The vast majority of Americans can't make a short list of their conservative principles. They are led to believe they are conservative simply by agreeing with hate radio and Fox news.
American conservatism has been bastardized by: the war machine Christian fundamentalists laissez-faire economics (neoliberalism)
Prudence is the essence of conservatism and derived from or synonymous with virtuous, sagacious or judicious, so there are philosophic aspects that transcend culture or creed. There is nothing virtuous about the Christian war machine plundering the earth of its natural resources.

If the Libs are FOR IT, it must not be what conservatives will accept. It must suck to have to wait until your enemies speak, in order to know what you really think.

Poppycock is dominated by so-called conservatives who hate half of America. Obamacare was written by the Heritage Foundation (a right-wing think tank) yet republicans reject it simply because it was signed into law by a mulatto. I actually made the effort to read Objectivism by Ayn Rand and it has nothing to do with conservative principles here in the real world. A barn raising is the epitome of collectivism which is the ultimate sin according to Rand and "conservative" think tanks.
I can remember when republicans were capable of open and honest conversation on topics such as this.

Please. Conservatives believe in Personal Freedom, Self reliance, limited government,free enterprise and defending America from those who would turn America into a socialist nanny state.

Personal freedoms for a select few. The rest of us are targeted for discrimination once we fail to live up to your standard of objectivism. You are more concerned about the treatment of animals than you are with the humans being terrorized by the oil police at Standing Rock. The U.S. military is the best funded socialist structure in the world, with the purest form of single-payer healthcare from a taxpayer financed veterans administration. In short GI's are on the dole and brainwashed to dehumanize nonwhite nations with the misfortune of being born where far right dictators are installed by the CIA to force western enterprise.

You forgot "making up stuff," political smear, hatred of people who disagree with the "one brain" (John McCain, George Bush and James Comey depending on how he rules) and "investigations" for political foes.

The truth comes with an enormous price-tag in America. Like I said, I can remember when there were open and honest debates in Cyberia. People couldn't just pull something out of their ass or parrot the propaganda spread by the news media. People were actually willing to read a magazine or a book to find out how bad we were being screwed by our government. Snowden showed us how bad things are and the majority of Americans think he is the enemy. Americans don't like hearing the truth.

Aww, sweet thing, I'm far into my cups tonight to put you into a state of reality. There are no humans being "terrorized by OIL police". As for the abusive abandonment of animals, that is just the next step up in liberal justification. The belief in the right to protest includes animal abuse? These people chose to go onto private land. The animals they drag there have no choice.
True Native Americans valued their animals. Don't even act like you can give a shit about "native lands' when it's not the ultimate aim. If that were the case, there wouldn't have been a HUGE mess of trash left behind on "native lands".
Showing disgusting liberal 60's mentality, You don't think our VETS deserve healthcare?
Dehumanize? JESUS! YOU act so stupid! You are crying about human rights and the bullshit of non-white nations abused by the military? Are US Troops BEHEADING PEOPLE? BURNING PEOPLE ALIVE? COOKING THEIR CHILDREN IN FRONT OF THEM? GANG RAPING WOMEN? You have some really fucked up values, and I'm not the best person to play "I'm a damaged liberal, and I have a butt hurt" with right now.
Take your liberal identity politics and shove it up there, hun. Are you American or not? It's that fucking simple.

The Iowa farmers are not too happy with their governor giving eminent domain rights to a pipeline company. March 15 is the debt ceiling on the $5 billion a day deficit spending. The entire market economy is a shell game with robo-trading on artificial earnings. Who the hell is buying bonds? Are there any conservatives left in America?

Who the hell is buying bonds? The world economy is a shell game with the U.S., Europe, and Japan using monopoly money to buy up negative-yielding government bonds. Obama managed to kick the crash down the road but without a federal jobs progam real soon, that sucker Trump won't be as lucky.

Even Henry Ford understood that capitalism is demand-side economics, so he paid a living wage so all of his employees could afford to buy a car. Why do all the so-called conservatives hate workers and want to see them living in the poverty caused by union busting and trickle-down?

for-profit prison/slave labor
I posted this in American conservatism to show how republicans love big government spending tax dollars on programs that make huge profits for a small private sector while continuing to grow our institutional witch hunts.
This is why so many people fled Europe for the American revolution. Neo-feudalism is not happy with minimum wage workers, so they make us into felons and force us to work for free.

They are criminals. They want to work for the money in their "bank" so they can have cigarettes, candy etc. They can have a small amount in their bank. Either their family or friends put the funds in there or they have to earn it. This is the system that has been in place forever.

Once again proving that republicans are big government spending liberals who favor living in a police state. That goes against everything our constitution is about and what makes America great. We are a land of immigrants who came here looking for a better life. You liberal republicans want to turn my grandparents into criminals.
Shame on you.
