I am a Conservative. Hear Me Roar!
Posted on 12/17/2003 9:21:49 PM PST by ConservativeMan55
I consider myself part of the base of the Republican party. I think everyone should own a gun. I think abortion should be outlawed, but I understand that at this point in time it will be difficult to accomplish. I think taxes should be cut, terrorists should be killed, and laws should be enforced. Government is a neccessary evil that we must deal with. It isn't my savior, and I shouldn't have to pay for it to be anyone else's either.
Cut as much government spending as possible and force each person to be responsible for themselves. Once people realize its either do or die they will start to participate in this free country. By free I don't mean free ride. You don't have to participate, but if you choose not to contribute to the economy, be prepared to be poor. I love this country, and it doesn't need to be changed. If you don't like it, then leave it.
If you have a kid you better be prepared to take care of it. It shouldn't be the rest of society's problem. It doesn't take a village. It takes a parent who gives a damn. Once you are older you should be prepared to not only raise your kids, but take care of your parents when they get older. The government should focus on delivering the mail, securing the borders, and staying out of my life. Everyone should not only be armed because of criminals, but this also prevents too much government intervention. Thats a big part of why we have the Second Amendment in the first place.
I'm tired of not being 'pandered' to. My vote should not be considered automatic by my elected officials. Even though I am part of this base I should still demand government action in my best interests. Why is it ok for Howard Dean to make up the outrageous mental institution conspiracy theories in order to rally his base, but we can't even run an ad without being called "over the edge."
If you are an elected official and you do something stupid, be prepared to be called on it. Don't try to camoflauge common sense with patriotism. I am not fooled. Campaign Finance Reform was the worst thing that we could have let happen. In effect our leaders are telling us to shut up. Government in itself is a problem. Its spinning out of control right now. Society will fall when elected officials such as Gray Davis, try to be everything to everyone.
When he ran out of people to pander to in California, he granted drivers licenses to illegal aliens so that they could vote. California failed because the so called leaders attempted to stay in power by bribing special interest groups. You see this same problem on a smaller scale all around the country in each state. The more liberalism that is inserted, the more misery and failure you see.
Schools don't need any more money. We are spending more money now on public schools than we have ever spent before, and we are educating our kids less than we ever have before.
As much as I seem to want, its mostly what I don't want that I have listed. I am very optimistic about the future of this country. I see an oppurtunity right now to crush the liberals. I see an oppurtunity to vote each and every one of them out of office. Almost every American lives their life as a Conservative. If more people were informed, then more Conservatives would be voted into office. I approach each day with a smile because I know that the only difference between a happy person and an angry person is that the angry person is angry. Everybody has problems. Its how we deal with those problems that shapes our life.
I detest vote drives. Instead, we should have information awareness drives. You shouldn't vote merely for the symbolism of voting. You should vote because you've got an issue in mind.
It won't be easy. Foreign countries are now getting in on the action, supporting Howard Dean with campaign cash. Combine that with voter fraud and his ability to lie and you have an evil entity that must be taken care of.
When you see evil you must confront it. You must defeat it. You can't get along with evil. You must erase as much of it as possible.

No rant at all, but a fine discription of who you are and how you feel about issues that matter to you.
Sounds a lot like me, but I'm not that good with words...
Thanks for posting this, and feel free to rant all you want, you have a talent for it!!

When you see evil you must confront it. The most evil agency on earth is right here in the good ole U.S.A. They have no rules, they have no one to oversee them, they are not bound by the same laws as we are, they run roughshod over those that they know have no defense. I could go on and on about this no good sorry sack of dog shit agency but I think you get my drift.
Once we confont THAT evil we will have taken our country back. Until then we are sheeple being lead to slaughter.

Combine that with voter fraud and his ability to lie and you have an evil entity that must be taken care of. that bears repeating and publicising. It has a democrat party tradition to take money for the foreign enemies of the USA.

Without the press (FR), you have three destinies in making a difference:
1. Jail: Impotent, neutralized, victimized...
2. Discredited: Embarassment, no credibility...
3. Dead: People will remember about you what other people say.
Support FR, and USE IT.

It may be trite, but the only way is one vote at a time.
The left is an excersise in stupidity. Did you know the whale from "free willy" died? There was the tiniest news story. This was an evironwacko fiasco. But the evil left only wants to remember the feel good. Not the rational thougt. They burried him in secret. Why because they can't admit they were wrong as on all leftist stands.
Dr Dean, is keying into the feeeeelings of the dying democrat party. They are ANGRY they are dying. It is part of the morning process in any death. (I forget the steps of mourning)
The only way to shift the debate further into the conservative camp is the let the democrat party die off. That will open the door for real debates on real issues.
To: longtermmemmory
I'm not sure about letting them die off. I'm pretty sure that we had a hand in their putting them in their current state.
It is true that I give them credit for their failure, but once they fail it is up to us to shine the light for everyone to see.

"It was incoherant, but those are the best kind."
INCOHERENT?????
It was the most coherent, compelling, concise, and other flattering words that start with "C" things I've read in a while.
This was my favorite part: "The government should focus on delivering the mail, securing the borders, and staying out of my life."
My pet peeve: I don't want the Federal Gov't worrying if third graders ate lunch.
RANT ON!

Hey cyborg I noticed that you watched the Diane Sawyer interview with President Bush.
Compare that interview with the one Diane did with Oprah tonight. Oprah was like a long lost friend to Diane.

I didn't get to see it. How interesting since I spent the evening discussing South Africa with my boyfriend who is from there. Of course they seem like sisters separated at birth. They're cut from the same cloth. I can't stand Diane Sawyer. I love Oprah even when she acts like a liberal dweeb.

To: ConservativeMan55
If only we could figure out how to farm whales. It would save them, or as they say if you want to save a species "eat it for food".
To: Conservababe
I might just send it to them. It might be a little long, but they might print it as an editorial.

Fishing for whales and farming whales! LOL! Talk about sending the left into a tizzy!
They would be more upset about that, than they would about my future plans to invent a gasoline powered rifle which includes legislation that everyone carry one.
