Crony Conservatism – Corruption Putting our Children at Risk

Conservative Failure

The spin and damage control has already begun. This morning conservative pundits, are trying the same tired old strategy. When in trouble, blame it on “the gays”. As Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council states, "…when you hold up tolerance and diversity, this is what you end up getting." Saddening, but unsurprising that even in the face of such an outrage as a Congressmen using his position of power to prey on our children, zealot conservatives go into attack mode blaming everyone but those at fault.

Despite arguments that a repressive and intolerant ideology, that is radical moral conservative, made a breeding ground for this behavior (another case of ‘priests syndrome’) there is a legitimate and very real responsibly that falls on the shoulders of the republican leadership. Once again, instead of looking out for those whom they are to serve, the Republican power machine only protected their own interests.

This GOP leadership has taken care of itself only, and failed the American people time and time again. This has consequences for America. Due to the corruption and cronyism in the conservative elites there is increased terrorism, hundreds of thousands stranded in the Gulf, kids priced out of college, senior citizens unable to pay for their medications, an continued demand on foreign oil….

In each case Republicans have put the interests of the few, their friends, major donors, business partners, above the needs of the many. Republican’s sold out our senior citizens to the Pharmaceutical industry. They raised student loan rates for the profit of creditors. They let political a crony handle important emergency relief services. Sold the War in Iraq to the highest bidder, or prevented bidding at all to ensure profit for their own. And now, allowed an unknown number of perverse sexual advances on congressional pages, because they covered up for their fellow representative instead of bringing him to justice, at the first sign of impropriety.

The foundation of this Republican Party, shown time and time again, is not the needs of the people or the best interests of the country, but the rich, big business, and their cronies. It’s time for those in power, who continue to perpetuate this corruption, to step down.
