How could we call ourselves conservatives and do less?

We won't.

The label "conservative" is hereby outlawed. It has been rendered moot and useless by the derps.

The preferred term is "Patriot", and can be applied across party, racial, gender, age, or any line.

One is either a patriot, and all that entails, or one is not.

There is no in-between.

As Q said, it’s just Good and Evil. All the other labels are really meaningless at this point. Patriot is okay, too, fits under “Good”. I gave up on the label “conservative” many years ago, and “left” and “right” are total garbage words that really mean nothing, everyone has different ideas. Example - National Socialism is somehow “right”. Stupit.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Absolutely, positively, 188% agree.

Neocons, never-Trumpers, scumbags like Flake and the Cheap Labor Express all call themselves conservatives. Even Rush pointed out that the term has been usurped and ruined. He also pointed out that weak/inept Republican politicians (prior to Trump) have surrendered the once noble word as a brand, allowing the RATs to attach Fascist, Sexist, Racist etc. without fighting back. I believe he mentioned GWB, McCain and Romney as examples of this surrender.

However, I don't recall Rush making a memorable suggestion for the word's replacement.

I'll go with Patriot. Thanks, Oracle.
