You are by far the most pacifist conservative I have ever run across. Are you sure your talents couldn't be used on a more liberal site? Judging by your posts, your "friends" are more than likely Democrats.
Are you into that kind of tolerance? Most of us here can hardly stay in the same room. You seem to be tight roping the fence, don't ya think. You remind me of Kerry, "I voted for it, before I voted against it"
Oh, and there's this little tid bit, that says a whole lot. Tell me do you have your own opinion about anything, or are you just here to stir sh!t up?

Your Reply:
Yes, you guys have quite alot in common.
1) You both love war, but have different targets for different reasons.
2) You both love big government when your party is in office, and hate it when the other party is in control of it.
3) You both spend our taxes like crazy. Dems tax, repubs borrow. Dems spend on social programs, repubs on weapons.
4) You both love immigration--repubs for cheap labor, dems for cheap cause.
5) You both love free trade for cheap trinkets.
6) You both want to enforce your morality by law.
7) Few repubs or dems question their party line.
8) Both hate third parties, because they address the issues you won't.
9) Both love the Constitution, when the other is in office.
10) Both have sexually active, drug-addicted teens.
11) You both love the UN, but dems want submission to it, repubs want to control it.
12) You both love the world court. Dems want us subject to it, repubs want only others subject to it.
13) You both oppose child labor, but neither has written a law banning imports from nations that use it.

Hey I just figured it out! You just like to piss everybody off, right?
Ya know, I think I'll invite a few FReepers to take a look at your philosophy.........
If this is what defines an independent, no wonder you guys can't find a candidate that holds up.
