apparently one consistent characteristic about being a conservative is being for Authoritarianism.
Authoritarians also tend toward simplistic ways of thinking; things are black or white, right or wrong. If something is right for one person, it should be right for everyone and everyone should see it as right. They don’t tolerate ambiguity and have little taste for subtlety or dissenting opinions. To an authoritarian, the way to solve problems is to find a powerful, confident leader—a sort of superhero who claims in unambiguous language that he can solve your problems—and then follow that person.
I was just thinking the same thing. It seems every time the Corporate Republicans open their mouth lately, they are blaming some person, group, agency or Institution, non-stop. They cannot stand on their own 2 feet, their like children. The lying, on top of other lie's, on top of more lie's is getting depressing. How can a Government function if every thing out of their mouth is a fabrication. This is not leadership, it's gangster behavior, con artist games and worse is that they really believe Americans are this stupid. Russia has a better opinion on Americans than Washington.

Ask them about all the funding they cut from their beloved vets

The military is built on a chain of command and strict authority, so of course veneration of the military should go with a conservative outlook.
Classic GOP Ploy..........just mention "The Troops"........like they actually give a damn about any of them, to seem patriotic.
Meanwhile, their voting record against bills that would HELP vets is dismal.
Cadet Bone Spurs, can spare me his fake patriotism.
Yes that is correct. They need troops to have wars for profit.. they dont really care about them.. they just use them as tools.

Try not to exaggerate.
No. Cons bleat about the troops and support Cadet Bone Spurs. They long ago exposed themselves as lying hypocrites. Cons have no credibility.
I'm sure it sounded awesome in your head....
