So it seems to many. Please tell me when the last time the Republican party has been as conservative as it is today? The Tea Party and movement conservatives have pushed the Republican Party further to the right than it has been anytime in recent memory - and in just a few short years I might add. If we keep up this pressure the GOP might become a genuine, serious conservative party for the first time in its existence.
To be honest, the Republican Party hasn’t been conservative at all. Through the power of 20/20 hindsight, it is becoming pretty obvious now that the endgame is in sight that it has been the party of western European Socialism for at least 20 years and probaby much longer. If they’ve had a benevolent goal for all these years, it has been to ease us into a nanny-state socialism, with plenty of chances for corporate leaders to still make money off our labor, but with a comfortable but very well-planned existence for the rest of us who are destined to he human animals living on a farm. They will treat us well enough to make revolution unthinkable and we’ll be fed and cared for as long as we are productive. But farm animals is all we are to them.
They are much smarter than the Dems, who would herd us into communism with no plans other than “it will get better once everyone gets with the program”. Their way ends with such poverty and hopelessness that revolution becomes a strong possiblity, and that’s not good for the business of the crony capitalism, which is the only form of free enterprise the Dems champion.
So, considering the choice, I am happy that the Republicans are the smarter and kinder Marxists (and people farmers).
You make a good point. It’s something to think about for those of us whose hope is waning.
