Conservatism Defined: Ignorance Personified
"IGNORANCE PERSONIFIED"
Are you getting the picture? I think I am. The conservative agenda is founded on fear and ignorance. Look at the face of conservatives: George W. Bush. I don't think this country has ever had a more ignorant resident in the White House, including Billy Carter (okay, I'm dating myself but, remember "Billy Beer?). When Bush stood on the podium a couple of weeks ago and claimed that we are a "decent society", I thought I would yet again die of embarrassment as an American. Given the scandels and lies that have marked republican reign and the fact that they have used anything, legal or not, to justify the war in Iraq, and maintain their power here in the United States, how can we even pretened to be a "decent society". When we kill and rape children, allow people in this country to die on our streets, cause suffering and pain where ever we go, how could he stand there and make that claim with a straight face?
