Ghosts of Conservatism - a Satire

I am more convinced now than ever, there really is no such thing as a Conservative: it is like describing the shape of an Amoeba one can never be wrong unless one says the shape is true.  The Conservative is that way- it can be anything but true.  It cannot be true to voters nor to the speaker of the phrase "I am a conservative".

History of conservatism in the US can be summarized very briefly because it is nearly empty. In the Revolution these were the men who wanted to belong to the King and then wanted to be the king. Our Founders were firebrands of their day- they risked hanging to declare their love of money in America -so i give them credit for conviction- they loved money and ALLLL the freedom it could buy.  In a broader perspective the Founders were complete phonies- in the model of say 4th Century Athens, where philosophers spoke of freedom on and on till weak and redfaced; then turned TO A SLAVE- for a goblet of wine. So these Athenian disciples of freedom had a limited view.  The Founders in America were similar. They wanted everyone to fight and die for their right to own and be rich and lead the rabble, namely- The people who actually fought, some of whom suffered awful deaths- were not worthy of voting or any say in government- only the Founders and their 'kind" were so endowed - by God- of course.  They too turned to their SLAVES for refreshment and sex and cute little brown children who would also be slaves- what the hell  is it about White Men and Freedom and Slavery- at least in Asia and Africa they said 'we are slave owning, murderous bastards who have no souls - here they pretend to be-- well Thomas Jefferson--anyway-- Conservatives are like that.  They get elected and tell voters they are Conservatives-- well there is that little thing-- the Constitution and the duties it imposes upon the elected-- to use their best judgment UNDIVIDED TRUTH AND LOYALTY and BEST efforts to benefit the people who elected them-- nothing in there about being an Amoeba-- you are supposed to be a Senator-- obligated to the people-- so  what is the Conservative crap-- are the people fed by it, housed, and educated by it-- are they made safer by it-- OR ARE YOU JUST AN  AMOEBA  BEING TRUE TO NOTHING
I look at the latest Crop of Republicans who go on these sabotage missions to ruin the economy, who exalt debt- which they largely have made in Iraq to feed their greedy billionaires-  and tell America it has no future.

 Note:  if debt were really the concern, a sincere concern for future Americans- we still must judge Republicans/Conservatives by how you treat present day Americans- those you wish to put nearer starvation on social security, those you refuse to give jobs to  today-- we cannot believe you would treat future Americans any better, that this is just a leverage point to disguise an assault on those you view a rabble- unworthy of a voice in their futures, those who want the jobs you block and refuse to create.  Just a note in case you missed it earlier - i even changed fonts to make it stand out !!  ;)

Yes they actually try to convince us we cant build bridges or reinvent the railroads, or run cars on electric power-- or create new industries.  They DAMN sure say we cant have say a million public service jobs to give young people a decent start in life.  THEY say we can't have a rising standard of living unless the millionaires FEEL LIKE INVESTING as opposed to collecting bets in the DERIVATIVES MARKET-- well that is a Conservative- a great ball of failure and bad karma-- when what we need - is the American way- we spend to raise our standard of living, invest in US- us- we the people- rails, roads, bridges, solar energy on every roof, make-work jobs for those with no skills, skill training for those who want- and millions want it.  New industries: we need to grow healthy food, and people need to know how to do it- we can do jobs for that; we need to improve our water conservation before we run out- jobs for that.  We need to fix bridges that are falling down  - i drive on some everyday.  We need to better educate our kids- more teachers, more online teaching, more tutors and help for those who need it-- jobs to do that-- see i can come up with a million jobs quite easily.  Elected people could too if they weren't a bunch of FRIGGIN AMOEBA--- and really I apologize to the Amoebas out there  i don't mean to put you in the same class as these Republicans  -- you are brainless but innocent of  efforts to destroy progress.

So this is satire except for the parts about Conservatives and their phony ideals, and attempts to ruin the economy, and divided loyalties-- the rest is clearly satire...;)
