After only a little more than five weeks of Obama being in office, the conservatives are desperately creating the illusion that America is outrage at the direction the country is headed. They are once again spouting the same tired old rhetoric that made the electorate vote against many of the things they stood for in the November election. And it sure is sad to watch them take up the banner for a futile cause in this time in our history. Their shouts at CPAC remind me of what Beneatha Younger said in 'A Raisin in the Sun.' She mocked her brother Walter Lee's idealism with the comment: "Well, there are all those prophets who'll lead us out of the wilderness and into the swamps."
The conservatives are blindly looking for their own "Messiah", since many of their Republican leaders have basically used them for their voting bloc, while favoring corporate bigwigs who essentially wiped out the life savings, 401k and stocks of many of these conservatives. Even with Reagonomics proving itself to be ineffective, they still cling to textbook philosophy rather than economic reality.
These people are just stupid. They are emotional. They just don't have the facts. If any of them actually looked at the numbers, there is no way they could disagree with what economists already know. U.S. is nearly on the verge of a monetary collapse, yet these fools are still yelling, "trickle down economics" under the guise of the words "freedom", "liberty", and "free markets."
