Obama is a Conservative…Only If You Think Equal Rights are Optional

36. If doing it is wrong, equal rights to do it are a low priority

The current administration is making the world hugely worse for the 99% and better for the 1%. That sort of discrimination really offends me. What race and gender preference the 1% are is of much less concern to me.

The current administration acts as though it believes a bunch of neoconservative dogma about world domination, corporate rule, and the abolition of human rights. That's conservative no matter how you look at it.

I've seen, many times on DU, lists of ten to twenty different issues in which the administration takes a stand substantially to the right of the population. I've seen many lists of progressive accomplishments, but no lists of twenty or thirty issues where the administration is to the left of the population. Maybe if I take Fox News' word for all of it. That also seems conservative by any reasonable definition.

The House is batshit crazy. They aren't a sensible reference for "conservative" (or even "Republican&quot at all.
