Tell A Friend

And it’s also the squirrel – the one that was not saving enough for the winter, too.  Essentially, it is spending our inheritance.  Our inheritance and our children’s inheritance, and then spending the wealth of our country.

When I say wealth, I don’t just mean money.  I mean the moral influence, the moral authority that we have in the world as a self-proclaimed bastion of democracy and freedom.

What is your metaphor for the failed conservative values?  For example, if conservative values were a type of machine, or land, or animal,  etc., what would they be like?  

Failed Conservative Values
I ask for your assistance to systematically build the arguments and tell the stories that reveal how Conservative Values have Failed. Join in our effort to create a documentary and book on the subject by contributing  articles, posts, chapters for the book and video clips. Check our website for more information and a growing outline of tasks that need to be done on this project.
