Dave I worded that all wrong, I can admit it.
I mean on the political spectrum. What does that mean to be a 'conservative'. Is it strictly a small government belief, where they have very little power and ask for very little of our money? To me , watching things like the patriot act and the Iraq 'war' be passed off as conservative ideals just doesn't sell me on it. They seem quite expensive and intrusive. That is just for starters.
Is it a belief in a strong military and strong family values?! What is it exactly. I have seen many posters here describe it in different ways.
In fairness to Rob, his political convictions (misguided and un-American as they are) are stronger and more honest than those of the pathological LIAR he's promising to vote for this Nov.
But don't worry, we won't hold it against you personally, Rob. We're well aware that you view your politics the way most Americans cheer on their favorite home team in the NFL or NBA -- gotta cheer on and vote for "your boy."

No worries mate. What does that mean to be a 'conservative'. Is it strictly a small government belief, where they have very little power and ask for very little of our money? I couldn’t have said it better. Stay the hell out of our lives as much as possible and quit fucking things up. I think we as Americans (contrary to popular belief by some posters) are perfectly capable of handling our own affairs without Government sticking it nose where it doesn’t belong. As for the patriot act, other than screwing up air travel I see nothing intrusive about it for the average law abiding American. As for the Iraq war I look at it from a big picture stand point.
There is no question the government screwed to pooch by not foreseeing an oil crisis. Look at the Carter administration. That should have opened our eyes but it didn’t. If there is turmoil in the ME and oil is cut off we are dead in the water. For what it’s worth I think the current administration recognized that and took appropriate action. I don’t buy the free Iraq bull, it’s all about the oil. Is it a belief in a strong military and strong family values?! What is it exactly. IMHO, strong military? Absolutely. Strong family values? I’ll admit I’m a little confused on that one. If everyone took care of their family the term family values would be moot. I will say this, socialism is not my cup of tea. To think we can all sit in a circle, sing kumbaya and live happily ever after is naïve. :toast:

Dear Concerned Citizen,
The much loved and well-respected Dr. Dobson is as shaken as everyone
else by the upcoming elections. However, a recent news article on
Yahoo! News
<http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080720/ap_on_el_pr/dobson_mccain> reported
that Dr. James Dobson is considering endorsing John McCain for President.
"I never thought I would hear myself saying this," Dobson said in a
radio broadcast to air Monday. "... While I am not endorsing Senator
John McCain, the possibility is there that I might."
We have talked to many conservative leaders over the past month
encouraging them to endorse Chuck Baldwin - the only candidate that is
ProLife; the only candidate that will secure the borders; the only
candidate that will fight for traditional marriage; the only candidate
that will appoint Constitutional judges.
Now it's YOUR turn to encourage Dr. Dobson.
He needs to hear from you - TODAY.
Please call Focus on the Family at: 719-531-3427 and remind them that
not only is Chuck Baldwin the RIGHT CHOICE - He's the ONLY CHOICE!

For example:
"Hi,
I recently heard that Dr. Dobson was considering endorsing John McCain
for president, and I just wanted to encourage Dr. Dobson that McCain is
not his only choice in this election.
There is a candidate in the race who is unashamedly Christian, 100%
Pro-Life, and who is committed to defending our families at any cost.
His name is Chuck Baldwin, and he gives me hope for the future of our
country.
Thank you for your time, and please let Dr. Dobson know that we hope he
chooses to endorse Chuck Baldwin for President."
Thank you for your help in this urgent matter,
With radical optimism,

I'm an independent and would have supported Tancredo because immigration is my #1 issue since I live in SoCal. I also like Duncan Hunter.
Since both candidates want open borders (despite the rhetoric), I'm leaning towards Borat Osama because I believe the rampant fascist capitalism has crippled this country. Everytime I see another coporate bailout/subsidy I want to stick a knife in my eye. These companies have no risk with the taxpayers' money there for a safety net.
obama will be bailout mania
the dems and liberal bush who has no other choice other than to support bailing out in order to try to get outta office before shit really hits the fan supported the FNM housing bill....
obama likely winning and stuck playing a FDR type role as whoever gets in office economy will be their top priority for the 4 years
Yeah Tancredo or Hunter would've been great... I have no choice with Baldwin look @ his record on Immigration nobody else even comes close http://www.betterimmigration.com/candidates/2006/prez2008.html
