    Our conservative Republican founders created a very very tiny central govt with only a few enumerated powers and modern liberal treasonously oppose this which is why they spied for Stalin and elected Sanders/Obama


    1) Republican cant always be conservative since they need to get elected and reelected which often requires support from the middle and even some from the left.

    2) and even when they are conservative they often don't act that way when they need votes from the middle and the party opposite to get reelected.

    3) when they hold one office they don't hold the entire govt so even if they are conservative and don't need the middle or party opposite they still may not produce conservative govt.

    4) Republicans have proposed 30 Balanced Budget Amendments ( all killed by liberals), shut down the govt 16 times, tried not to raise debt ceiling, nominated Goldwater and Reagan, voted 32 times against Obamacare, voted against stimulus, most have signed Grovers pledge to never raise taxes, and are now about to repeal Obamacare and name conservative Court justices 10000% opposed by liberals. You have learned this lesson 67 tims. Must we go for 68???????
    All this has been 100% opposed by liberals.

    5) the job in Congress pays $175,000 so the second conservative libertarians can be elected they will appear. The Party is merely a reflection of who can be elected so it is never to be blamed,
    the voters are to be blamed.



    Way over your head - right??

    Obviously you are. You didn't bother to say why Democrats opposed those bills and efforts. They all would have benefited the richest while harming the rest of us. That's why Democrats opposed them. Some of them are utterly stupid. like the Obamacare repeal vote when they had nothing better to offer, yet you don't see that. LOL!!!!

    Capitalism is freedom; there are 100 million corporations free to create the relationship in 100 million ways. If one way worked better to create better jobs and products competition would notice it and it would become normal. Do you understand now?

    Lol, the founders were radical liberals.


    Because centrism is the only way to govern.

    .
    Excuses
    A government can't ever be conservative. Conservatism loses to progressivism, every time. It is always inevitable. Conservatism' only function is to,prevent too much change, too fast.
    Republicans grow the government and debt as fast or faster than democrats.
    Libertarians are morons. There will never be a libertarian party or candidate that can ever win.


    Having refuted you point by point, not sure why you would think that? Lol

    Democrats opposed balanced budget amendments because it would mean less spending on crippling welfare which Democrats need to buy more votes

    impossible since Republicans introduced 30 BBA's to make debt illegal and Democrats killed every one of them. Do you know why?

    Lol, conservative republicans grow government at just as fast or faster rate than liberals. "Conservative" Thomas Jefferson for example.

    Modern conservatives oppose the very concept of America.

    See? I can say stupid **** too.

    Constitution with ony a few enumerated powers is evidence that founders were very very conservative exactly like modern conservative Republicans. Why do you think our liberals spied for Stalin and Hitler and gave Stalin the bomb?

    Are you saying that Jefferson was a conservative? Seriously? He was a radical liberal.
