVER: Update: FOX reported GLOVER had been discharged by MCI. We are investigating. Now Danny Glover and MCI attempting to fire him for criticizing Pres. Bush. And praising the murderous dictator Castro. We do not agree with Glover Castro, however, he has the free speech right to say what he believes without being punished. ( An aside to Danny, I also recorded that horrible song of yours ''Wobbling On The Moon'' with the same deserved failure.) 5. SEAN PENN is no fool. He sued when he claims he was denied a movies deal. There is justice after all.6. BILL MAHER, JENNIFER (LANG??? Uncertain re surname??), THE DIXIE CHICKS ETC. Our only regret is: We should have spoken sooner when this White House's allegedly compelled employers of Comedian and social satirists BILL MAHER terminated from his popular cable program "POLITICALLY INCORRECT." have his career ruined by "Arian" Fleischer alleged stated angrily re Maher's comments, in effect, "People better watch what they are saying." (Otherwise Fleischer has been a good press secretary---now retiring---we wish his well.) We hope BILL Maher's statute of limitation has not tolled to commence legal tort action for INTERFERENCE and "WRONGFUL DISCHARGE." We the evil fascist serpent raises its head to punish those using Free Speech Rights --- it will continue to spew venom until its head is legally decapitated. Why? Because, for example. Now SCARBOROUGH UNFAIR has attacked actress JENNIFER (LANG??? or Lopez?? still not determined-confirmed) (we must recheck this last name) for stating she was embarrassed to be an American under the wrongful things done by President Bush. Moreover, SCARBOROUGH UNFAIR stated SEAN PENN was "kicked off" a movie set (we are not certain of these facts yet to be corroborated). However SCARBOROUGH UNFAIR'S May 19, 2001 inference May 19m 2001 was the careers of these celebrities should be injured by a personal and corporate boycott. The out-of-control "SU" started name-calling again---calling genius Sen. Bob Graham "DUMB" and a LIAR. 7. EARLY REPORT ABC DISCRIMINATION AGAINST JANEANE GARAFALO: We are investigating early reports ABC executives cancelled Garafalo's new TV series. Rumored it was related to her rightful Pro-Peace stance against the Iraq war. Seen as punishment and personal boycott (BLACKLISTING) do her exercising free speech rights. Specific yet to be determined. More to come.....and
SCARBOROUGH UNFAIR:
is leading a boycott campaign against GLOVER. His border neo-fascist reasoning is something like this " You have free speech in the US like GLOVER say anything he wants. But we have the right and so does MCI to personally boycott him by not hiring him not attending his movies. Incredibly vicious. "HANNITY INSANITY" does the same for any criticizing the president he worships. We are researching - investigating --- both cases. If true, the time has arrived for us "to be a man and woman; and take a stand" for our America. Just like the Honorable SEN ROBERT BYRD. Besides these right-wingers pretending to be conservatives have forgotten one thing: They are liable for civil litigation for the state tort of : the tortuous interference with business, contractual and professional relationships . A right we all possess by few or which few are knowledgeable. If these three cases go before a jury: These media and free speech persecutors may find themselves persecuted by jury awarded million in punitive damages.
"DANGEROUS DENNIS THE MENACE" MILLER:-
Former comedian now propagandist. UNFUNNY COMEDIAN DENNIS MILLER ON DONAHUE FEB. 12, 2003---His HBO neo-fascistic-like ranting and raving demonstrates he needs an exorcism. We previously believed his fascist-like jokes were just that ---we did not think the man was actually serious. We refer to him as "DANGEROUS DENNIS THE MENACE" who would sell Hitler - making him appear a man of humor and wit. Some conjecture "DANGEROUS DENNIS THE MEAN (now humorless and witless)" ; is a "plant-shill" to market the mega-corporate right-wing agenda? Not sure yet ---maybe "YES" --maybe "NO" One thing of which we possess certitude is: Any American who states we should cast aside the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights because it is 200 year old principles are inapplicable in modern times --- is a dangerous American. Entitled to his views but also our criticism. "Gee, Denny, Why don't we throw out The Bible. Hey Dude (or dud) The Bible's like over 2,000 years old and can't be no good today Man." ON DONAHUE FEB. 12, 2003: AND "DANGEROUS DENNIS THE MENACE" MILLER ON HBO: UNFUNNY EX-COMEDIAN DENNIS MILLER ON DONAHUE FEB. 12, 2003: Dennis ("sinned" spelled backwards) say it aint so. Sounded like Richard Nixon resurrected. Apparently, he place his finger into comedic-political wind discovering America has become conservative in voting but not in population. Time for Denny to make a philosophical career adjustment. So, now it is: "Let's hate the liberals, it's all their fault, I don't want to love my enemies, but to kill them. War is good, peace is evil, I trust politicians especially our likable president he wouldn't lie to us." And that mean ACLU is taking away my plastic Christmas crèches which I need for my plastic LA salvation. To hell with separation of church and state." ---or word to that effect. I wonder if Judas was a comedian? Next, "The Holocaust was a hoax!"
CBS BUCKLES UNDER TO RIGHT-WINGER CONSERVATIVES ''THE REAGANS''
Boycotting a corporation, a nation or a product is one thing. HOWEVER, boycotting people and their careers, doing them and their family financial injury is inexcusable evil. Of course, an individual has a right to boycott another individual citizen, everyone is not hired for the same job.. HOWEVER, organized boycotts by the THE RIGHT WING OR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY--- FOR INSTANCE -- IS ANTI AMERICAN EXAMPLE OF ''THE REAGANS'' WAS PRIOR RESTRAINT CENSORSHIP AT ITS WORST. It was removed by CBS without ever being viewed. Shameless, LIMP-WRISTED CBS. This is exactly what Hitler did to the Jews in the 30s. When the Nazis assume power after an alleged democratic election they laughing state everyone has the right to Free Speech, and we have a right after they are finished to either murder them, beat the up, or send them to a concentration camp. It is one thing for the FRENCH BOYCOTT based not on their UN peace stance; to the contrary the boycott is morally-based upon their interference with Colin Powell's diplomatic peace efforts on our country's behalf. That is inexcusable and the French deserve the punishment they currently are receiving and to be forgiven when the apologize. HOWEVER, radio and television right wing talk show host ---posing as conservative --- have promulgated personal boycotts against celebrities who opposed the Iraq War. Under the guise of "They had the right to freely speak and protect; now we have the right no to buy the movies or commit any of our money to their careers because we as modern day neo-fascist believe and accuse them of being "unAmerican, unpatriotic, treasonous traitor---especially when the criticize our beloved President." Well, they should have spoken with their lawyer first, because they are in deep civil liability trouble.
