I ask all the self-identifying Conservatives I come in contact with (including those in my family)to define Conservatism. They hem and haw, and curse Liberalism (which they also can't define), never giving a straight answer. <br /><br />For some strange reason, it's fine to give handouts to the wealthy, but never give a penny to the paupers; they're just not deserving of it. <br /><br />Good post, my friend!Brother Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603553502416272941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-29804640379668445362009-11-22T13:44:32.106-05:002009-11-22T13:44:32.106-05:00Jim,

but let me take it one step ...what a terrific post<br /><br />but let me take it one step further - the cult of corporatpcracy is really about the leaders and boards of these corporations that want the power and wealth<br /><br />and they do their bidding with funding of the elections<br /><br />until we have publicly funded limited campaigns this will NEVER change.<br /><br />what is scary is that 80% of the country doesnt even see this - because these corporatists hide behind the words "free market" just like the religious fanatics abuse the word "god"<br /><br />this country stopped being free market and a democracy a long time ago.<br /><br />even eisenhower warned about the MIC. i used to think the only reason we stay in afghanistan is becuase we just dont want to lose (since there is NO definition of winning<br /><br />i will add a secon reason - it is profitable for the corporations.Distributorcaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149154929149577121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-64287184909824999312009-11-20T02:16:28.690-05:002009-11-20T02:16:28.690-05:00Great description of the Cult and their ridiculous...Great description of the Cult and their ridiculous hold on millions of gullible Americans. I blame our education system for a large part of this problem. It's bad enough that a few billionaires have so much control over the messages being beamed out to the public 24/7. But if people still learned critical thinking (or something similar) in school, they'd be less gullible.<br /><br />There are millions of Americans who are educated (technically) and have the logic and critical thinking skills of an 8-year-old. They're the ones who are putty in the Cult's hands.Tom Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-53703504467224081292009-11-19T14:47:14.321-05:002009-11-19T14:47:14.321-05:00The real struggle, of course, is not between liber...<i>The real struggle, of course, is not between liberals and conservatives.

I was just listening to Frigging Palin espousing her "great" conservative values. <br /><br /> They were interviewing people who were rabid waiting for her to show up. They did not know whaat she stood for they only cared that she was just like them. WTF? <br /><br /> She thought if she ran Beck might be a good VP because he too has great conservative values.

I thought I was, but the collective consciousness often creates simultaneously in different places.<br /><br />I learned of a band called Beckerheads and fans of Steely Dan’s Walter Becker claim the word as well.<br /><br />Foxsuckers is just too tempting a term to not be picked up spontaneously throughout the sentient half of humanity.<br /><br />Kulkuri,<br />Unfortunately cult indoctrination cannot be reversed without the trauma of de-programming.

What pisses me off is the 'Cult...Good post. What pisses me off is the 'Cult' calling the media liberal when it is corporate media through and through. The MSM uses the 'Cult' terminology and spouts the 'Cult' talking points in the form of questions.<br /><br />What's really disgusting is that the 'Cult' has the very people (the working poor)that healthcare reform would help working to defeat it. At this time the truly poor have Medicaid (at least a good part of them if they can jump thru all the hoops) and the Middle Class has insurance. And of course the rich don't worry as they either have the best insurance available or can afford to pay without insurance. The ones with no insurance are the working poor who make too much to be on Medicaid and not enough to buy insurance even if it is offered thru their workplace. Those are the ones that will suffer if things remain as they are now, and while not mentioning it they are the ones the "Obstructionists" don't want to have insurance.<br /><br />If those that are being used ever figure out how badly they have been screwed and how they have been played, it'll be pitchforks and torches time and that has some of the 'Cult' scared shitless in their gated communities. (That last may just be wishful thinking on my part, as I don't think they stop to think about anyone other than themselves!!)Kulkurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09198195648066700925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-134372208798387606.post-15660297841045464882009-11-19T01:38:36.122-05:002009-11-19T01:38:36.122-05:00Dave, I forgot to stop by earlier and tell you.

Maybe they are finally correct, but not in their original intention.

In the 60s there wasn't a corporate entity bigger than General Motors, but where is it now? Destroyed by its own greed, mismanagement, and blinkered approach to business. GM has been replaced by the oil giants, people still buy cars, but they are Toyotas, Hondas, and Nissans, so we still need gas, with Chrysler and Ford barely hanging on. The US automobile empire has been fragmented. It would not have seemed possible 40 years ago. With Honda, Nissan, Kia, Volkswagen, and Toyota all producing cars in the US, the American corporate car giants as we knew them are gone<br /><br />The oil business and energy giants can be dismantled in the same way, by alternative sources of energy being allowed to thrive. Wind, solar, and wave power can chip away, on a world wide basis, at the bread and butter of their business. 2 dozen energy companies in a state is better than 1 or 2. Compete them to death.<br /><br />The media powerhouses are a threat to us like they never were. This 24 hour switched on, all the time society has made them tyrannical in their approach to news. They pick their party or candidate and run him down our throats. Rupert Murdoch can try and own a major newspaper, TV station, radio station and publishing house in every major market in the world (which he almost does) but in the end he will fall, he is showing signs of panic now by threatening to charge for all his web sites and block Google from picking up his news feeds. Eventually he will fail. Smaller, more diverse media will replace them. The 10,000 channel cable box is not far away.<br /><br />The Banking system is a bigger problem, so many big banks have failed and even more community banks have gone under, so we are left with less banks competing for the same business. How those behemoths can be taken apart is beyond me.<br /><br />What I would like to see happen in our society probably won't happen in my lifetime, but what has happened in my lifetime gives me cause for hope. The teabaggers, birther and their Fox News puppet masters, seem so stupid, it's almost comical and Jon Stewart and his ilk, make a good living making fun of them. But for the nuts to become even more marginalized is for the rest of us to become more sophisticated and enlightened. A big reason the Russian revolution failed is, in 1917 Russia was 4/5ths peasant, they didn't have enough educated, sophisticated, smart people to make their dream come true, after Lenin died, enter the tyrants.Holte Enderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10356437917387847542noreply@blogger.com
