So, which is it?

It seems these days that the far right-wingers are not using the word Republican as much anymore, instead they refer to themselves as conservatives. Well hell, I'm a conservative but not a republican. We live in a democracy, not a republic. If we did live in a republic, then the constitution would be the law of the land and there would be no IRS, Social Security, Federel Reserve Notes or Federal Reserve.

As he so often does these days, Rush Limbaugh sets the trends in the right-wing noise chamber. If you've listened to Limbaugh's radio show lately, you'll notice that he has rarely mentioned the word "Republican" since November. Indeed, he goes out of his way every 30 seconds to mention that he's actually a "conservative."

1. Rush Limbaugh is a main stream conservative and no "far right winger."

2. He has always called himself a conservative and there are none in the Democrat Party.

3. Listen to him BF and you may actually gain a modecum of knowlege.

BF, the only way you qualify as being a 'conservative' is if you lived in the old Soviet Russia, and they were still Communist. THEN you'd be a conservative SOCIALIST. Con/Lib have reverse meanings depending on which side of the Iron curtain you were on.

We live in a democracy, not a republic

This nation was FORMED as a Republic, and sadly has drifted ever toward being a Democracy. It started w/ FDR, and continued unfettered since the post WW2 period. My wonder as to WHY this has been allowed to happened is ever present.

FDR is one of the antichrists. The things he set in motion will eventually be some of the reasons for this country's downfall.

FDR

LBJ

GWB

Three presidents who greatly expanded the role of government in our private lives. Start moving the money offshore folks, because unless somebody steps up with some political courage, we're going to see a huge set of problems coming home to roost in about 5-10 years.

What offshore locales do you consider safe from governmental interference?

Liechtenstein. Dubai. The Caymans. Safe deposit boxes rather than accounts. Don't mean to be an alarmist, but the current entitlements trends will begin to necessitate huge tax increases.
