Re: "...only seems to rail against conservative messages and posters. He never has a cross word for democrats or their socialist philosophy." You are quite incorrect, Mana. But, if you like, you are free to attempt to try to establish your case. Take up my challenge to tonto! (I'll bet you are unable to guess my viewpoints correctly even 10 times out of 50 issues.) Message 21397564 Message 21397733 Or, if you haven't the patience for that... maybe you can answer this: What is a "conservative" to you? Is it a "FISCAL CONSERVATIVE", someone who believes in low, fair taxes, smaller government, balanced budgets and fiscal prudence? Is it a "RELIGIOUS CONSERVATIVE", someone who is willing to enable a bigger, more Authoritarian government so it can be called upon to enforce their religious dogma on other Americans, restricting individual freedoms in the name of particular religious precepts? Is it a "LIBERTARIAN", someone who believes that bedrock individual liberties should not be taken away by a government, and that the founding values of liberty our nation began with are the true 'conservative' beliefs that we have gotten away from? Is a "CONSERVATIVE" someone who rejects new things, new ideas... in favor of the old, the tested? Is it someone who looks to the past for inspiration, or to the future? Is a "CONSERVATIVE" someone who is in favor of foreign military 'adventures', or someone who is against them... looking to the words of our founders who spoke out against foreign entanglements?
