Op-Ed: I Am No Longer A Conservative...

As the title to this Op-Ed implies, I am no longer a Conservative and here is why.

I am an American Patriot first and foremost then and only then, am I a Conservative.

I believe in our Founding Fathers and the documents they created which created this country. I believe in Traditional America. I believe in our United States Constitution as it was written and as it was intended and as it was designed.

Through the years, serving my Nation, I have watched the enemies within strip the Constitution of its preeminence of our society and replace it with a morphed socio-communist-anarchist and tyrannical form of governance and that is not what I served to protect.

Within the last three weeks, I, and others, have appeared on various radio shows and in these segments we discussed the List of 45 that the current crop of belligerent politicos currently unconstitutionally conducting the country's business in DC are gradually accepting and they don't even know it. I was under the misunderstanding that they were smarter than that.

Most occupiers of the Dishonorable Halls of CONgress know exactly what they are doing and they need to be impeached through the normal - read that Constitution - process and removed from office. The Constitutional process is two-fold...removal by impeachment or by physical means. I am ready for both but prefer the former. "We The People" agree to be ruled by consent. If we are no longer being ruled by consent than that form of rule is no longer Constitutional. Unless, naturally, the Constitution has been rescinded without the consent of We The People. I am not familiar with any legislation that has invalidated the Constitution so I can only conclude that it is still our Document of Law. Sometimes I wonder.

The Communists of the late 1940s and early 1950s had vowed to take the United States over from within and they have been widely successful in that endeavor. I am constantly reminded of a statement by Varga: "The fact that the Soviet Union and the greatly shaken capitalist countries showed themselves to be in one powerful camp, ranged against the Fascist aggressors (during World War II), showed that the struggle of the two systems within the democratic camp was temporarily alleviated, suspended, but this of course does not mean the end of the struggle." - World Economy and World Politics, June 1949, Page 11

I am also reminded every day of Marshall Tito: "Our collaboration with capitalism during the war which has recently ended, by no means signifies that we shall prolong our alliance with it in the future. On the contrary, the capitalistic forces constitute our natural enemy despite the act they helped us to defeat their most dangerous representative. It may happen that we shall again decide to make use of their aid, but always with the sole aim of accelerating their final ruin." - Continental News Service, November 8, 1946 and quoted in the "communist Threat To Canada", Ottawa, 1947, pp. 10-11

Now, I don't know about you but, I have heard these same sentiments in recent years. Have you? If not, you need to be paying more attention to world events. They haven't come from the old USSR in recent years but, they have come from the Islamic Nations, 57 of them to be exact. I have also heard these sentiments coming from within my own country from anti-Americanist groups with one member of a particular group that asked the question, "What's wrong with communism anyway?". Amazing. Naturally, the woman that asked that question caught on digital video was obviously an old used up hippie of Code Pink.

We hear from the theoretical "peace activists" and the theoretical "anti-war" crowds terms like "bourgeoisie" and "corporate" this and that, don't we? Whenever I hear such things, I am reminded of others that have stated the exact same verbiage.

Dimitry Z Manuilsky: "Today, of course, we are not strong enough to attack ... To win we shall need the element of surprise. The bourgeoise will have to be put to sleep. So we shall begin by launching the most spectacular peace movement on record. There will be electrifying overtures and unheard of concessions. The capitalist countries, stupid and decadent, will rejoice to cooperate in their own destruction. They will jump at another chance to be friends. As soon as their guard is down, we shall smash them with our clenched fists." - Lenin Law School on Political Warfare, Moscow, 1931.

Lenin: "Hatred for one's own government and one's own bourgeoisie-the sentiment of all class conscious workers ... is a banal phrase if it does not mean revolution against their own governments. It is impossible to rouse hatred against one's own government and one's own bourgeoisie without desiring their defeat." - VI Lenin, Selected Works, Vol. V, p 147.

Lenin: "A revolutionary class in a reactionary war cannot but desire the defeat of its government ... And revolutionary action in wartime against one's own government undoubtedly and incontrovertibly means not only desiring its defeat, but really facilitating such defeat." - VI Lenin, Selected Works, Vol v, p 142.

Read that last one again. Then again. Then again. And when you finish it the third time, read it again and again until you have a full understanding of its intent and impact. Where do we see and hear this today? Nancy Pelosi has applied Lenin's tactic recently in her San Francisco Chronicle interview. Throughout that entire interview, San Fran Nanny has committed High Treason. She willfully and willingly lied. She willfully and willingly emboldened our enemies. She ultimately thanked our enemy Iran for killing our troops and thanked them for being so kind and benevolent.

Many people will not accept the fact that Iran and the United States, thanks to Jimmy Carter, have been in a state of war since 1979. We have no diplomatic relations with Iran. Iran does not have an embassy in the USA and the USA does not have an embassy in Iran, thus, no diplomatic ties, thus, a state of war exists between us. Period. And Nancy THANKS Iran for being so kind?

I say I am no longer a Conservative because the term's implications have been lost. One merely needs to look at the GOP/RNC to gain an actual account as to what a Conservative is not.

However, I believe in the Conservative Ideology and this is what I believe this means: I believe that Conservatism is best for providing the physical needs of all of mankind. I believe that Conservatism provides the best medium in which to satisfy one's spiritual needs. I believe Conservatism is the best medium in which to express one's individuality. I believe Conservatism is the only and best vehicle in which to grow an economy. I believe Conservatism and Capitalism goes hand in hand and one cannot have one without the other. I believe Conservatism promotes individual inspiration. I believe Conservatism promotes personal achievement without government intervention. I believe Conservatism renounces Big Government and government intrusion into States Rights to govern people of any particular State. I believe Conservatism means the lowest possible taxes. I believe Conservatism promotes self-governance, self-control and law abiding citizens. I believe Conservatism means swift justice. I believe Conservatism adheres to the Founding Fathers and the documents they created to form this nation. I believe that Conservatism defines that which is right and that which is wrong. I believe that Conservatism is polar opposites of the major tenets of communism/socialism (nature developed on its own; humans are merely graduated beasts; there is no definitive right or wrong; all religion must be overthrown)

Under Conservatism, we have the freedom to try...and fail. We have the freedom to try and try again. We have the freedom to pursue happiness but we have no government guarantee of happiness...any happiness we achieve is ours and ours alone. We have the freedom to fail and succeed on our own volition and efforts and not to expect or demand government hand-outs. We have the freedom to buy and sell as we so choose to do. We have the freedom to be as free as we choose to be. We have the right to choose between right and wrong and suffer the consequences thereof as defined by society...not the federal government. We are free to be as educated as we choose to be. We are free to raise our children as we see fit and not some unconstitutional organization such as CPS.

Conservatives are law-abiding citizens and always have been. Period. It doesn't mean that Conservatives never do anything illegal or wrong but we know that there are consequences and those consequences are ours alone and not the fault of anyone or anything else. Conservatives believe in personal responsibility. Conservatives take their lumps and move on and don't whine about it.

By default, a True American Patriot is a Conservative plain and simple in my line of reasoning. Some would disagree but, that is to be expected. And, that is one of the freedoms that we have and share without fear of losing our individuality. Socialism/ communism on the other hand, does not allow these freedoms and neither does American "liberalism" or Islamic Fascism.
