Yes, it's a site about conservative politics and conservative political issues. It is also a site about Republican politics, but that's not the same as conservative politics, a point I hope to make clearly. I, like many others, am disgusted with Republican politics and the utter disrespect for the Constitution that goes with those neo-conservatives (or is it neo conservatives? {does it matter?}).

This isn't really a conservative blog. We are not just blogging on conservative issue. We mostly discuss so called Conservative Republican politics while real Conservative politics are hardly ever discussed now days. Mostly we hear about Republican politics that certainly are not conservative. This is certainly is not a Republican blog and it goes without saying, it is not a liberal blog. So, if you want to discuss the so-called conservative issues of today, this may not be the place for you. It's definitely not the place for patting each other on the back and admiring current Republican political issues or Republican politics in general. It really is only a blog about how the Republican Party has fled from conservative ideology and abandoned America as it turned its back on freedom.

... he vast majority of Tea Party supporters I have asked say that the TP movement is self funded. They tell me that it is a body of dedicated people joined together to fight big government and its oppression. They seem totally unaware of the huge corporate big money effort that has sustained the TP while injecting special interest ideals and completely reshaping meaning of conservatism. It's not just the multi-billionaire Koch brothers and their Koch Industries, it's the conglomerate of huge insurance companies, big oil and every other powerful corporate interest that can benefit from reducing the power of average people while gaining greater control over government. Case in point; the main financial opposition to Obamacare quietly comes from those insurance companies who were getting a nearly $140 billion subsidy (theoretically for interfacing between patients and Medicare). They lost that under the Health Care Bill and they want it back. That's a lot of corporate welfare and they are willing to fight for it. Not that Obamacare is all that good, but it isn't bad in the ways that Tea Partiers have been led to believe.

Big time religion comes in second in influence over the TP movement. No, the big churches don't contribute the hundreds of millions of dollars that come from big corporations, but they do pump in people. Not just average people, but zealous soldiers who have no regard for the Constitution, the freedoms due Americans or anything else that is not on the Christian agenda. This segment of the TP movement is working fervently at changing the very meaning of the Constitution by attacking its basic principles and revising the history of its founding. You hear it all the time at TP rallies and meeting, "There is no separation of church and state! We are a Christian nation! The Constitution protects family values! Abortion must be stopped!" On and on they attack safeguards to freedoms well grounded and intended in the Constitution. They teach people that the Constitution isn't what our forefathers and the courts have intended. When convenient, they deny science and most of all, they work hard to force these views on everyone. If you have attended a Tea Party rally lately, you've seen that it is working.
