Their Code Words} Lower Taxes, Smaller Government; Bust Thru Their BS
Lower Taxes means two things in the conservative lexicon: 1)Those of us who are Wealthier want to to get wealthier by evasion and avoidance of taxes ... You Cannot Tax the Wealth Here in the Conservative Domain! ;

The Wealthier don't want to pay for us as a nation. The Wealthier DID NOT pay for the war in Iraq that kept getting them elected, per the designs of Karl Rove.


Smaller Government means those of us who are less fortunate will see cuts in Social Security {think of what would have happened with the Wall Street Meltdown if the Bushies had their way with everything heading to Wall St}

&Medicare

& assistance like we DID NOT see for Katrina

BIG CORPATELY WEALTHY SHALL RULE, at the expense of the populace.

Right Wing + Corporate Power/wealth = Fascism
It's happening again in Italy
It happened in Japan
It happened in Spain
I don't know what the hell you'd call Nazi-ism

1. Small government = government that can't stop wealthy bigotry.
This could be from classism,racism,or sexism. The wealthy don't want to pay for low income people, minorities, abortions, better schools in poverty stricken areas ect. They try to hide their classism by saying "this is MY property and I earned it!" Humankind is a social being though. It is natural to morally effiecient people to give money to improve their communities and help the needy. The wealthy's firm stance though against taxes that would help the community though can only be do to a hatred towards the people those taxes would go to. It only shows that racism is worse here in America than anywhere else.
