The Conservative Sage

When you vote for the Democratic party as mindless as blacks have over the past four decades, you do more than vote to elect officials-you endorse its value system. The liberal value system is Marxist materialism, anti family and anti god at its core. The state is the end all, be all. I would ask that is it a co-incidence that since we switched to the that party we have declined socially and economically as a people? Do you think its a co-incidence that all the major cities that are social and economic basket cases happen to be Democratic strongholds? Can any of you name a large city or any other city like Youngstown, Gary, Baltimore or Camden that's controlled and populated by conservatives? Why do you think the Democrats are trying to get felons and convicts to vote? What's the attraction? The problem with many -especially Obama cool aid drinkers- is that they are so emotionally invested in voting for politicians in order to affect change. There is very little emphasis on v...

My favorite talk show host Dennis Prager has repeatedly expressed his perplexity at the hatred of George W. Bush by the left. This hatred- playfully known as Bush Derangement Syndrome or BDS- has become a downright epidemic on the left. Bush is blamed for everything from 911 to the Cubs not winning a World Series. After a long period of observing "leftist thought", I have outlined a few key points that I feel will help to explain this phenomenon. Let's begin by getting the easy ones out of the way. 1. Republican, Christian, Conservative : No three attributes invoke more hatred from the left because they trample on every single one of their deeply held positions primarily secularism, and socialism. After all, who is he to think that faith, family and liberty are superior to race and class? 2. The 2000 election : This was the first of many Bush misfortunes. He ended 8 years of liberal- palooza known as the Clinton years. The Clinton era gave a reprieve to the left after ...

One of the hundreds of things I despise about television news is the cliches that emerge from the world of political punditry. The worn out phrases "the last eight years", "Bush's failed economic policies" immediately come to mind. The latest one that disturbs me is "This is the worst economy since the great depression". I wonder why these types of statements are almost always uttered by democrats? I would like to partake in one of my favorite pastimes: poking holes in liberal none sense. During the great depression 25-30% of Americans were out of work, almost half of the nations 25,000 banks failed, thousands were standing in bread and soup lines and Wall Street investors were jumping out of windows! Then there was the 1970's and 80's when inflation reached double digits, rust best jobs were disappearing which caused unemployment rates between 7-11%.I take no comfort in the fact that these comments are spewed by so called "financial exper...

Suddenly the nondescript profession of "community organizer" has a PR problem. The offices of ACORN, the Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now, (essentially a bunch of government funded angry liberals with clip boards) were raided by federal authorities seeking evidence of voter fraud. Its alleged that these moral giants are accused of submitting false voter registration forms with duplicate names. News came today that the investigation has widened to offices in five other states including Ohio and Missouri. ACORN specializes in registering low income voters (i.e. Democrats). They require their employees to register 20 voters per day at the risk of not being paid-talk about voting for change. According to reports, ACORN canvassed soup kitchens and homeless shelters seeking voters. During previous elections, volunteers have loaded up their vehicles with the homeless and drove them to polling stations. This further confirms a deeply held belief of many years: It se...

Since the bailout bill was passed a week and a half ago, the stock market has dropped like a bowling ball off the Sears Tower. The Dow is now at 9,000! One year ago today, the Dow stood at over 14,000. We seem to be on the brink of a global financial meltdown with no end in sight. In the past week the British and Irish governments intervened to prop up their banking systems. The Icelandic government took over its 3rd largest bank, Glitnir to avoid a collapse. Now there is word that a ''Global Financial Summit" has is being discussed to deal with the crisis. Ordinarily I would be optimistic about America's ability to rebound from financial turmoil. After all, we have been through this before. There was the panic of 1907, the great depression from 1929 to the early 1940's, there was the Savings & Loan collapse of the mid 1980's, the stock market crash of 1987 and last but certainly not least the September 11Th terrorist attacks. Trading was halted after the ...
