LONG TERM MORALITY??? YOU LIBERALS ARE THE CHILD KILLERS!!! Yeah, let's make a cleaner, better future for the generation that won't be there! Hell, I say we have it all! Let's squander resources, pollute, execute and abort.
Sorry Akula, you are a drone. As much as you like to point your finger and say that we are, you have fallen into the liberal dogma web. I tell you what, let's set up a nice liberal government (AKA: political socialism and communism). The only catch is, I get to be the one in charge. I dictate what is good for the masses. I am king. Does that sound good to you? That's what liberals expect of us.

Hi Akula,
Let me guess, you type your postings sitting there smoking a pipe, with a tweed jacket and its leather elbow patches.

So in a sentence or two, what exactly is conservatism to you? How do you define it?

How do you define liberalism?

>>The ideology of conservatism appeals to those who think in short term greed, as opposed to long term morality.<<

Let's throw away the terms "liberal" and "conservative" and find another one - "statist" - and then say, "a person can only display 2 of the following 3 characteristics: honesty, intelligence, statist."

Telll me, of the 3 characteristics, intelligence, honesty, statism.... which 2 do you embrace?

FWIW
Andy

Conservatism is not an ideology. Ideology supplants religion. Here are ten basic conservative tenets:

As I said, the ill- informed suppose that conservatism means hanging onto privilege, when, in fact, it means a concern with the moral foundations of society.....
