Actually, Fez, it's you that the majority of people are not listening to. Even in the good old US of A, a majority now believe the War on Iraq was not worth the cost!For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

Part of me disagrees with you in that if you drive all your allies away from yourself and generally mess up like you are now, the terrorists win.
But the other part of me agrees with you, in that by doing the above you continue to support glorious nations like China and IndiaFor there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

I wonder who's organizing these marches... Could it be... the commies?
CommiesI came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

And Agathon shows his lack of political knowledge entirely. He has NO CLUE what neo-conservatism is (or conservatism for that matter). Preconcieved notions about a political philosophy... is that how teaches his philosophy classes? I hope not .
But if we look at what they do, rather than what they say we can see that conservatives are quite happy with radical change when it involves the destruction of a fifty year old welfare system. They really believe in inequality and nothing you, or anyone else, has said has managed to raise a good argument against that point.
Inequality is the unifying idea of the political right. It is what shows fascism and capitalism to be of the same ilk.
Maybe Asher was right about philosophy profs . They simply can't seem to get their heads around reality, passed their preconcieved notions about certain ideologies.Only feebs vote.

Agay, do you really think you have been successful at defining conservativism than others around here?.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.
