To see a prime example of the disinformation blame game utilized by the liberal left, we have to look no further than our western shore. As many of you might know, there was a major gas tax increase in California which, to be charitable, has rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. But we are not here to condemn the gas tax (which would be very, very easy) but to point out the corruption of the political process in good, ole’ Cali.

Here is the latest comment from the “liberal parading as a fiscal hawk” Jerry Brown regarding the gas tax: “The Republicans in Sacramento want to fix our roads,  they expect the tooth fairy to pay the $5 Billion every year.”

Well, leftist Brown forgot to mention one very important point when discussing the views of the Republican Party in California – CALIFORNIA ALREADY TAKES IN $8 BILLION A YEAR FROM CURRENT GAS TAXES!

Yes, that’s right, California takes in over $8 Billion a year from existing gas taxes – which are corruptly spent on other demanding projects like the “spiraling out of control” choo-choo train Jerry is trying to build from San Francisco to Los Angeles.

Let’s put this in terms that even liberals can understand. Your son or daughter wants to go out on a Friday night. You give them $20 for gas as the car is empty. At the end of the month, you get your credit card statement and, whoa and behold, there is a charge on that very night for gasoline. The kids pocketed the cash and stuck you with an extra bill!

Your response would be to confront the kids and ask them to explain.

Jerry Brown would tell you to shut up and pay the bill.

That, folks, is the world of LIBERALISM!

TheConservativeNextDoor was started to give the “forgotten man” a voice in regards to today’s media deluge of liberal cross-speak. While we watch and see mis-truths, misrepresentations and outright lies being promulgated on cable and network outlets, the voice of the every day TAXPAYER and family man next door is NEVER represented.

How many cable outlets interview people like your neighbor? The answer is ZERO and, thus, the establishment of this web page.

I am not a writer….nor have I ever had anything published (other than “Letters to the Editor” in a few newspapers)…..I am a marketing professional in a non-journalism industry. I am from the Midwest and have lived all over this great land of ours – from “sea to shining sea” – and interacted with a diverse group of Americans….including hard-working farmers to Wall Street traders to California liberals. I’ve seen them all – and heard them all – and have developed my own opinions as to their thought processes. Those opinions will be shared here.

As the title indicates, I am a CONSERVATIVE! I believe in hard-work, self-reliance, accountability and being charitable. I DO NOT believe that the U.S. Government is my “keeper” nor is the government responsible for taking care of my needs….or any other American’s needs. “Entitlement Programs” are NOT benefits bestowed upon Americans by right of birth, they are CHARITY doled out by a charitable nation – nothing more, nothing less.

So off we go  on our journey to clarify the positions of those to whom we have invested the power to govern our lives……..and this will be a no-holds-barred view of the political arena that will dispense with the pieties demanded by the liberal left as we rely on one sound axiom from the past: “IF YOU CAN’T STAND THE HEAT, STAY OUT OF THE KITCHEN!”
