Parties love titles like Liberal and Conservative, that’s why they promote them. As times, events and political goals change you can change the meaning of being a conservative or liberal and voters keep identifying with it out of habit. That is why neither party refers to themselves or followers as Constitutional Patriots, that hasn’t changed in 227 years and neither party can claim the title.
Can anyone explain what conservatives are trying to conserve when everything they promised to protect back in the 60’s is already lost or damaged and too often with the help of the Republicans they have been giving unreturned loyalty to?
I was raised as a proud conservative and back then I was always under the impression we were trying to conserve our founding principles and Constitution. Today they are merely a frustrated faction of a GOP that doesn’t even want them and their whole focus is trying to retake the GOP instead of preserving, protecting and restoring America.
They keep telling me the plan is to take back the GOP then use the GOP to save America. Reagan first proposed that logic back in 1976. Forty long years later conservatism as a political ideology has racked up the longest losing streak of any major political faction in the history of American politics. They never win on anything and day by day the party they have long supported drifts farther away from their grasp. Why try to save a bad party when our Founders gave so many warnings about parties going bad and the need to keep replacing them? How can conservatives claim to honor our Founders and Constitution then ignore our Founders and support a party that trashes our Constitution?
In the long record of parties in world history there has never been a single case of a party turning bad or useless then being restored to rise and save a nation. It has never happened once and it is not happening here. It will not happen and there is not a shred of evidence to indicate there is the slightest glimmer of hope.
Americans are realizing it too and the resurgent strength of genuine patriotism I see today is proof that Americans are ready to tackle our problems themselves. They are rejecting the candidate choices promoted and advanced as party favorites. American voters are starting to take care of business and you can just feel the power behind it. The tragedy is that much of the sensation is building behind an avowed socialist tempting our youth; this has got to be stopped. Why are the young of America so easily indoctrinated? Largely because conservatism lost our entire education system from pre-school to universities to liberal activists. From the smallest school boards to the halls of our greatest universities conservatives have lost influence step by step until they are now completely irrelevant in our system.
Using the excuse that conservatism is our only hope is not patriotism, it is surrender. Conservatism had it’s day and that day came and went. I truly believe conservatives mean well but they are also severely misled by GOP falsehoods and the mega-star national radio hosts who spew it. What those microphones preach is not patriotism, it is using patriotism to indoctrinate fans to party loyalty despite the long history of obvious failures and backstabbing. These people mock the awful liberal media for the party spin and obfuscations while they do precisely the same for the benefit of the GOP, not America.
When you hear conservatives tell us to stay the course for just a few more elections they are really asking you to ignore the past 30 years and just leave things as they are so our kids and grandkids can deal with it. We do not accept this. This mess developed on our watch, it is our duty to fix it and that is just what I am seeing citizens lining up to do. It fills me with pride to see so many millions telling the establishment parties to shut up and get out of our way. The GOP is running a scam pretending their right wing establishment is something different from their RINO side but the truth is electing any GOP official strengthens the whole team which is run by the bad guys, sellouts and backstabbers. Putting one or two good people in there is like trying to put a couple of new bricks in a crumbling wall. It will still keep caving in.
Patriotism and standing behind principles is what created America and in these troubling times I see Americans returning to patriotism and principles for solutions. Our first principle was defiance and refusing to submit. Look around folks, isn’t that what voters are starting to rally on once again? Americans just got pushed too far and Americans are not people that put up with it. They warn, they grumble, they get frustrated and then they get fed up. No wise person would push Americans to that point but our parties and leaders did. They mistook our kindness and patience for weakness and that was a stupid mistake. They are starting to realize it too but they don’t realize how serious we are.
It is insulting to Americans to have leaders and pundits telling us we must be Democrat, Republican, liberal or conservative. None of them created a country; none of them are mentioned in Our Constitution. They just came along later and fouled everything up. We had it ALL, wealth, jobs, futures and national security. Liberals and conservatives ruined all of it by looting us for cronies and now they say we must stay with them? They are relics of a failed past. It is time to clean house and America is rising up to do it. The entire reason our Founders gave us a Constitution is so that the People own and control government and they serve us with consent of the governed. Well, we are withdrawing our consent, you blew it and there is no going back for us. You should have listened when we tried to tell you.
Liberals and conservatives are now getting desperate as they see their false heroes slipping in the polls. They are angry that we have decided to promote and support our own candidates rejecting the frauds they push on us. American voters are reacting as they always have when pushed, they are returning to the roots of being Constitutional Patriots. They are saying WE will back whoever WE decide and everyone else can lead, follow or get out of our way! This is our nation, our futures, our family’s futures and we have seen enough of the failures liberals and conservatives want us to stay with. Repeating failure only leads to more failure and failure is NOT an American trait. We just don’t take it.
