  • "Has American Conservatism Become a Religion?"

    Yes. Next question.

  • One important thing you forgot is the "Invisible Hand" of the free market, wich for some (mostly hardcore libertarian) is some kind of godfigure that must not be offended in any way by regulations.

  • progressives ,i know that you are mosltly good ppl who belive in american democracy ,the constitution and the rule of law .

    please spend a few hours reviewing the ongoing HOC's hearrings on the obama DOJ's "fast and furiouis "debacle ..with perhaps as many as three hundred dead mexicans to date ,i think you will agree that "slaughtergate" makes the most egregious of nixon's errors seem quite almost quaintly innocent by comparison ..pls see for yourself and then explain if you can ..

  • David PLEASE google 'The Authoritarians' for 4 DECADES of scientific research into the current conservative mind (the research was used by John Dean for his book 'Conservatives Without Conscience') - it explains SO much. And YES liberals are no way near as bigoted as right wingers and yes conservatives blindly follow their leaders - often aggressively so and are VERY VERY bigoted...

  • @cuddlyumpkins Yes Hitler WAS a conservative. Tell me how many of these traits are conservative and how many liberal?

    '14 signs of fascism-The USA turning into a fascist country?' on youtube. Its SO typical if reality is against right wingers/conservatives - simply deny reality... You lot need to read lots and lots of science to cure your mental illness...

  • Hello. The founding fathers were CLASSICAL LIBERALS. The new left found that they could hijack definitions of words. Just keep saying it and sooner or later most people will accept it as fact. Was Hitler a conservative? Really. Seriously EXAMINE the policies of the ( national socialists party) = NAZI. Hitler was left wing as was Mussolini as was Woodrow wilson and F.D.R. Examine the POLICIES.

  • Hello. Really? Don't you read history? The very nature of your proggressive party is the creation of the state as GOD/nurturer.

  • @woodenmajor No, yes, no, dunno, they have a plan, dreams are for suckers, not an actual question, and not an actual question,,,

  • Republicans and Conservatives would have a field day with the news of the particles traveling faster than light, if they only understood science...

  • Religious pandering has become strategic in Republican political positioning. A likened majority has become top priority regardless of the science involved. Scientific facts are skewed to promote a nonsensical inflamed majority influenced by pontification reminiscent of evangelical fundamentalist movement during the Reagan era. Evangelical reassertion is not on their to do list.

  • Tea Party and conservative ideology has absolutely become like a religion. These republicans live inside a bubble where logic and reason just don't penetrate, as it is with the strongly held religion. Bill Maher and Keith Olberman best emphasized this in Bill's show Real Time in a recent "New Rules" segment. Funny stuff.
