Conservative Support of Darth Vader and the Empire by Future of Freedom Foundation April 28, 2010 Isn’t it fascinating that so many conservatives steadfastly remain committed to the imperial role that the United States now plays in the world, even while claiming to support the limited-government republic of our forefathers? Hundreds of thousands of imperial troops are stationed on hundreds of military bases in more than 100 countries. Cities and towns all across America live in desperate fear that they might go belly up if their bases are closed and their military welfare were to come to a halt Military personnel retire with fat U.S. taxpayer pensions, only to travel a short distance to accept lucrative positions with military contractors who have been on the generous military dole for generations Arrogant and pretentious
Rebuilding America: Domestic Policy by Future of Freedom Foundation April 26, 2010 Almost everything the federal government has touched for the last several decades is in crisis. The war on drugs: failure and destruction. Social Security: fraudulent and bankrupt. Foreign policy: led to 9/11 and massive assaults on civil liberties.

Unfortunately, it doesnt really matter whos in charge the Republicans or the Democrats because the results ...
