    About the Author

    FORWARD

    For some years now I have felt the need for clarification of some of the misleading words and phrases used by liberal politicians and by the mainstream media that pimps for them. Since the purpose of their verbal dissembling is obviously voter deception, it would seem to be incumbent on a free society to be aware of the actual meanings of these terms that are being purposely used to suppress the truth and promote misinformation.

    Most of us are all too familiar with the more common verbal subterfuges used by politicians, such as point with pride (which means, I had nothing to do with it but I’m taking credit for it), or view with alarm (which means, I caused it but I’m blaming somebody else for it). But there are a host of other, more subtle, words and phrases with which we are assaulted daily that are used to mean something the users don’t want us to know they mean. For example: social justice is a euphemism for redistribution of wealth, but redistribution of wealth, of course, is a euphemism for buying votes with taxpayers’ money. Unless we become aware of the underlying meanings of such deliberately deceptive expressions, we run the risk of falling prey to the left’s wholesale and premeditated brain washing.

    But how do we ferret out such deceptive verbiage? Clearly what is needed is a lexicon of liberal dissimulations, so that when you see or hear the word inequality, for example, you will immediately know that it means the industrious and intelligent people are responsible for the plight of the indolent and ignorant. With that in mind, I have prepared the following dictionary, delineating most of the covert expressions commonly encountered. I have further included terms which, while some are neologisms, will assist in the recognition and interpretation of pernicious propaganda. It’s easier, for example, to identify a statement as an algoreism if one has a name for it. Neologisms are designated by the notation (N) following the part of speech.

    But the Conservative Dictionary is intended to do more than translate political disinformation. The author has attempted to make it an historical fact book as well, by including biographies of politically significant people along with citations of landmark legislations over the last century and analyses of government regulatory agencies.

    Appendices included at the end of the dictionary provide pertinent quotations, the texts of significant American documents, and statistical data that are useful for your personal enlightenment as well as in deflecting the verbal assaults of politicians and pundits who blithely assume (and fervently hope) that you are ignorant of such things. Thus this book offers not only a liberal lexicon, but a valuable educational resource and aready.reference of historical fact

    CAUTION

    This book contains facts, logic, and common sense, which may cause severe cognitive dissonance in liberals. Reader discretion is advised.

    DICTIONARY

    A

    ACLU The initials of the American Civil Liberties Union (aka: American Communists and Liberals Union), a privately funded organization formed in January 1920 by Roger Baldwin (1884-1981), to replace the National Civil Liberties Bureau, founded by Baldwin and Crystal Eastman in 1917 for the purpose of championing freedom of speech, which was severely curtailed by the Woodrow Wilson administration. Baldwin launched the ACLU as an organization instrumental to the social ownership of property, abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. (Note: by those who produce wealth Mr. Baldwin meant the Industriatal Workers of the World, an organization of which he was a member. He obviously had no clue as to who actually produces wealth.) The ACLU is organized as a board of directors (currently consisting of 80 members) headed by an executive director of the board. It currently has 53 local chapters, and 500,000 members. In its early years, the ACLU continued the free speech crusade of its predecessor the National Civil Liberties Bureau, sending ACLU national committee member Clarence Darrow to Dayton Tennessee in 1925 to defend John Scopes, defending Benjamin Gitlow who was arrested in New York for distributing communist literature, defending H.L Menkin in 1926 when he was arrested for distributing his Mercury Magazine in Boston, winning a reversal of a court ruling against Mary Ware Dennett for distributing sex education literature in 1928, reversing a Customs Department ban against James Joyce’s Ulyses in 1933, and successfully defending all the way to the Supreme Court Yetta Sromberg’s right to teach her summer camp children to salute the communist flag in 1931. In the 1930s, Baldwin expanded the ACLUs mission to include fighting censorship in the arts, improving the lot of American Indians, and support of labor unions. The ACLU allied itself with the Popular Front of the American Communist Party in the late 1930s, but under pressure from the House Un-American Activities Committee, purged itself of Communist membership in 1940. However, the 1940 resolution was rescinded in 1968, and there are currently no restrictions against Communist membership. Since Baldwin’s replacement as executive director in 1950, the ACLU has focused on using the courts to invent rights that have never existed in the Constitution, such as the abolition of school prayer and other activities that violate the non-existent separation of church and state, defending the rights of Viet Nam War protestors in the 1960s, establishing rights for prisoners and homosexuals, defending the right to distribute child pornography and the right to spam , and championing the right of Westboro Baptist Church to picket US veteran’s funerals with such signs as Thank God for dead soldiers.

