When did Conservatives become evil in America?

It is well known that Conservatives care little about the lives and fates of others, that they sponsor wars, torture and intolerance, but when did they actually slide into the camp of evil?

    Since about 1650, when they started their slave plantations in the North American Colonies.

    The Conservatives from the last century was never evil. The GOP has been taken over by extremist. Over the years, these extremist tried to survive but lost all the respect with the whole country. With organizations like the KKK and it's down fall, these extremist had to move to something else. This forced them to create The Tea Bagging Party.

    They haven't.

    It is not well-known.

    They do care, in different ways that Democrats like myself.

    They do not sponsor wars, torture, or intolerance, but some express a desire for those things when necessary, as some wars are, some torture may be, and being tolerant of everything is to be mindless.

    Your political bigotry is blinding you and does not represent Democrats as a whole, and certainly not me.

    Don't waste our time with this garbage, please.

    When did liberals become such blatant thieves in America?

    It is well known that liberals care little about working for themselves. They sponsor politicians who legislate against those of us who actually PAY federal taxes by making us pay even MORE; are also intolerant of others who don't absolutely agree with everything they say, want and do.

    JFK famously said "ask not what your country can do for you, but what YOU can do for your country." So when did liberals turn into such government dependent rats?

    To those who are left of center, it's when we started promoting the writings of the United States Constitution which all members of Congress take an oath to uphold when they're sworn into office.

    torture is kind of the line I think...

    can you think of other "nice" groups that promoted torture?

    torture is one of those things that's not usually debated because it's pretty obvious it's bad...

    somehow, the cons got on the wrong end of that one and they didn't give up on it... lol

    About the same time liberals became evil.

    As far as I am concerned both became annoying about 15 years ago.

    conservatives have always been that way. but now that we're more connected and informed, it requires more and more cognitive dissonance to ignore the rest of the world.
