It's not just conservitism they want to destroy. They've already taken out the democratic party. They still call themselves democrats, but they're really socialist liberals. Truman was a real democrat, look what he did to end wars. An "old fashion" democrat was in today's terms a Moderate Republican (i.e. Rudy Guliani). And a Republican was someone who was morally and fiscally conservative, but could care less about social issues (i.e. Ronald Regan).
Listen to John Lennon's song Imagine some time, or read the lyrics and you'll hear the theme of the democratic party. Pure Socialism.

Well that's not at all clear (one-party) since it is nicely balanced in Congress and the Conservatives have been trying to destroy the Libs as well as our freedom (Patriot Act), our economy (un-conservative spending), and our country by riding rough shod over Congress for the last 6 years. We moderates didn't find the last six years boring - more like frightening.

Liberals aren't doing that. Rove wanted a one party system and almost all the top Republicans went along with it. They cheated, lied, stole, and did anything they could and now many of them are getting convicted of it.
Also, the right wing extremism they rammed down our throats is unreasonable and doesn't work so they also screwed up the Iraq War and the economy and environment. Everything they said about Iraq, global warming, the economy and nearly every topic is either wrong or a total lie.
Most Americans do not like most of what the conservatives are doing and so the right wing extreme and the neocons are destroying their own movement. Liberals are just standing back and watching the total meltdown.

Karl Rove is on record as aspiring to a coast-to-coast one-party Republican America. Between 2002 and 2006 we HAD a one-party Republican Federal government.
You should become acquainted with a little something I like to call FACTS.

Why must you lie? I am liberal and I think we need a third party as the two we have are not very effective. Your question is weak and your logic is childish, but I suspect you are very easily convinced of whatever propaganda Fox News, Rush, Coulter and the rest of them are spewing.
Dare to think for yourself and you might actually see how ridiculous statements like the one you made are.

Simple, because Liberals want to destroy America from the inside
Their weapon of choice in this war against America... POLITICAL CORRECTNESS
It is dragging our society down and stifling honest and thought provoking discussion and debate, because some subjects aren’t “politically correct" to talk about. It is even taking over the military and is hampering our ability to conduct operations.
This is the way I see it.
The problem with America is we try to be too fair, and the result is chaos.
The biggest societal mistake America commits is trying to make everything perfect. Every miniscule offense, whether real or imagined, has to be "corrected". Hence, people develop a bizarre sense of absolute entitlement.
Filmmaker Michael Moore asks people throughout his movie on the Columbine massacre why America had so much violent crime, often involving guns. Here is the answer he has been looking for: the unrealistic sense of absolute entitlement driven into the minds of Americans.
Only in America does one person have the "right" to be offended by something that neither concerns nor even affects him. In Florida, ONE Muslim complained about a nativity scene in a library, so everyone had to be deprived of seeing a beautiful, traditional Christmas display because of one silly, petulant whiner. In another case, a person complained about a nativity scene, even though they also had a Jewish Menorah and Muslim religious symbols on display for people to enjoy.
People have gotten so crazy about their "inviolate rights" that when something relatively insignificant happens, they react by shooting someone.
The ACLU does not understand one simple concept: a society cannot function when everyone has the right to disrupt absolutely anything they don't agree with. Imagine if you had a big dinner party at your home, and "Sally" complains about all the dishes containing meat, because she is a vegetarian.
"Bill" objects to the gold-rimmed wine glasses because gold is sometimes mined by underpaid workers in third world countries.
"Janice" complains that the dinner plates were manufactured by a non eco-friendly company, and demands that her host destroy all the offensive china immediately.
"Ahmed" bitterly denounces his hostess because she is serving wine, which violates the precepts held dear in the Koran. Also, this infidel hostess should be covered from head to toe in a burka, because her exposed calves are an abomination to god.
I could go on and on, but you get the idea. Just like this dinner party could not even be held, a society cannot function when the legitimacy of absolutely everything is constantly challenged.
Enough of this chaos!
Last Christmas down in Florida, a library had a number of holiday and Christmas displays, including a Christian nativity scene, some Jewish holiday display, and another for Muslims. One...... yes, ONE Muslim complained that there was a (gasp!) Christian display on public property, and demanded that it be removed.
Therefore, hundreds of people were denied seeing a beautiful, traditional Christmas display because of one whiny Muslim.
(BTW: they left the other religious displays intact. See a bit of bias here?)
Maybe we should just have a "National Day of Outrage", one day a year when all these petulant, whiny miscreants can vent their outrage at every little thing...
Then the rest of the 364 days of the year they can just
Suck it up and drive on!
