Can a Third Party Save Us From a Neocon Doom?

Robert Schumacher/Prison Planet | November 30 2005

Unchecked “neconservative” power in the United States over the past six years has brought us to bloody international warfare, attempted to establish a technological and executive police state, and helped rush out of America any industry that can be moved to foreign places whose pitiful social conditions generate big profits for a privileged few of our citizens. We have seen the GOP under neocon rule change its flags from the standard of the “old republic” to that of a new empire, the power thrust of an elite corporate globalism. Neocons seem to be at odds with the traditions of the republican party, whose constituency is largely middle class traditionalists of every faith and variety. At the head of the GOP today are wealthy corporate-backed globalists, whose policies primarily revolve around growing rich on the economies of the world. These are a very small minority of the GOP, yet they command most of of the power. Far outnumbering these wealthy interests is middle America, who still hold it a virtue to place “America First” and deal with the rest of the world accordingly.

I, like many others who called themselves republican during the Regan years, became disillusioned with the GOP once we sensed the change of guard under H. W. Bush. We weren't alone – nearly 1/3 of the country at one time backed Ross Perot's Reform ticket during the 1992 presidential election. That's a lot of republicans who were ready to bolt back then, and I trust these same folks are waiting for another opportunity to do so. Obviously, the energy needed to form a third party has not yet emerged from the inertia of the past, but the conditions of the past few years could propel this change into being.

Like many other GOP expatriates, I flirted with libertarianism, but failed to find true representation in it. What was left for us? The bicameral system of liberal vs. conservative is a discredited sham, and should be understood by all citizens to be so. It is a “red vs. blue” machine, a treadmill for the masses to move; a system operated by powerful groups that grow stronger and stronger behinds the scenes of the charade. The message so far to the people by our corporate media as been, as poor Dorothy came to hear in the palace of the Great Oz: “Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!” Wake up middle class America, we cannot afford to ignore these things anymore!

Neoconservatism in practice is rooted in the notion that our national policies should be whatever is advantageous for large corporations and the generation of wealth, and applies our might and influence in the world for such gain. Has any republican asked themselves why this administration demands that we do business with China? No one is foolish enough to think China a friend of the American people. Does anyone really think it wise to supply and enrich an antagonistic, tyrannical slave-state who has nuclear weapons pointed in our direction? I cannot understand how the average GOP voter overcomes this astonishing hypocrisy within their own leadership. If you look behind economic policies of this neocon administration, you can see the shadows of such groups as the CFR and the Trilateral commission, who advocated a “new world order” long before Bush Sr. publicly spoke of such a thing. It is the suspicious international aims of these kinds of groups that helped drain the industrial lifeblood of America. In fact, the loss has already happened: Industrial jobs have collapsed from 20% of the economy in 1980 to only about 14% today. In 1960, industrial work was around 40% of the entire economy! This uncontrolled bleeding was hurried along by the squeezing of those whose mantra was “interdependence of nations”, “collective understanding,” and “free trade” - which in practice is for the monopoly of a few to overstep the oversight and power of freely elected national governments. Those are the true fathers of the neoconservative movement, men who loved a fantasy of global economic empire for a few corrupt, unapproachable dynasties more than the liberty of their own people.

Americans, globalists are not your friends. Internationalism is not the policy of those friendly to the liberty and industry of this nation, nor was it ever. These aims serve the few, at the great expense of the many, and have shown themselves willing to lie, steal, and kill to achieve their aims. These men have shown all through the 20th century and now into the 21st that they will not stop until our nation is under the power of international concerns, and our middle class brought down penniless into serfdom, as our ancestors in Europe were. So much for our renegade ancestors throwing off the murderous tyranny of those who would rule our destinies on this continent – their modern day equivalents seek a whole new level of power over us, and desire to remove our blood-won birthright from us all. True conservatism is the opposite of neoconservatism; just as true patriotism is the opposite of the “patriot act and all of the nightmarish specters of a totalitarian police state contained in it.

