it already...and the list was entirely blank?


Like many facts & events in the real world, it passed you by, didn't it?

The resident right-wing whackos of this newsgroup
have shown consistent disregard for what is
really "conservative" and what is really
"liberal." It's not likely that most of them will
ever learn anything, much less the following
principles, but at least I have tried.

Conservatives believe:

The gov't should be fiscally restrained.

The country's military should be maintained or
increased in strength to the extent of
being able to defeat any realistic threats.

Criminals guilty of certain heinous acts deserve
the death penalty.

Wow. You're more conservative than me on this one.


Every right comes at a cost, and every priviledge
carries a corresponding obligation.

Morals are not relative, and principles are not a
matter of inconvenience. In the same light,
hypocrisy regarding morals, ethics, and principle
is one of the most repugnant human failings.


It's funny that you specify morals, ethics, and principle as conservative
traits. I agree...and it's the opposite of liberal traits.



The status quo of social and economic order should
be maintained,

Bzzzzzt. Nice try, but no. Under the status quo, Americans currently pay a
progressive tax. Conservatives abhor the idea of a progressive tax...which
is designed to undo the status quo and take more money from the wealthy and
give it to the poor via government entitlements.


or adjusted to
meet certain demands.

I'm ok with that as long as it's equitable and across the board. That's why
we should have a flat tax. Wanna raise my *rate*? Then everybody's *rate*
is increased.
