Discussing Conservatism is whining??
All I hear is whining. No solutions.
What are your solutions for the problems we face?
Eliminate the FDA? Legalize all drugs? That's what the Libertarians would do.
Shrink our military down to the size of a cub scout troop? That's what the Libertarians would do.
Pray tell.
Similarities doesn't make them "left wing" both left and right wing extremes end up in some form of totalitarianism. Fascism embraced social conservatism, religion and opposed egalitarianism. Marxism supported egalitariansim and infact forced it at it's extremes through authoritarian methods. Fascism regards the individual as subordinate to the state, Marxism regards the individual as part of the state. I don't think you can have the leftwing proposing both a Marxist and a Fascist doctrine nor is fascism supported by the leftwing.
I understand your need to try and argue the semantics of fascism and Marxism.. this isn't about definition but of liberty. You either stand for freedom or not. So which is it Coyote?
What an airhead post!
Huh?Everybody don a flag pin and wave the flag! We're for Liberty! Woo hoo! You're either fer us or agin us!

Says the poster who sucks Obama's left nut every other post.. This same poster demanded without any evidence (The filmmaker of the supposed Benghazi attacks- ie the one Obama blamed) to KILL this man as per his remarks in numerous threads.. You have ZERO credibility on anything. LOL

What it tells me is that there is no consent of the governed.Well, to be fair, half of eligible voters don't even show up....And that's not counting those who aren't even registered.
Don't know if I'd count them amongst the stupid.
So what does this tell us about representative governance?
If approx. 1/3 of the population is making a decision for the entire country, is it safe to say that representative government, and the democratic process, is a failure?
Think about that one.

If you don't vote, you are consenting to what everyone else decides for you.
fascism (politics) : Opposition to Marxism -- Encyclopedia Britannica
I never said they were one in the same.. they both breathe DICTATORSHIPS.
Despite the fascists violent opposition to Marxism, some observers have noted significant similarities between fascism and Soviet communism. Both were mass movements, both emerged in the years following World War I in circumstances of political turmoil and economic collapse, both sought to create totalitarian systems after they came to power (and often concealed their totalitarian ambitions beforehand), and both employed terror and violence without scruple when it was expedient to do so

Just because you don't like the solutions proposed doesn't mean there aren't any.Huh?Everybody don a flag pin and wave the flag! We're for Liberty! Woo hoo! You're either fer us or agin us!![]()
That's the depth of the crap I hear around here. A lot of whining and moaning and lying and hypocrisy. Never any actual solutions proposed.
Now we have a simpleton saying we should vote for "liberty". What a pile of pablum that is.
I don't think she has a clue what Libertarians are actually about. I guess we are supposed to vote for the propellerheads because of what they aren't. They aren't Democrats or Republicans. That seems to be the only criteria, which is as retarded as it gets.
Just once, I'd like to see one of these dimwits start a topic with some substance. Some actual proposed solutions.
Well, to be fair, half of eligible voters don't even show up....And that's not counting those who aren't even registered.Americans are too stupid to do anything but vote blue donkey or red elephant. ?
Don't know if I'd count them amongst the stupid.
I asked a simple question. If you saw in to the future that the next LEFTIST government will result in martial law and the end of this Republic as we know it, would you vote for the Liberty candidate? It's not difficult. It's a hypothetical.. but eerily represents where we're headed.
What an airhead post!

Please post evidence of this claim. Good luck with that.
I see you are unable to provide any solutions and only know how to whine and make empty statements.
Just because you don't like the solutions proposed doesn't mean there aren't any.Huh?![]()

Nobody can make you understand the the FDA drives the costs of medications and devices through the roof, keeps "orphan drugs" that could help people on the lab shelf, all while acting as a defacto protection racket for BigPharm...That's a conclusion you have to realize for yourself.
Nobody can force you to recognize that the evisceration of the 4th Amendment, asset forfeiture laws that put the burden on the suspect to prove innocence, gangs funded from the drug trade, innocent children caught in the crossfire of gang warfare, and the like are at least as bad, if not worse than, the damage the drugs could do themselves to the fabric of the nation....That's something that you have to come to recognize yourself.
Nobody can compel you to draw the conclusion that trying to polish turds just isn't working....That's up to you.

Make the argument. That's all I ask. I would much prefer this board be filled with people offering various solutions, and explaining why those solutions are the best way to go. Wouldn't you?
Even if I think you are smoking some of the drugs you want legalized, this would be a far superior forum for it.
Umpteen Zimmerman topics, a gazillion topics about Presidential hotel bills on foreign policy trips, topics about how many golf games Obama plays, and God knows how many topics by Constitution lovers which demonstrate they don't know the first thing about the Constitution or how government works.
So, please. Start topics explaining why the FDA should be eliminated and all drugs legalized.
Start topics explaining why our defense department should be shrunk down to the size of a cub scout troop.
Make the Libertarian case. Who knows, you might get some converts who actually understand to what it is they are signing on.
