So just what are Conservatives so busy conserving? Have you ever thought about it?
The name Conservative, to me at least, implies 'calm, steady, reserved, wise'. Someone who takes careful and deliberate actions.
However, the policies that today's American Neo-Con groups push for are always "white domination over color, wealth domination over poverty, male domination over female, and American domination over the rest of the world".
So I ask you, what are they conserving?
My answer -- the Roman Christian Empire.
If the Roman Empire really fell, they want it to back.
Frankly, after I graduated from UCSD in '92 with a BA in US History, I felt like I'd discovered a truth: that the Roman Empire never fell, it just 'went underground' rebranded as Christianity, and that the Roman Christian Empire is still growing today, expanding & conquering.
Some may say this is more paranoid ravings from a whacko conspiracy-theory obsessed Jew, but let me ask this simple question:
Why do successful American men shave their faces in society?
Where does the American obsession with youth, the obsession with newness, and the need to express virility by penetrating or dominating any nearby unlucky entity come from?
Let's talk about Neo-Con FEAR Tactics
Fear is important to be discussing right now b/c the Right Wing Neo-Con govt shows their expertise at manipulating the people thru fear. It's amazing how effective it is.
I love in Michael Moore's 'Fahrenheit 9/11' there's a scene that shows how afraid a nowhere town in the boonies was of getting hit by terrorists. It was impressive.
Anyway, so my point is: I think everyone should read '1984' by George Orwell.
There are pieces of the modern day puzzle that are so clear after I re-read that book a few months back. It's all outlined there: double think, propagandism, crazy slogans like 'war is peace', and then Goldsten (cough! Osama Bin Laden!) as the former ally-turned-traitor that can never be caught but allows all of fundamental human rights to get tossed out the window over security concerns.
I'm somewhat concerned that it looks like the Fascist Neo-Con Think Tanks read the book and are using it as their game plan.
I re-posted and modified this from a comment I posted on Noreen's Blog Commentary on FEARISTS.
Stephen Colbert Roasts Bush
Did everyone see the Steven Colbert 'Roast' of Pres Bush? CLASSIC!!!
Right & Left alike will surely get a chuckle. You gotta admire the cojones of this guy!!
All the direct links I had are gone, except Democracy Now's re-broadcast in RealAudio.
Why do I continue criticizing the USA? B/c I'm a citizen of the USA. I believe it is patriotic to be outspoken in criticizing my country when it makes huge mistakes. Maybe other people have different ideas of what constitutes patriotism?
I admire Michael Moore, John Stewart, Amy Goodman, and now Steven Colbert. I think they have guts and are very brave people. I think they are truly American patriots.
I am not saying they don't 'spin' things as well, b/c everyone does (I learned that BIAS is a constant in studying US History @ UCSD).
I do like when the facts make it thru the bias.
Will we ever know the 9/11 truth? (ny911truth.org)
Could be mere conspiracy stuff, but these protestors impressed me when I was in NYC. I snapped these pics in March 06.

Was the WTC
collapsed?
Why are the stories about
the 9/11 terrorists so bizarre?
Different Bin Ladens?
What's OPERATION
NORTHWOODS?
Protestors at the WTC
I think there's too much weirdness around the whole 9/11 affair, like G.Bush sitting for 7 min's while the USA's getting attacked, flying the Bin Laden's home while all planes were grounded, immediately saying that now the USA has to go after Iraq, or the lack of evidence of the plane hitting the Pentagon.
I mean, I don't trust Bush at all. Why should I?
A highschool acquaintance said, "Do you REALLY think G.Bush was complicit in the attacks?"
My response: While Bush is clearly incompetent and hijacked 2 US elections to achieve the office of the Presidency, I have no direct evidence that he was complicit -- however, I think he KNEW they were going to happen and he was on vacation. Or perhaps he deliberately allowed it to happen, since he knew he would have far more influence as a 'war president'. A guy who clearly breaks the laws often (Florida election, AWOL, no-bid contracts to Haliburton, etc) seems more likely to do it more often -- especially if he gets away with it so often.
What G.Bush is for me (and much of the USA) is a humiliation, a sign of the collapse of the USA, and a strike against freedom and truth across the Earth. And those are his aspects w/o considering any conspiracy theories.
