I appreciate the correction. Since that’s all you’ve got, I take it you can’t refute my argument. Have a nice day.

Walter,
Although I appreciate your enthusiasm and attacks on the left, I can’t get behind everything as you still espouse the right as the savior of all mankind. Come on man, there is basically no difference between the Dems and Repubs. You know that as well as any right thinking American. They are both cut from the same cloth. Sure we change partys every eight years or so, but if you notice, I am sure you do, nothing changes, the game plan marches on, dragging our once great Republic into the abyss of Socialism and an ever expanding government. We have to break this cycle and vote every single one of those clowns out of office. What next great “Reichstag” are they gonna foist on us next before the Sheeple wake up and realize they are all liars and crooks, hell bent on pushing their own agenda at the expense of the “little people” as they like to call us. But then again Winston, maybe 2+2 does equal 5.

I don’t conflate Right and Left with the Republicans and Democrats. When I talk about the Left, I’m referring to all tyranny – fascism, communism, socialism – it’s all a variation on the same theme. That said, while I understand where the sentiment comes from, I do not agree that there is no difference between the parties. Were that true, there would be no contest between them, and we would see consistent policy prescriptions. Surely, the Republicans are not libertarian enough. However, you don’t change that without becoming a Republican. That’s how it works. Voting the bums out requires an alternative. The only alternative is a viable third party or bringing your values to the established caucus. There is no viable third party, and many reasons to believe one cannot develop. Conversely, there are many people with the right values who do not currently participate in party politics. So the answer would seem to be getting those people involved. You can’t expect a party to come to you. You have to change it from within.

I just had the pleasure of reading you for the first time, “Tea Party Taboo: The Atheism of Ayn Rand”. Since it reflects some of my own insights on Ayn Rands writings I mush say it is a very good article.
Comment by Steve— November 6, 2011 #
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Rand’s work will be frequently referenced in the future.

So I was searching the slums of the Internet, intent on finding a laughable toilet forum full of “conservatism” and thankfully enough I found this website… and particularly this author. It’s just so incredibly hilarious to me that some people take the teabaggers seriously, most likely just the tea drones themselves, but I digress. Only in America can an IT major talk politics like he actually knows what he’s talking about. I feel bad for you, and I feel bad for any feeble minded nut that follows you and your party. In fact, I feel sorry for your own feeble mind. You might answer with something smooth like, “well its a good thing you can’t refute my argument, all you do is insult me.” Believe me, there is no reasoning with you people, and I’d like to say its laughable, but it’s not. Conservatism works? Ha. Yes just like the south is the most advanced region in the country, in every sense of the word (advanced). Get a job, and read a book.

You can’t refute my arguments, and that is why you insult me. Anticipating that response makes it no less true. Thank you for demonstrating the antagonism and hatred of the Left.

The irony in “there is no reasoning with you people” when your entire comment is nothing but vitriol is amusing.
Plug your ears, cover your eyes, and shout out insults and obscenities in between “I’m not listening lalalalala”; an e-liberal in a nutshell.

In “David’s” world only college professors or union thugs can “talk politics”

I’m delighted to “find” you at a time when thinkers with ability to articulate ideas are so needed. Your view of political parties and the current fragmentation of our society is one which I understand and with which I agree. You have the ability to explain the differences in the meaning of words which the media uses to extort responses of feelings not reason. Ravi Zacharias has stated ” This generation hears with its eyes and thinks with its feelings.” How true! Only those who have lived in pre-TV times and before computers and cellphones grasp the need for and the value of words. The ongoing efforts of “progressives” to level everyone to “equality” has not been recognized as evil. If you are not acquainted with the author of “framing” and teacher of “cognitive science”, George Lakoff, I urge you to obtain copies of his works. He is a major source of the program of “community organization” which, with the finances poured in from Soros based organizations, spread throughout this nation like an insidious infection after 2004. It was the network that was able to elect Obama in 2008 and 2012. Evidently, there are many Americans of various colors and ethnicity who are ignorant of this network in its true “garments”. How we need voices like yours to educate those who are so unaware of the growing power of the “progressives” who are demanding “social justice” and rights not guaranteed by the constitution. I recognize the evil at work to destroy our nation.
