I'm admittedly a social conservative - prolly the one thing that pushed me to the right more than anything else - but as a social conservative the last thing I want is the government dictating how we conduct ourselves. It kills me when social conservatives want to adopt the tactics of the left and use government to dictate how people should conduct themselves in their personal lives. IMO - the best thing government can do is NOTHING when it comes to social issues.
I'm... a conservative. Period. Social issues are good... being told how to do things is pointless -I'm Thomas Jefferson on crack, more-or-less.
I also despise leftists... they aren't pragmatic. (jmho)

The nanny state can come from the right as well as the left. We don't need either one.

Because some people here don't want to bother reading my entire posts, or would rather just flame me than engage in intelligent political debate. I just ignore the flames. They're juvenile, and remind me of junior high school.
Then WTF are ya doin here????????
Say what ya mean and get to the point quick....I don't have the attention span to listen to bullshit...
mike is convinced that the only conservatives are social conservatives.
Close.. but not quite. Anyone who supports legal abortion, gay civil unions, amnesty for illegal aliens and/or affirmative action is NOT a conservative.

Not true.
Stand up for what is right, even if you have to stand alone.
