Thanks for the bump. "God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787 |

Thanks for the bump. lol? brainwashed much? I wonder what document inspired the US Constitution??? ummmm..... could it be the Magna Carta from the UK? Real Freedom? you mean the freedom you have never had in the US? lol... wait... funnier this way: "you never learned what real freedom is"..... says the guy that lives in the country with the large prison population in the world who enslaves the rest of the world with their military and FIAT monopoly money... Am I saying the English are free? no... I fucking hate this goverment and the history of this country... but at least I dont repeat brainwashed rhetoric about freedom when my country has the most slaves in the world and enslaves the rest of the world through debt and invades any country that tries to break away from that form of slavery. A conservative in short is... another wing of the same bird that bows down to the FED and makes the people of its nation take it up the ass but as long as they can be brainwashed with patriotism and mindless rhetoric (Land of the Free, Home of the Brave) they'll believe their are free and the greatest nation in the world. |

SERIOUSLY? He just praised MASONRY as the source of America's greatness and OP missed that on a CONSPIRACY FORUM? Fucking LOL! OP didn't miss a thing. Several different kinds of people and groups were listed as an example of "the people" being what made America great, not government. Or did you also think that "small businesses, churches, schools, fire departments, and little league baseball" are masonic conspiracies too? Thanks for the bump.

Oh goodie! The bitterly biased AC responded. You came close to the subject of the little 90 second video only once in 6 paragraphs. Congrats on even knowing that there is such a thing as the Magna Carta and that many principles from it did inform the basic arguments for the US constitution. The point Ben Sasse was making in the video was very clear. Our government was instituted to secure our natural rights (there's your Magna Carta reference) given by God. Such a government should by definition have very limited power and be controlled by the people. What is a conservative? It should be someone who strives to conserve (there's that root word) that original principle by acknowledging the divine provision of natural rights and limiting the authority of government to do nothing more than to secure those rights. In short a political conservative is someone who wants to conserve for the future what we had at our founding.
