"I don't see any reference to special creation here."

The Aryan was God's creation, according to Hitler.

"Merely saying like begets like doesn't imply fixity of species."

Sure it does.

"Oh. So thats the definition of "conservative" you would find in any reference book? (And of course, "truth" is what you zeolots say it is.) "

Honesty is a part of it, yes.

"Please tell us who the real "conservative" candidate (running in a major party, and having a chance to win) was in 2004."

That's my point exactly; there were none because they didn't have a chance.

"The Aryan was God's creation, according to Hitler."

So what. Doesn't prove Hitler thought the Aryan was a special creation, unrelated to other human beings. Besides, Hitler knew it was good politics in a Christian nation to use Christian-sounding rhetoric, just as liberals are now frantically pretending to "reach out" to Christians. Hitler was no Christian.

Like begetting like does NOT prove fixity of species. "Like" is not "identical." It merely proves heredity. I repeat: the fact that offspring resemble their parents was well known to Darwin, and was one of the foundations of his theory.

"there were none because they didn't have a chance."

I see. So we have to postulate imaginary "true conservative" candidates who were mysteriously eliminated by evil fundamentalist plots, in order for your theory to work. There were only 2 candidates with a chance: Kerry and Bush, of whom Bush was far preferable to conservatives. The election was very close, and Jean-Francois would be president without the "fundie" vote.
