@coldjoint,
They aren't personal once they affect public policy, asshole. Ever hear of equal access? Of course not. Its in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

The individuals backing the American conservative agenda..


Soros is the main support of the progressive agenda. A self hating Jew just like Carl Marx. If anyone is out to slit throats.

Quote:
The Democracy Alliance is known to consist of at least 100 donor-partners but historically has been quite secretive regarding their identities. Nevertheless, the Capital Research Center has managed to compile the names of some of the more significant current and former DA partners (in addition to George Soros and Rob Stein).274 A large percentage of them have significant ties to Soros that extend well beyond their shared membership in the Democracy Alliance. Among these partners are the following:

AFL-CIO: This institutional DA partner is the largest labor federation in America and was a member of Soros's Shadow Party in 2004.
Bauman Foundation co-director Patricia Bauman serves as a board member of the Soros-funded Natural Resources Defense Council.
Property-development CEO Albert Dwoskin is the chairman of Catalist, a Soros-funded political consultancy.275
Manhattan-based child psychologist Gail Furman belongs to the Council on Foreign Relations and is a board member of Human Rights First and the Brennan Center for Justice—all organizations that receive funding from George Soros and OSI.276
Software entrepreneur Tim Gill is a major funder of gay-rights groups such as the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network, which is also supported by Soros.277
Technology entrepreneur Davidi Gilo has given at least $17,600 to J Street, an organization that is consistently critical of Israel and has close ties to Soros.278
Media-software mogul Rob Glaser was an early backer of the Soros-funded America Coming Together.279
“Racial justice organizer” Connie Cagampang Heller works closely with the Soros-funded Tides Foundation.280
Hyatt Hotel luminary Rachel Pritzker Hunter has served as treasurer of the Soros-funded Media Matters For America.281
Economist and former banking executive Rob Johnson once served as a portfolio manager for George Soros’s Quantum Fund.282
Michael Kieschnick founded Working Assets, a long-distance telephone/credit card company that donates a percentage of its profits to leftist groups and causes.283 He is also a board member of the Soros-funded evangelical group Sojourners.284
Longtime technology executive John Luongo is a former board member of Planned Parenthood and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington—both Soros-funded enterprises.285
Atlantic Philanthropies president and CEO Gara LaMarche was formerly vice president of Soros's Open Society Institute. He also served a stint as associate director of Human Rights Watch and held a variety of positions with the ACLU—both organizations that are heavily funded by Soros.286
Television producer Norman Lear created the Soros-backed group, People for the American Way.
Progressive Insurance Company chairman Peter Lewis has many close ties to Soros and was a major funder of the Shadow Party during the 2004 election cycle.287
Taco Bell heir Robert McKay has been a founding board member of America Coming Together, a board member of the Ms. Foundation for Women, and a director of the Fund for America288—all of which are beneficiaries of Soros money.
Tides Foundation founder and longtime CEO Drummond Pike has close ties to Soros, who is a major funder of Tides.
Democrat activist Simon Rosenberg founded the New Policy Institute, a project of the Tides Foundation. He also sits on the board of the Soros-funded publication Democracy: A Journal of Ideas. And in 1996 he created the New Democrat Network, a Soros-financed organization committed to pushing the Democratic Party further leftward.289
Golden West Financial Corporation founders Herb and Marion Sandler are philanthropic allies of George Soros and were heavy funders of Shadow Party organizations in 2004—giving some $13 million to anti-Bush “527 committees.”290
Trial lawyer Guy Saperstein formerly served as president of the Soros-funded Sierra Club.291
Service Employees International Union: The longtime former president of this union, Andrew Stern, sat on the executive committee of the Soros-funded America Coming Together.292
George Soros's son Jonathan is president and co-deputy chairman of Soros Fund Management.
DA board member Michael Vachon is the director of communications at Soros Fund Management and the overseer of Soros’s political contributions.293

No grants were pledged at the Democracy Alliance's April 2005 gathering in Phoenix, but at an Atlanta meeting three months later, DA partners pledged $39 million—about a third of which came directly from George Soros and Peter Lewis.294 Because the Alliance has largely refrained from providing information about its giving, only a small percentage of its donees are known to the public.295 Thus it is impossible to determine precisely how much money DA has disbursed since its inception. Most estimates, though, place the figure at more than $100 million.296 One source—Alliance member Simon Rosenberg—claimed in August 2008 that DA had already “channeled hundreds of millions of dollars into progressive organizations.”297 Below are the names of a number of DA's known donees298—and in certain cases the sums they have received from the Alliance. Again, the Capital Research Center was instrumental in identifying these donees, many of whom have financial and ideological ties to Soros and the Open Society Institute that long predate their connections to the Democracy Alliance.299

I was not talking about the problem with supporters of the liberal agenda, CJ...nor did I in any way suggest there were no problems on that side of the continuum.

I was focusing on the supporters of the American conservative agenda.

The people supporting the American conservative agenda are backing the agenda of people who would not piss on them if they burst into flames; they are steadying the hands of people trying to slit their throats.

I really wish you could see that.

In addition to those organizations that are funded directly by George Soros and his Open Society Institute (OSI), there are also numerous "secondary" or "indirect" affiliates of the Soros network. These include organizations which do not receive direct funding from Soros and OSI, but which are funded by one or more organizations that do.

