While I love a good rant against the Rat Party as much as anyone, none of these things would have possible without the complicity of the pubbies. Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Hoover, the Rockefellers, Lott, Hastert, Frist, Bush I & II, etc., ad nauseum have all given us bigger government and increasingly oppressive taxation despite belonging to the "Party of Limited Goverment". You could say that some of these people were or are just RINOs. In reality the entire Republican Party is republican IN NAME ONLY.

"The concepts of divide and conquer as well as fomenting class envy are two of the common denominators.

This is spot on, especially in regards to the attack on the conservative foundations of the Republican Party, instigated by Carl Rove's "Big Tent". Never has the Republican Party been more divided between RINO's and conservatives, globalists, within the party, and those conservatives that hold to our constitution and sovereignty.

The Republican Party, under the Bush administration, is as guilty as the Democrats of flooding the nation with illegals who will eventually vote their marxism to feed their bellies and destroy the "european" influence, history, and government in the west. It is the Republican Party, in it's 180 leftward turn, that has rolled back two of the few conservative victories of the past decades with the ransacking of the Welfare Reform Act, and returning us to membership in UNESCO.

A third party is needed that will tap into the discontent of the silent majority, while they are still a majority, who refuses to vote for either party because they claim, with good reason, that they are identical.

Ever since I became interested in politics, I have been fascinated with why people politically lean the way that they do. People of above average intelligence can stand firmly on opposite sides of the aisle and be very passionate about their positions. After thinking about why this could be, I have finally reached some conclusions which I think help to explain political affiliation. Here are my observations:

Liberals are “idealists”, and Conservatives are “realists”.

With the help of the comments made by some liberals I have known over the years, I came to the conclusion that they would like to live in the ideal world, and many with behave as if our world is ‘ideal’. Here are two examples of phrases uttered by actual liberals.
1. “The US doesn’t need a military.” A liberal I know said this before the first Gulf war. In her lifetime, she, at that point, had never experienced out country at war. She was too young to remember Viet Nam. Now, Conservatives realize that the world is not perfect and that there will always be kooks out there ready to take away our freedom, not to mention our lives. Liberals, and rightly so, think that a military isn’t needed in a perfect world. They believe that by acting as if the world is perfect, the world will become perfect. This leads me to my second example.
2. While driving through the bowels of Philadelphia, my liberal friend said, “You know, I used to drive down here and leave the doors unlocked…. I didn’t want to believe that things were as bad as they are”. She had thought that by ignoring the problem, and pretending it didn’t exist, things would improve. Conservatives realize that the world is not perfect and we have learned to adapt. If you think about it, this above thought process could be applied to the gun issue. If there are no bad guys, why would we need hand guns?

Liberals live for the moment and don’t think about cause and effect. They believe very much that the ends justify the means.

This statement can be proven when looking at the abortion crowd and “ELF”. I had a very hard time trying to understand some people were not bothered by abortions. The mantra is, “it’s the woman’s right to choose”, “it’s her body”, etc, which I partly understand. Yet, we cannot do as we please with our bodies. We cannot assault other people, put illegal drugs in it, or even throw ourselves off a cliff without breaking the law. A young, unwed mother-to-be who doesn’t want to be a mother can get an abortion for whatever reasons she wants to attribute to the decision. It’s an immediate solution. Her ‘problem’ is fixed quickly and she is then allowed to go off to the mall with her friends, or whatever. Liberals think, “this woman doesn’t want to be pregnant, so she shouldn’t have to be”. I and many other conservatives look at the bigger picture. It’s true that young, single pregnant women receive many disapproving glances, but what about adoption? Liberals rarely think about adoption because they live for the moment. Instead of giving a life, they cause a death. If she were to undergo the glances during her pregnancy and give the child up for adoption, she then becomes a hero. She is a hero to the loving couple who most likely have been waiting years to adopt a child, and she is a hero to the child. If you were this woman a year later, would you feel better having the abortion or giving up your child? By what I have read, I would have to say that adoption is the better choice. I think this is very easy to see. Then, why can’t liberals see it? My only answer to this is they chose to only look at the moment, and not other results of their actions. This brings me to “ELF.”

“Earth Liberation Front” has recently drawn attention to themselves by defacing SUVs and burning down buildings. Their complaint being SUVs are evil and cause too much pollution. Their answer to this is committing crimes which appear to stem from their juvenile behavior. How much pollution did that burning building create? Do they care? Do they think that people will now be less likely to buy SUVs? It’s difficult to determine what motivates these people other than a deep hate for anyone adapting and surviving in this imperfect world (Conservatives). “ELF” could be more effective by treating their cause as a ‘business’, rather than resorting to gorilla warfare. For instance, the people of ELF could raise awareness for alternate fuel for cars (i.e. www.greasecar.com). They could convert their cars to burning used vegetable oil and try to convince others to do the same (I know someone who has two of these cars. They really work well). If all like-minded liberals drove these converted cars, think of all the gas they could save! They could take it a step farther and strain the oil themselves and sell it, using the proceeds to advertise and further their cause. Why don’t they do this? There is usually one of two reasons why people don’t do something. The first, they don’t have the skills or knowledge, or two, they don’t have the desire (i.e. lazy, or they doubt the result). Is the stereotype, “Liberals usually can’t run businesses”, true?

Liberals find themselves in quite a bind. The world isn’t perfect, and try as they might, they can’t make it so. Conservatives are aware the world isn’t perfect and make adjustments accordingly. This is the reason why many liberals always seem to be in a bad mood. I experienced this first hand. My husband’s software company was getting together ‘non-profit’ call lists. I was given the task of getting the IT contact for the sales people to call. I had a large list of these non-profits. One on the lists was PETA. When I called them, they were not very enthusiastic, but they weren’t impolite. When the salesman finally got around to calling them, they were terribly rude. NO OTHER non-profit, from that whole list, was rude. Is this a coincidence? I don’t think it is since every time I see a member of PETA on the news, they are doing something illegal or violent.

What does everyone else think??
