Conservatives: Always on the wrong side of history.

Quote from RCG Trader:

There will always be one who acts profoundly against their best interests.

Did you know that jews often worked in concentration camps in Nazi Germany, often at the expense of their fellow jews.

This is what a black conservative is. Blacks due to historical circumstances have little to "conserve".

But there will always be the brainwashed one or two.

Indeed, black people seem to be operating against their own best interests. Every single time in the last 2 centuries that black people have gotten fucked over by someone it has been a democrat/liberal, and yet you have been brainwashed into thinking that it is the republicans who are screwing you.

Here is a hint, the only way society can screw people based on skin color is through collectivism. Which side supports collectivism?
 
To say there is a right side and a wrong side of history is really kind of stupid, there is only history.

let's see in the last 100 years conservatives have changed the course on the following with generally agreed on good results...

1. 70's Inflation
2. Vietnam
3. The Soviet Union, communism, and the cold war
4. The US budget and economy 1995-2000
5. Breaking the phone monopoly
6. deregulating airlines.
7. Changes in Sweden to stabilize finances, mid 90s to now
8. conservatives were the only ones who stood against bailouts


I could go on, but to say conservatives never change things or that conservative change is always a bad thing is pure horseshit purveyed by those purveyors of horseshit- the libs

CONSERVATIVES: ALWAYS ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY:

1) Conservatives opposed the American Revolution

Conservatives vehemently warned us that it was unnatural to rebel against our Sovereign Lord, King George III, and that doing so would plunge the colonies into disorder. They assured us, as the father of conservatism, Edmund Burke echoed, that social stability would only come from the small group of wealthy aristocrats ruling over the poor majority. Conservatives reiterated that it was the duty of the poor to obey their “betters.” Their rewards, after all, will come in Heaven.

2) Conservatives opposed freeing the slaves

I know, I know. Here’s where the sophomoric CONS, lacking the ability for complex thought, will whine that Lincoln, a Republican, freed the slaves. But as Southern historian Al Benson, Jr. wrote in his article, “The Republican Party, There are NO conservative roots there,”

“It is interesting to note that, in 1860, the Democrats were the real conservatives, while the Republicans were the left-leaning radicals.”

The Republican Party of the 1860’s, as evidenced by their platform, was a progressive party that rose in opposition to the entrenched power structure. It called for protective tariffs, Besides emancipating the slaves, Lincoln was in favor of progressive taxation. The Revenue Act of 1862 levied a 3% tax on people making between $600 and $10,000 a year, and a 5% for those making over $10,000.

As Andrew Belonsky wrote for Death and Taxes,

“Lincoln believed that rich Americans should pay more than their less wealthy friends and neighbors.”

But, because they are CONS and want to rig the system in their favor, they only considered slaves “people” for purposes of counting them in order to increase the slave-state representation in Congress.

Conservatives warned that freeing the slaves, believe it or not, was an affront to liberty – as well as an evil government plot to force hardworking business owners to release their property. After all, as the Bible tells us, and as Rush Limbaugh later reminded us, “some people are just born to be slaves.”

3) Conservatives opposed women’s suffrage

Conservatives warned us that women just didn’t have the mind, much less the disposition, for politics. They would, of course, get all hysterical – and if they’re having their periods! Well, look out, men! As Limbaugh cautioned again, uppity women might put testicles in a lock box and upset the “natural” hierarchy.

Even today, in 2012, CONS (such as, Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, tea party activist, Fox News contributor, and founder of an organization where Sean Hannity serves as an advisory board member) lament that the worst thing that ever happened to America was that women were given the right to vote.

4) Conservatives opposed minimum wage and child labor laws, the 8-hour work day, weekends, sick leave… etc.

Conservatives warned us that the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, which established a national minimum wage, guaranteed ‘time-and-a-half’ for overtime in certain jobs and banned child labor, was going to collapse the economy. But President Franklin Roosevelt countered at the time, “Do not let any calamity-howling executive with an income of $1,000 a day, …tell you…that a wage of $11 a week is going to have a disastrous effect on all American industry.” What a surprise! He was right and conservatives were wrong.

70 years later, CONS are still trying to undo the minimum wage and get those kids out of the classroom and back into the factories of Republican campaign contributors.

Point one is an outright lie. lol he might mean the loyalists were conservative in the sense that they didn't want change, but that was before the Revolution and American political parties, not to be confused with modern conservatives. None of the founders were loyalists obviously and they sure as shit weren't liberal in the sense of the word today. In fact the authors of the Declaration and Constitution, Jefferson and Madison, started the republican party opposing the Federalists led by hamilton and his abuse of federal power. So the original conservative party opposed big federal govt, sound familiar? Obviously these guys didn't oppose the Revolution.. how dumb.
 
Quote from Mav88:

You do know 'progessive' lincoln wanted to deport freed slaves, right?

the minimum wage is a feel good sham, if it really worked then we would simply raise it to $50/hour

contextual changes and revisionism are rampant, I could make a liberal list but why bother following a cut and paste

Big difference between deportation and returning them to their homeland where they were kidnapped from. Come on, they didn't swim across the Rio Grande to get here on their own volition, or the Atlantic ocean.

I don't care what words you want to choose, Lincoln felt that black people didn't belong living with whites. He entertained the idea of making them a country in central america.

OK, let's try to help. I checked again, just to be sure. I am sure that Slave Traders kidnapped blacks from Africa and brought them here as slaves.

How could you even question that? I suppose the Holocaust didn't happen either, and Japan did not attack Pearl Harbor. Don't be silly.

Get real that's like implying daytraders are participating in active mgmt of the company in the stocks they trade.
You are sure of what, slave traders actively kidnapped slaves or they bought slaves for transport?

nice try though.

Now I will ask again who kidnapped whom?

and
Why is it blacks think they were the only people of the earth to be treated as slaves?
