Subject:   WHAT IS A CONSERVATIVE
Date:   12/1/2012 11:12:08 PM (updated 12/1/2012 11:29:48 PM)

A conservative believes in CONSERVING that which is good but is willing to listen to the opinions of others and supports the right of others to hold and express those opinions rather than angrily trying to squelch them. A conservative realizes that as the world moves on some things that have been held sacred in the past might not be operable in the evolving world. Conservatives once supported slavery, segregation, American isolationism and restricted suffrage but helped change them when it became apparent that, for the good of the nation, they needed to be changed. An American conservative seeks the respect if not the approval of ALL Americans and not just those "makers" and others in agreement with him. A conservative believes in the Bill of Rights (ALL OF THEM all the time). A conservative accepts the will of the people in free elections and moves on to perfect his message in a way to sway them differently in the next election. A conservative, almost by definition believes, in moderation as a guide in forming opinions and establishing principles...after all is it not the "immoderate" liberals that are rushing to change the way things are? Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan, Warren Rudman, Evritt Dirksen, and Barry Goldwater were conservatives (unlike some of their supporters) who are rolling in their graves at what the GOP base is calling "conservative" today.

Wix your posts make it self-evident that you are certainly NOT a conservative in any sense of the term, you are a rightwing extremist and a paranoid nut to boot!
