Am we crazy or are Conservatives trying to make things worse for America?
"You’re Not Crazy, They Really Are Trying To Make Things Worse."
"If you've been thinking that nothing ever gets done in Congress and that many of our problems only get worse, it’s not your imagination.
"The truth is, many members of Congress have been dedicated to making sure that nothing gets done and our problems don’t get better - all for the purpose of winning the next election.
"Take High Gas Prices
"Here’s an example. Back when the Democrats had a majority in both houses of Congress, the Republicans blamed the Democrats for not doing anything to address high gas prices - which were around $3.85 a gallon. Democrats offered a bill to speed up oil production on 65 million acres of U.S. land that oil companies already have leases for, but are not drilling on. It would also open new leases for producing oil.
"Republicans filibustered the bill and prevented it from coming up for a vote.
"Political Sabotage as a Substitute for Governing."
- Democrats wrote a bill to stop price gouging and profiteering by oil speculators, which is currently one of the biggest factors in driving up oil prices. The Republicans filibustered the bill and never allowed a vote.
- Democrats offered legislation that would require oil companies to invest a little bit of their massive profits to develop clean alternative energy. Republicans filibustered it and never let it come up for a vote.
- Democrats drafted a bill to give tax incentives to the private sector which encourage innovation, research and production of alternative energies from solar, wind, geothermal and other sources as well as tax breaks for buying hybrid cars.
- The Republicans filibustered all these bills and refused to even offer their own ideas about how to address the issue of high energy prices. But they did accomplish one thing, they successfully blamed the Democrats for doing nothing about high gas prices.
We know that Conservatives believe that all the wealth in America should belong to them...
...and we also know that they'll say anything to get elected...
...but to stay in office, they HAVE to make us stupid.
But what could be so extreme with just another "political philosophy" like Conservatism?
Being a Conservative can be a money-maker, as long as you're willing to kill off all forms of life on the planet...
Their consiglieri in the Supreme Court is helping out, of course...
If you're a Conservative, sometimes you have to kill your fellow Americans...
Did we mention that the Cons lie a lot?
But here was the unkindest cut of them all...
...and someone had something to say about that too.
Yep, it's the "T" word...

So do you still think that Conservatism isn't a vast, criminal enterprise? Murder, theft, and treason are usually thought of as criminal acts, and just because you say that Conservatism is a bona fide "political philosophy" doesn't make it so.
Especially when everything you say and do smacks of criminality.
Isn't it way past time to criminalize Conservatism?
