“CONSERVATIVE”—What does it mean?

“Abuse of words has been the great instrument of sophistry and chicanery, party, faction, and division of society”—John Adams, March 31, 1819

Does being a “conservative” denote a person who truly believes in and upholds the tenets of the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the sage advice of our Founding Fathers?

If so, many calling themselves “conservatives” are charlatans or worse and who hijacked the term for nefarious means, luring well-meaning citizens into their web of deceit as participants in perpetuating a bastardized term.

If one calls oneself a “conservative” & is a true believer in the Founding principles:
1. How can one support preemptive, unconstitutional wars?
2. How can one take pride in a military whose mission is to kill, maim, and destroy infrastructure & antiquities in any nation who has done us no harm?
3. Only congress can declare war and for truthful, dire reasons—we have not been attacked by any country—the various “terror attacks” allegedly perpetrated by individuals not officially representing foreign military would point to apprehension/incarceration, etc. of said individuals, not wholesale attacks on entire countries.
4. Much evidence including physical, eyewitnesses, expert professionals, etc. has been available to the government concerning all the “terrorist” attacks, yet none are listened to or publicized/reported by government agencies or their MSM .
5. In light of government performance or lack thereof, and their accomplishments in diminishing our freedoms and the shredding of our Founding Documents & Principles—why would you trust their versions of any critical events, much less jump on their bandwagon?

“Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none…” Thomas Jefferson in his first inaugural address.

“If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy”. James Madison

In plain language—the Neo-Cons (Leo Strauss followers—similar to Alinsky) have coopted the term Conservative for their own nefarious reasons just as the Collectivists have done to the word Liberal.

In other words, the Republican Party is now the party of warmongering Fascists/Crony Capitalists and the Democrat Party is now the party of Socialists/Communists.

If you stand with the Founders you are a Constitutionalist or a Declarationist (Declaration of Independence upholder). (Libertarians are open border advocates which destroys our culture, language, & borders)
.
STOP CALLING YOURSELF A CONSERVATIVE, THEREBY AIDING AND ABETTING THE NEOCONSERVATIVES!

(If you are not sure who the famous neocons are here is a random smattering of them: Cruz, Rubio, Rove, Bolton, Boozman, Cotton, Womack, Rumsfeld, Perle, Bushes, Kagans, Kristol, Goldberg, Wolfowitz, Cheney, Krauthammer, Libby, Abrams, Cohen, Nuland, Ledeen, Woolsey, Rubin, Pipes, Frum, Podhoretz, O’Reilly, Hannity, Levin, Beck, & most party line Republicans.)
