It seems to me that FR does not define conservatism, it simply reflects was passes for conservatism in the real world.

I think an excellent example of this was the recent Terri Schiavo case. In my opinion, given that this was NOT a case of euthanasia, the true conservative position would have been to honor the patient's wishes -- not promote judicial activism and federal government intervention.

Now, I don't know if this was the type of thread to which you were referring, but I do know that quite a few Freepers had your attitude and said they were leaving.

It won't take too many more threads like that, filled with emotion-based propaganda, distortions of the truth, outright lies and name-calling in every other post to result in more true conservatives leaving what is starting to look like that other "forum".

I wondered too, and checked GOPCapitalist's posting history.

Oh, give it a rest with your distortions and untruths. You have to know that there was no solid evidence that the patient wanted to be starved of all food and water, orally or otherwise.

Please spare us this nonsense.

Since you brought it up, in my opinion it was murder.
