What's your definition of a Conservative or a contrarian? KentuckyWomen has been the recipient of a lof heat simply for espousing the desire to have our Conservative leaders respect and uphold the Constitution. I think Harry Browne is a nutcase but I understand where he is coming from in this article. Does being a "Good Conservative" mean that we have to follow our leaders blindly and unquestioningly? Those that would suggest so are the one's who should start packing. This country was meant for better men and women.
But you did hit her with one...
Perhaps it was overwhelming synergy that dispatched her.
...or her Parents came home.
No, just wondering if anbody has been banned on this thread, and trying to figure out what gets a person banned, thats all, nothing else.

Ridiculing and tearing down our President - even if he's not as conservative as some of us would like - is not constructive, IMO. Instead we need to be changing the hearts and minds of our neighbors and our young people, so that more conservative politicians have a chance of being elected. We also need to be helping conservative candidates at lower levels of government - because those are the foundations of our government, and because national politicians usually begin as local politicians.
So right on! I actually was in a petty flame war earlier (wrong of me) trying to argue this point about Davis vs. Simon but couldn't explain it properly. I wish I had read this first..
Some brains have been "fried."
No, just trying to figure out what gets a person banned, I've been posting for over a year on the Never Ending Story thread, and lurk on the rest of FR, kinda sheltered I guess :) I've been seeing alot threads where folks have been banned lately and was just asking, I should of been more clear on my question.

You too? Im vapid also....
There is quite a difference between what is claimed and what apparently goes on.
Bears repeating. Wake up people.
Well Angus me lad, lets start here:
Was Osama bin Laden culpable in the massacre at the WTC?
If it were that simple I would defend her myself...but it isnt...
1. "Give 'em time my friend. They're working diligently to overturn posse comitatus even as we speak. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!! I just hope that we're not the ones that end up being dog meat!!"
2. "If Krintoon and his administration had tried to get away with only half of the unconstitutional, liberty erasing measures passed under Bush, the self-described conservatives in this Country would be up in arms."
3. "One is becoming a monarchy while the other is a dictatorship."
4. "Just between the Patriot Act and the No Child Left Behind Act, both of which Pres. Bush has supported wholeheartedly, we will no longer recognize this Country with 10 years (if it takes that long) and all this never-ending "war" business is nothing more than to keep the sheople feeling fearful and crying to big-brother to keep them safe. Frankly, I'm getting pretty darned sick of it. I won't even begin to get into the who knew what and when regarding 9/11 here."
5. "It wasn't freedom that was attacked (at least not by any 'terrorists'), it was the policians interventionist, empire building policies that were 'attacked'"
That is much more than simply wanting the President to honor the Constitution.
Should we trust George W. Bush?
No.
He is a politician, and he is a Bush.
That's enough for me.
That's all WhiteGuy knows and all he needs or wants to know!