    ADL The initials of the Anti-Defamarion League, an organization founded in 1913 by B'nai B'rith, a Jewish service organization, and funded entirely by donations. The ADL is committed to eradicating not only anti-Semitism, but racism and discrimination against all other religions, including Islam. (The word adl in Arabic means justice.) The ADL is noted for its radically inaccurate interpretation of the First Article of the Bill of Rights, railing against the teaching of creationism in school science classes, Federal or State government sponsored prayer events, and the display of the so-called ten commandments (Exodus 20 cites only nine) in public buildings. Curiously, the same organization is radically opposed to the rights granted American citizens by the Second Article of the Bill of Rights, bringing it into frequent conflict with the JPFO, Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership.

    affirmative action A term first used by President John F. Kennedy in Executive Order 10925 in March 1961 in an attempt to place the onus of responsibility for erasing racial and religious discrimination in the United States on government contractors. In 1968 gender equality was added to the list of affirmative action objectives. Beyond being a requirement for garnering government contracts, affirmative action has never been enacted into law. In fact, several States such as California, Michigan, Nebraska, and Washington have outlawed it within their borders. Liberals, however, continue to loudly proclaim it to be the law of the land in everything from college admissions to the selection of talk show guests. The results of affirmative action can best be illustrated by taking a good look at the 44th President of the United States.

    African American A synonym for Negro, a member of the only American group that insists on prefacing their nationality with a disclaimer.

    Agenda 21 A Malthusian inspired World Socialist program developed by the UN Conference on Environment and Development and presented at the UN conference in Rio de Janeiro in 1992. Agenda 21 is a 300 page document divided into four sections. Section I, Social and Economic Dimensions, proposes forced redistribution of wealth from industrial countries to undeveloped countries, enforced population control, control of goods and services available for consumption, and control of land usage. Section II, Conservation and Management of Resources for Development, proposes forced urbanization and restriction of private access to motor vehicles; international control of all farming and domestic oil, natural gas, coal, and lumber production; international specification and management of pollution and of fragile environments; and international management of biotechnology. Section III, Strengthening the Role of Major Groups, is basically a blueprint for enforcing equality through affirmative action and suppression of individual achievement to produce an egalitarian world with no achievers and no losers. Section IV, Means of Implementation, proposes the insidious infiltration of educational institutions, the surreptitious organization of local and state governments (see ICLEI), manipulation of international institutions, and lobbying and bribing national legislatures.

    al-gore’-ism n (N) A fabrication intended to scare people into doing something illogical, usually advanced for political purposes or to gain an economic advantage. (From the global warming hoax fostered by former US Vice President Al Gore.)

    Alinsky, Saul bio Saul Alinsky (1909-1972) has been called the father of community organizing. Alinski is best known for his 1971 book Rules for Radicals, which begins: What follows is for those who want to change the world from what it is to what they believe it should be. Alinsky further observes, The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away. In Rules for Radicals, Alinsky offered the following advice on ethics: In war, the end justifies almost any means, Success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics, and You do what you can with what you have and clothe it in moral garments. On the means of inciting civil unrest, he advised: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it, Keep the pressure on with different tactics and actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose, Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon, and, perhaps most telling, The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Alinsky was well aware of the need to deprogram people from civil obedience before they could be induced to embrace civil disobedience. The first step in community organization, he said, is community disorganization. Although Alinsky was neither a Socialist nor a unionist, his methods of inciting civil unrest have been taught and applied by both Socialists and labor unions, as swell as by campus radicals and, perhaps most notably, by Democratic politicians.

    alternative medicine The use of manufactured pharmaceuticals instead of natural remedies in the treatment of diseases. The beginning of alternative medicine was the discovery by chemists at Bayer AG in 1897 of an acid ester of acetyl-salicylic acid (the active pain-relieving ingredient in willow bark) that was stable over long periods of time. The new compound was named aspirin, and was an immediate economic success. Since then, the progress of medical treatment has been toward artificially produced pharmaceuticals as an alternative to the natural remedies that have been applied since before Hippocrates.

    A-mer’-i-ca n To a liberal, an evil empire that insists on imposing freedom on its own citizens as well as trying to impose it on the citizens of other countries. See also USA The American people 1. A liberal phrase meaning an entity similar to mushrooms that must be kept in the dark and fed manure. 2. A phrase frequently used by Democratic Party politicians to mean a group of cretins so stupid that the government has to make all their decisions for them and look after their livelihood.

    ar-is-toc’-ra-cy n 1. The class that ruled Europe from the rise of the Greek city states to the end of the First World War. The aristocracy was a parasitic class, entitled by the inheritance of land to live off the peasants and to direct the fortunes of their countries and of their countrymen. The aristocracy began to wither when manufactured goods replaced land as wealth in the 1800s, and it died in the violent social revolution of the Great War, although vestiges of it can still be found in backward corners of the world such as Washington DC. 2. What liberal Democrats imagine themselves to be.

    aut-o-ma’-tion n The use of computers, developed in the latter half of the twentieth century, to replace the mentation of humans as a requisite to the operation of machines. Automation has been called the second industrial revolution, since it
