(This bit of myth making can be traced back to Richard Nixon’s silent majority.) The numbers actually tell the story of a country that over the two decades has been moving left. However, one specific shift that is blowing the notion of America being a conservative country to smithereens. <br /><br />The Republican Party’s move to the far right has resulted in moderates moving more in line with the Democratic Party. Conservatives are fond of using Gallup’s ideology poll to justify their America is a conservative country rhetoric, but the 2012 poll showed conservatives outnumbering moderates and liberals 40%-35%-21%. The problem for Republicans is that Obama carried moderates, 56%-41%. The majority of moderates are currently moving away from the Republican Party.<br /><br />http://www.politicususa.com/america-conservative-nation-democrats-outnumbered-republicans-4-5-presidential-elections.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-60947401736953505032013-01-08T14:35:58.987-09:002013-01-08T14:35:58.987-09:00"...Probably communist Nazis!" ????

They are white Christians who are trying to eliminate any trace of "foreignness" in American culture--especially if it is black or Latino. They can't expand the borders of the US, but they can expand its influence through war. They fantasize over building a wall on the Mexican border. They developed a mythology about business and corporations which allows them to have extraordinary powers, primarily through their secret political contributions. <br /><br />Fascism also centralized power in the hands of a dictator. They're doing that quite well at the state level, where reactionary Republican governors have used their powers to destroy labor and education--two traditional countervailing forces.<br /><br />I am depressed that in my lifetime I have to fight fascism twice. <br /><br /><br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-3687891233205552152013-01-08T09:13:41.019-09:002013-01-08T09:13:41.019-09:00There was a letter in my local GOP-run paper last ...There was a letter in my local GOP-run paper last night from some elderly woman who is convinced that the government is coming to get us.

As Rick Perlstein explained in the Baffler, some of the largest conservative media organs are essentially massive email lists of suckers rented to snake oil salesmen. The con isn’t limited to a couple of newsletters and websites: The most prominent conservative organizations in the nation are primarily dedicated to separating conservatives from their money.<br /><br />FreedomWorks, which is funded primarily by very rich people, solicits donations from non-rich conservative people. More than 80,000 people donated money to FreedomWorks in 2012, and it seems likely that only a small minority of those people were hedge fund millionaires. And what are people who donate to this grass-roots conservative organization funded mostly by a few very rich people getting for their hard-earned money?<br /><br />http://www.salon.com/2013/01/07/the_conservative_movement_is_still_an_elaborate_moneymaking_venture/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-11233219858596355522013-01-08T07:18:32.584-09:002013-01-08T07:18:32.584-09:00So very true!
