What "conservative" used to mean
1. Fiscal responsibility
2. Limited Government
3. States rights
4. No foreign Entanglements



Now in 2012 this is what it means.

1. No gays or lesbians (when many "conservative" politicians are closet gays)
2. No abortion (even though dropping bombs on innocents is still murder)
3. War abroad to make us free


and thats about it..folks...throw in "liberal" to blame every thing that you don't agree with and there you have it...


The new conservative republicans think that the first list in liberal...

You are nutz. I am a Conservative Republican and that first list still comes first with regard to political basics.

The second list is more about individual morality and worldview. These things are still legitimate things to care about and vote about, btw.

Re: What "conservative" used to mean
Barney Frank (disgusting) hangs around with flamming gays and he's a liberal devil..

George Bush Jr. Gives Jeff Gannon a press pass when he's a known gay porn star and then GWB hugs and kisses him in front of cameras and somehow that is the mecca of conservatism

Yes, because Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow, and Ed Shultz haven't hijacked the Left and made them look like blithering idiots.

It's amazing the things you folks will accept as long as it's along YOUR party lines.

Re: What "conservative" used to mean
Yup OP I agree. The party has been fractured by the Neo-Cons, Tea Party, and Evangelical Christians. Fundamental conservative principles got tossed somewhere in the fray. It's a shame because I think what people really want is some old school, small government conservatism. Not the crazy accusations of the Tea Party, the endless unfunded wars of the Neo-Cons, or the Theocracy of the Evans.

It's not the 1800's anymore.

It's impossible to be fiscally responsible
It is impossible to scale back the Fed
States rights died with the Civil War
We may not want to entangle with the Foreigns, but they want to entangle with us.

Technology made all of this impossible.

Complete truth.

My own theory points to that those out to rob America known who has the stupidest base and the most easily manipulated.

Democratic platform has to many causes, the Republican are incredibly narrow on policy stance and ideology.

Re: What "conservative" used to mean
There is a huge difference between what the GOP elites think and what the average GOP Joe thinks. Smaller Government to the elite means less taxes for them and their corporate masters,less EPA rules so they can gain profit by poisoning the environment,less rules for their Ponzy schemes. It has nothing to do with an actual smaller Federal Government or more freedoms for the average Joe.

Very true

but I'm mad at these "republicans" (ie the masses)
who think that this mad politicians are true republicans
and they fall into the same mold just echoing the policies of globalist puppets because they are "republican" or "conservative"

bush was the biggest example of a gay liberal
