Really? I think you should put up or shut up. What ideals have I
espoused that are liberal? Name at least three.... or as a corollary,
name at least three conservative principles that I have disavowed. By
"conservative" I mean really conservative, not fascist whacko-ism.

This is pointless, because you'll accuse me of "fascist whackoism" no matter
what I say. But I'm a glutton for liberal punishment, so here goes.

1) You vilified Reagan for his stance against welfare. I would like you to
show me where in the US Constitution it provides for taking money from some
and giving it to others. Welfare is clearly a socialist concept, and
requires an expansion of government (local, state, or federal, depending
upon the administrator) to administer the program. You further labeled
Reagan's stance on welfare as racist. Why? Are you implying that welfare
is the sole province of minorities?

2) You branded so-called "Reaganomics" as absurd. The concept is nothing
new. It's called supply-side economics, and it has been around for
centuries. I found an obscure reference to it in a yellowed book on early
economics of the Continent (that would be Europe for those of you who
graduated from public schools). The book was copywritten in the early
1900s, but dealt with the period beginning with the signing of the Magna
Charta. Supply-side economics is generally a conservative mantra.

3) You've made reference to other topics--too many to enumerate here--that
seem to imply a belief in larger, more expansive government. Conservatives
generally favor smaller government and greater limitation of its powers.

Now, in the words of Bill Clinton: "deny, deny, deny." But to paraphrase
my earlier comment, a pig isn't going to show at the Westminster, regardless
of your contention that it is, indeed, a poodle. Despite your belief to the
contrary, Rush Limbaugh, Ollie North, and Sean Hannity have a far better
grasp of conservatism than you.