No conservative American ever desired a world government, economic or otherwise. It is something that has always caused conservatives to recoil, because they know inwardly that it is bad for this country. I, like all middle Americans prefer to keep our factories and jobs in America, but neocon leadership has greased the skids for sending them to India, China, or whomever else can offer a slave-wage advantage. How is it possible that middle America, the core of the GOP, continue to support those who allow (openly and without any shame whatsoever!) the shutdown of whole industries; firing tens, even hundreds of thousands of Americans – only to help these very same companies open up new factories overseas, and then sell those shoddy products back to the same families they robbed the jobs from in the first place? Not to mention the self-destructive immigration policies of the neocons – does anyone really buy the line that these people are taking jobs that Americans aren't willing to take? Those jobs should first go to Americans, and our national boarder was drawn for that very reason long ago! This is our land, and this is our bounty. At the rate we are losing our industries to the greed of these globalist traitors, it won't be long before Americans are again clamoring for any work like our grandfathers did in the 1930's. It is time to realize that the neoconservative movement is bad for republicans, bad for the economy, and will have dire consequences for America as a whole.

Certainly it is obvious to even those who believe Fox News Corp is a “fair and balanced” view of the world that a nation who loses industry after industry to third world countries is headed for trouble. It should infuriate the true core of the GOP that it is their own leadership that has paved the way for this to occur! Yet why is it that these same patriotic, nationalistic people continue to ignore the behavior of their new leadership?

Naturally, globalism and its policies are incompatible with conservative nationalism, which is the traditional platform of the GOP. Nationalism directs us to protect our industries, keep Americans employed in American factories, guard our boarders and lessen our involvement in other nations, and to check the tendency of wealthy groups and individuals to overstep the bounds of national governments and form powerful unions of their own advantage. Those who vote the GOP ticket need to understand the difference that has arisen between their leadership, and themselves. They are, if anything, adversaries of what their own people have always stood for.

Realizing this, it becomes easy to see a fault line developing in the GOP, one threatening to rupture at any time. Conservatives everywhere are beginning to understand how closely the Bush administration has brought us to a police state, in a time when there is no real danger the land and liberty of the United States. Buildings can be rebuilt, even capitals if need be; governments can be selected again and the business of the government will continue. No terrorist, no matter how violent and ingenious would ever be able to “take America down.” But once our liberty is foolishly traded away for a false security, it will never come back.

No true republican can ever say they were delighted in discovering the nation was likely deceived into going to war. This has led to a rapid decline of the approval of G. W. Bush and company (37% as of Nov. '05, and still heading due south), forcing the GOP to confront the citizens' just indignation at necon chicanery and its bloody legacy.

There are clearly two distinct entities within the GOP today, that of the neocons, and that of the conservative nationalists. These two entities cannot logically exist in the same party for long – it's like a mixture of oil and water and will separate on its own once the bottle stops shaking. So what is constantly shaking the bottle into confusion? Entities such as Fox News Corp, Rush Limbaugh, and other mass media outlets are how this is done. In frightening lockstep with one another, the major media players of the western world have all seemingly agreed to support the neocons, no matter how false or bloody their polices become. It is difficult to find anyone willing to challenge the policies of this administration in the mainstream media. Events and news all seem to be following the same script handed down from on high, all of it promoting the dastardly policies of men and women who desire to change the order of the world. Their “new order” would remove the power of destiny from the people of all free nations, and lock it away into hidden, unelectable, and unaccountable power combinations of industry and finance. These people have been trying to fool all of the people all of the time, and of course, this cannot be done for long.

Neoconservatism is a parasite that latched onto the Republican party, grew inwardly, and came to lodge itself at its head. Neocons attempted to force the GOP power base into doing its bidding, so long as the GOP voters are willing to accept their manipulations. How often do you hear the neocons in the Bush administration say: We had a clear mandate from the people to invade Iraq. . .or pass the patriot act. . .or whatever demonic villainy has gone on in the filthy god-forsaken pits of torture and abuse that “enemy combatants” have disappeared into for YEARS. It is inevitable that this ruse fall apart, and with it may come a major fracture in the republican party. It is an earthquake that may change the face of the American political landscape forever, and allow us to sweep away these years of neocon corruption and terror that has stained our name across the whole world.

How much more blood are the American people willing to shed to enforce the policies of their “new world order?” How many more jobs will we sacrifice to the new economic feudalism of the elite few? I hope the time has come for a choice, a real choice, and for the voice of the true America to be heard once again.