Center for Progressive Leadership: Funded by the Soros-bankrolled Democracy Alliance, this anti-capitalist organization is dedicated to training future leftist political leaders.
John Adams Project:This project of the American Civil Liberties Union was accused of: (a) having hired investigators to photograph CIA officers thought to have been involved in enhanced interrogations of terror suspects detained in Guantanamo, and then (b) showing the photos to the attorneys of those suspects, some of whom were senior al-Qaeda operatives.
Moving Ideas Network (MIN): This coalition of more than 250 leftwing activist groups is a partner organization of the Soros-backed Center for American Progress. MIN was originally a project of the Soros-backed American Prospect and, as such, received indirect funding from the Open Society Institute. In early 2006, The American Prospect relinquished control of the Moving Ideas Network.
New Organizing Institute: Created by the Soros-funded MoveOn.org, this group "trains young, technology-enabled political organizers to work for progressive campaigns and organizations."
Think Progress: This "project" of the American Progress Action Fund, which is a "sister advocacy organization"of the Soros-funded Center for American Progress and Campus Progress, seeks to transform "progressive ideas into policy through rapid response communications, legislative action, grassroots organizing and advocacy, and partnerships with other progressive leaders throughout the country and the world."

Vote for Change: Coordinated by the political action committee of the Soros-funded MoveOn.org, Vote for Change was a group of 41 musicians and bands that performed concerts in several key election "battleground"states during October 2004, to raise money in support of Democrat John Kerry's presidential bid.
Working Families Party: Created in 1998 to help push the Democratic Party toward the left, this front group for the Soros-funded ACORN functions as a political party that promotes ACORN-friendly candidates.

I understand that you do, CJ...and I respect your right to do so. Obviously I disagree with you strongly on the issue.

American conservatism is an abomination...a blight on our nation. I wish the Republican Party would go back to sanity, but I do not see that happening soon, unless the Democrats are able to put a major hurt on them at the polling places...which I also see as a long shot, considering the electoral advantage in place for American conservatism.

They are not Democrats. They are progressive monsters out to destroy who they can't control. The intimidation of government agencies on citizens for making choices to support other ideas than theirs shows that. The attack on marriage and family show that.

The left is devious and is not above whatever it takes, and that is very wrong if you value justice. Something they want no part of. The very fairness and tolerance you hype is lost on them. Intolerance and even violence are their trademarks.

Indeed. The "First Amendment Area" is supposed to be something called "the United States". If the Bureau of Land Management gets to determine which sliver of turf you can exercise your right to freedom of expression in, then it isn't freedom of expression at all, is it?


Something like this happened in Dearborn. Dearborn was sued and lost.
This is government tyranny. There is nothing else to call it. Federal land is our land. We are the Federal government. The government has no right to take these rights a put them in any area in this country.

BREAKING: 200+ “Militarized” Federal Police Surround Peaceful Rancher in Nevada
Quote:
BREAKING: 200+ “Militarized” Federal Police Surround Peaceful Rancher in Nevada



Quote:
We’ve seen before at Ruby Ridge and Waco that the feds won’t hesitate to treat peaceful American citizens as hostile and confront them with full armed force. This is happening yet again in Clark County, Nevada.

For over twenty years now, a battle has raged between cattle rancher Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management. Bundy has been using federal land to allow his cattle to graze, and the BLM has argued that this is “trespassing” because the land is protected and because Bundy has not paid required grazing fees.
http://conservativetribune.com/armed-feds-surround-rancher/?utm_medium=twitter&amp;utm_source=twitterfeed
The federal agency has now secured a court order to forcibly confiscate the cattle using heavy artillery.


Quote:
This is exactly why the Founders intended for us to be able to arm ourselves. The federal government can quickly become tyrannical, and when it does, citizens have a moral right to fight back. Next time someone asks why individuals should be able to own assault weapons, this situation is a good example of exactly why that is. We live in a police state now, and armed citizens will be the only thing standing between liberty and complete tyranny.

Progressives are "trying" to help the less fortunate among us. They are being opposed by people who support the notion of "Hurrah for me...screw you!"

Only to someone who's mind is closed. In any case, some bureaucratic abuse is almost inevitable in a government as large as ours...and happens when progressives are in charge...and when staunch conservatives are in charge. (Google the name Oliver North.)

There is an attack on marriage and family???

Not that I can see.

But FOX News is conservative, CJ...and so is Rush Limbaugh.

A man fired for supporting traditional marriage is not an assault on marriage? Clean those glasses. It is also an assault on free speech.

Progressives are not narrow minded like you, Frank. Progressives don't make lame excuses for the war crimes and terrorism of their country. Their concern extends beyond the narrow confines that border and blinker your thinking.

Progressives are organizing minorities, telling them they are victims promising to support them, with other peoples money, all to gain power and control.

And those people will remain less fortunate by design.

Europe’s Far Right Revival

Quote:
The far right has won big elsewhere in Europe recently. In France, the National Front, which runs on an anti-immigrant platform, had a strong showing in mayoral elections, while the UK Independence Party is gaining traction after its charismatic leader Nigel Farage thrashed Liberal Democrat Nick Clegg in a televised debate. In Greece, the ultra-nationalist Golden Dawn has become one of the country’s most influential parties. All across Europe, far-right fringe groups are capitalizing on establishment parties’ ongoing failure to address their concerns.
