Conservatives vs. Liberals - lokizilla - 09-08-2008
hotzester Wrote:I'm more conservative than liberal, so I do classify myself as a Conservative. I've been registered as a Democrat, and I've been registered as a Republican.
Unfortunately, there's not really a party that I fall completely in line with.
I:
~Rarely curse
~Am pro-life
~Am a Christian
~Have no problem with gay people, they can do what they want, I just don't think they need to be "married". I'm even in favor of civil unions, just don't call it marriage.
~Am a proud supporter of the 2nd Amendment
~Am pro-military
~Support President Bush and my brothers/sisters in their current missions.
~Believe marijuana should be legalized, because prohibition has NEVER worked (not a very conservative position at all, is it?)
~Believe in a smaller government, with lower taxes for ALL Americans
~Am horrified at the thought of socialized healthcare
~Am in favor of zero tolerance when it comes to illegal immigration. If you want to come here, awesome. But do it illegally or we're kicking you out and you'll NEVER make it here again.
I agree with you on everything but the drug thing. Everyone at work was surprised when they found out that I was conservative.....They thought I was so liberal. I was shocked, my husband, and close friends said, "They don't know you very well."

On these points it seems we are in total agreement.

Quote:That still leaves those who just think government screws everything up, and don't want it given any more responsibility or influence over their lives. I can sure understand the sentiment. But is the solution to forever prohibit government from attempting to get better? I'd like to know how many who oppose more "government involvement" home-school their children, take their own garbage to the dump, keep their own reservoirs functioning and safe, repair their own streets, build and operate their own public transportation (or refuse to use it, wherever they go), or VOLUNTARILY OPT OUT OF MEDICARE WHEN THEY REACH 65!!, and send their unemployment and social security checks back out of principled opposition? And I'm not talking about foregoing one or two, folks. You're either on the grid, or you're off. There's no in-between.

I agree with this completely. So shut up.
