Whatever else we might say, your position on the Nicaragua canal is well nigh irresponsible. What next, Free Silver?

Thanks for checking my profile page. I hope you learned something, such as that the Republican Party was in 1892, and still is supposed to be, pro-American and anti- Free Traitor.

[meadsjn]

As for the “Nicaragua canal”, it served the USA well almost a century, through two world wars many years of peacetime shipping, until the commie Carter gave it away for nothing.

My guess is and was, that you fall into secular or at least one of the not very religious categories, therefore your group is made up mostly of liberals, unlike the social conservatives. It is clear that you feel uncomfortable with conservatives even though you desire to support their economics, it must be difficult for you to have to affiliate with a political group that you despise.

[meadsjn]

My guess is and was, that you ...

Well you guess wrong again. It's very leftist and communist of you to try to lump individuals into your narrow, predefined "groups".

[meadsjn]

What’s next? Do you have a train waiting to take those “other” groups of your imagination to the gulags or concentration camps?

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Hey, you don’t like Southerners, I do.

You know, Southerners should be highly offended that you're assuming they're all on welfare, are shiftless, have illegitimate babies, and vote Democrat. I can't describe how disgustingly bigoted against Southerners you're turning out to be, what with your horrible assumptions about them.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

Don’t worry, ansel’s going all William Jennings Bryant on me, too. I think he wants to crucify me on a cross of gold.

[ansel12]

LOL, so you don’t exist, because if you exist, then you fit one of those categories and I think that we all know that it is a category made up overwhelmingly of liberals.

I seriously doubt that you fit into one of the categories that is majority conservative.

[ansel12]

This really is a revealing look at you, it must be difficult for you to have to live in the south.

[meadsjn]

... because if you exist, then you fit one of those categories ...

Yours is the classic mindset of collectivist tyrannical governments demonstrated over the past century and more, to the tune of more than a hundred million murders.

[Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus]

is really is a revealing look at you, it must be difficult for you to have to live in the south.

What are you talking about? You're the one who's dissing Southerners and assuming that they're all a bunch of welfare addicts and bastardists.

The South's okay, but I have to say, it ain't the Midwest.

[ansel12]

The South's okay, but I have to say, it ain't the Midwest.

Thank you, I got it right.

[Theodore R.]

Daniels, now I imagine Lugar told him to say all of that.

[Theodore R.]

No, didn’t Goldwater and Howard Baker compete over who cast the tie-breaking vote for “giving away” the canal?

[ansel12]

You don't like conservatives, yet you are here on a conservative site, it seems that torn between your dislike for us yet your liking our economics, that you force yourself to vote with us, the important thing for you to remember, is that social conservatives are the heart and the voting base of conservatism, not anti-social conservatives.

I think that we can assume that you are in one of the categories that is made up mostly of liberals, I'm starting to wonder who you voted for in 2000.

The Oligarchy gets antsy when the peons and peasants start getting uppity.

The Mittster would appear to be history..he’s been unable to put the Palin’s back in Alaska....so their rolling him under the bus...

“Abortion has severe fiscal long term consequences....”

the consequence shrinking of the generations is responsible for the pressure on our politicians to open the borders.

the ramifications are manifold.

[meadsjn]

You don't like conservatives, yet you ...

You don't know jacksh*t about what I like or don't like, or the same about any other person here.

I don't like you or your behaviors, and hope everyone reading recognizes your leftist tactics. I don't expect you to recognize it or to change. You're just a bigot -- look it up. Words mean things, and mostly not what you imagine.

You are a bigoted POS, determined to employ your commie, NAZI methods to pigeon-hole individuals into your imaginary "groups" and "categories". That is not a conservative trait.

[ansel12]

You got on this thread and started lying about social conservatives, it is clear who you don't like.

Anybody dishonest enough to say this.
"Regardless, the fact is that either Social Conservatives are irrelevant in national elections, or more than half of them voted for Obama in 2008. Most of the same Social Conservative idiots that supported Huckabee also previously supported Bill Clinton, and about asmany of them supported Algore in 2000 as supported GWB.

Is someone with a deep hatred and bigotry towards the conservative voters and people of faith that make up the vast majority of that voting block.

[meadsjn]

That's not hatred and bigotry; that's just fact. People who claim to be "social conservatives" are just as likely to vote for Democrats as for Republicans. You should go talk to some of those "social conservative" voters. I have, and I do, regularly.

Here this thread is at post #140 or so, and you still haven't articulated a single conservative principle or idea.

I believe you could, if you really, really tried. If you close your eyes and think for a few minutes, you might be able to squeeze one tiny little conservative principle or idea out of that reptilian pea-sized brain. Come on; give it a try, without any "categories", "groups", or labels. Just start with some generic concepts like "consent of the governed", life, liberty, property, individualism, etc., etc., and express just one single conservative idea. You can do it.
