DATE LINE USA- THIS JUST IN: AS OF MAY 20' date=' 2009, CONSERVATIVES HAVE STILL LOST THE 2008 ELECTION AND REMAIN IN THE MINORITY!

 

5 months into President Obama’s first term, conservative voters and members of the RNC and Congress, seem yet to have gotten the message that their party is no longer in power. Despite a sound thrashing at the polls, conservatives continue to behave in a fashion that many believe led to their exile from power in the first place. In spite of President Obama’s overtures to bipartisanship (even though he wasn’t elected to be bi-partisan, he was elected the do the job), all he has received for his efforts are continued obstruction and derision from the right.

 

While a recession, not of President Obama’s making, rages through the U.S and around the world, rather than assist President Obama with thoughtful and creative ideas that would help remedy the issues, the conservatives busy themselves with a resolution to re-brand the left as “The Democrat Socialist Party” as well as continue to focus on cultural wedge issues that do nothing to solve the grave problems facing the U.S. and the world. Most on the left and many moderate conservatives, agree that this tack will very likely prolong and deepen the conservative’s irrelevance in the foreseeable future.

 

As an interesting side note, conservative denizens of the web site of a popular American brand of guitar, have been shown to be an illuminating microcosm of what seems to be at the root of conservatism falling out of favor. After an in depth examination of their posts, it’s a given that they exhibit rigidity of thought, an unwillingness to compromise, a tendency to try to shout down any opposing ideas, a “my way or the highway” stance on just about everything, as well as, an apparent lack of concern for the well being of their fellow Americans or anyone else with whom their ideology may differ.

 

When a left leaning independent was asked for his take on the circus the web site had become, he was heard to mutter something along the lines of, “boring”, ”what has this to do with guitars” and “PLEASE , FOR GOD’S SAKE, SHUT UP ALREADY”.

 

Nothing is expected to change anytime soon.

My inference, excactly.

 

My Mom had a saying that applies.. all the time, "Whenever you are pointing the finger at someone, there are ALWAYS three fingers pointing back at yourself."

 

The politicos must have heard my mom. You never see any politician pointing an accusitory finger when at the podium. They always point an open hand (all fingers pointed away).

Pointing is rude...
