Displaying 31 To 60 Of 61 Comments The Failed History of Conservatism in America Hey brother,right back at you and great to see you here as well!!! » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 10, 2011 @ 3:45 pm Of course it’s mainly a generalization, afterall walk into a room of any ten people from any walk of life and/or political leaning and there’s bound to be at least one complete asshole there, just more than likely to find two or more if they lean right, :). » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 10, 2011 @ 5:44 am Exactly, but also that in the face of obvious economic realities, they are delusional. We all know “reality has a well-known liberal bias”. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 10, 2011 @ 5:42 am Agreed, the real problem is that many of them are suffering for whatever reason and fail to see that ‘their’ party is only interested in making things worse, not to mention the hypocrisy of “Keep you goddamn government hands off my medicaid…social security…library… whatever” » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 8:55 pm OK, so I googled “conservatives are…” and found this FAUX news link that tells: “Individuals with conservative ideologies are happier than liberal-leaners, and new research pinpoints the reason: Conservatives rationalize social and economic inequalities. Regardless of marital status, income or church attendance, right-wing individuals reported greater life satisfaction and well-being than left-wingers, the new study found. Conservatives also scored highest on measures of rationalization, which gauge a person’s tendency to justify, or explain away, inequalities. The rationalization measure included statements such as: “It is not really that big a problem if some people have more of a chance in life than others,” and “This country would be better off if we worried less about how equal people are.” Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,354424,00.html#ixzz1DWm4HgLF They can’t even see the irony of what this says about them, they wear their badge of rationalizing( self and selfish delusion)with honor and abandonment. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 8:44 pm Agreed, I’ve always found our ‘free market’ democracy, quite literally astonishing… » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 9:09 pm Arianna is the modern definition of a “Sellout”, both literally » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 12, 2011 @ 12:35 pm He literally bullies the “guests” he doesn’t agree with, he’s been known to physically intimidate them and or verbally scream at them, it’s really quite telling that so many watch this clown. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 11, 2011 @ 5:26 am Why thanks boom, great to see you here as well! » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 9:11 am You too friend, no doubt about the headlines…don’t get me started about that tag-line trash…:) » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 9:10 am Why thank you,hope to see more from you here 🙂 » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 9:07 am Agreed, watching total filth being posted and then having sane and tame comments deleted… » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 7:04 am Very nice…a coded piece or a cod piece? both barely hiding something eh, lol. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 9, 2011 @ 7:00 am Felt good, I can always hold my hand over a flame again…see if the nerve endings are still there… » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 11:22 pm There’s what’s written and the truth behind it, awesome AL just awesome! » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 11:19 pm Look at my most recent email: Yeah, right they’ll miss me…as a number. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 10:56 pm Thanks…Again, it’s a great place to hang my hat…no tri-corners hanging here I see, lol. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 10:53 pm Excellent, short,sweet to the point…and perfecto choice of rock! » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 10:39 pm Yeah, I joined there a few years ago and was on daily, couple thousands posts and 370 fans…363 when I left…watched it pretty much degrade itself until the AOL BS…Good to have a new place to hang my hat. » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 10:37 pm TY KB, I have deactivated my scummington post account! » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 10:27 pm Done, Thank You bito! » Posted By PlatoSunTsu On February 8, 2011 @ 10:26 pm Thanks zoot!

Conservativism in one way attempts to reach back into time…a “better” time, when everything was just peachy in their view, it’s really quite fantasy based.
“Happy” is a relative term, the article does not go into great deal about defining it, but I would think that the opposite of a conservative would be a realist…and well, sometimes reality isn’t such a ‘happy’ place on the face of it, especially when you’re constantly striving for progress, as it is.
Why Conservatives Are Happier Than Liberals

They say “look at us libs we’re happy because we don’t care about anyone below our current class,we’re always looking towards the stars ( read: more money) you’d do well to join us, after all the well being of the serfs could never be our lot ( even when they themselves are…) and would never affect our proper place in the current caste we inhabit, soon to move up…it’s the “American Dream” after all now isn’t it, excuse me whilst I drape a flag over my shoulders.”
I can go to the grocery store and pick one of hundreds of different boxes of cereals, yet when I go to vote, there are really only three choices, R, D or write in.
The two main parties ( that could each be split many times over) are in collusion to keep any third out and you do make a good point Adonai, we do have the choice of a third or more, we just “want to be on the winning team”.
We are political apathists…
But what to do?
( via AOL) and ideologically ( flip,flop,flip so far…).
She is slowly coming to resemble a new creature henceforth to be referred to as:
Arianna Orly Taitzington 😉
He is the epitome of the 900lb. gorilla.
Just the AOL story itself was such a piece of disgusting one-sided, fluffy crapola, that article alone was the final straw for me…
“Hi, PlatoSunTsu.
You have successfully closed your account with The Huffington Post. We’ll miss you!
If you want to sign up again later, you may do so here. ”
I wonder what their expectation were for account deactivations and if they track the ‘quality’ of the members that have left?
Quality being high number posters, with badges and fans?
One of my last posts there was this, they actually posted it…about a day after I wrote it…
“Another swine feeding at the corporate trough…great job HuffPo thanks for showing again,how hypocrisy runs rampant in this country.
I should’ve seen this coming, half the time I logged on here I thought I was on Fakebook anyway what with the constant advertising bombardment and p-poor moderating.
I’ll be on here for another heartbeat before I post my Sayonara Manifesto...
Adios to mi amigos and recommendations for other unpolluted sites welcome.
PlatoSunTsu”
Having a hard time tracking my posts and responses, can’t seem to find them, any help would be appreciated.
