i'm finding that the conservatives here have a woeful lack of

Firstly, I disagree with you labeling them "conservative." They don't really
appear to be that. I think radical right (radical for this country anyway)
would be more appropriate. I'm a fiscal conservative for sure. I'm a liberal
when it comes to social issues.

Secondly, I'm shocked by the seeming lack of knowledge about current events
also. I think that's not really the case. I think it's more of ignoring
facts when they're inconvenient.

I'm happy to reevaluate the performance of Obama and/or the Dem.
"leadership" in Congress as necessary. The latter are truly dropping the
ball right now, and I strongly believe that Obama got involved too late in
the process. I don't see those on the radical right honestly evaluating
those politicians (and other, e.g., Beck, Rush, Wilson, Palin, Cheney) on
the right who are leadership roles (in name or in fact).

It's good to see you have found your 'niche' here, right between Harry
and w3fh, with Donnie as a chaser.

If you find things too shocking, there really are a lot of political
groups where your expertise would be immensely appreciated.

She is a fiscal conservative, in her words, meaning she wants to make
and keep her own money. On social issues, she doesn't mind throwing YOUR
money around. It's so easy to be a liberal socialist, don't you think?

....a staunch liberal fiscally conservative socialist - depending on
the source of the money.

Makes sense to me.
