Despite the alleged separation of church and state, BELIEF in Sustainability is widely held in American secular government. Judeo-Christian moral guidelines have been incrementally supplanted by what can best be described as neo-pagan ones. Consequently, notice where rulers never utter a harsh word against Malthusian, Utilitarian, Green and Islamistophilic nutcases. There the ruled are at grave risk.

The Only Remaining Liberal Things...
about "Progressives" that I can see is their application of government to "solve" everything; their brazenness in lying about what they have done when caught; and their gall at projecting their own lies and misdeeds onto their critics.
Pasc, do you want to go back to blood letting? How about trying trickle down again, even though it's been proven completely invalid. Man needs to move forward. Cons love living in the past, but for mankind's sake, we need to progress.
From dictiony.com:
pro⋅gres⋅sive
–adjective 1. favoring or advocating progress, change, improvement, or reform, as opposed to wishing to maintain things as they are, esp. in political matters: a progressive mayor. 2. making progress toward better conditions; employing or advocating more enlightened or liberal ideas, new or experimental methods, etc.: a progressive community. 3. characterized by such progress, or by continuous improvement. 4. (initial capital letter) of or pertaining to any of the Progressive parties in politics. 5. going forward or onward; passing successively from one member of a series to the next; proceeding step by step.
Because of your definition of progress, I am correct to place the label "Progressive" in sneer quotes BECAUSE those who have laid claim to the title.
"Progressives" seek the reverse of progress as it relates to individual liberty. That attitude has proven to achieve the reverse of progress in everything not related to tyranny.
Reaper, I know you have roamed my site for quite some time now. Your 7:22AM comment acts as if I accept the label of "conservative" which I do not (with a few exceptions at moments of weakness).

Cons seek to increase individual liberty? But, isn't it true that cons love their liberty, almost as much as they love their prisons?

ReplyDeleteYou need to read Resolved: Conservatives Are Useless As Defenders of Liberty and then maybe you could better aim your statements and questions.
Or do you wish to reaffirm that Og's assessment of you is correct?
