A lot people say they are conservatives, but then look at what they are for????
It seems that's a BIG PART of WHY we cannot get the RIGHT guy in office. It's also why our Republic continues to drift to the left.... and will continue unless this is clear and concise. I do understand to finding the purest conservative is difficult. Pretty much ever Republican Candidate has some LEFTIST ideas.
Think about this...
Bush 41 and 43 were a labeled a Conservatives to some people.
Newt is considered conservative to some people
Ron Paul is considered conservative.
Heck Ann Coulter thinks Mitt Romney is enough of a conservative that she supports him.
Plus there is a lot of misinformation on what is Left vs. Right. For instance, whenever Socialist/Communist can't win an argument they attack the Conservative by calling him Nazi. The Nazis as most of us already know were National Socialist. So to say a Right Left wing is absurd, wrong and only a smear tactic.
At any rate it needs to be redefined so that everyone is on the same page. This IMHO is why we cannot seem to get a real Conservative in the White House. IMHO we have NOT had a conservative since Ronald Reagan.
Exactly right. But then we have some GROUPTHINK on this thread who don’t seem willing or capable to making this inquiry. Some have made some good contrapuntal arguments, others simply go hysterical on any kind of Newt info that portrays him either as a flip-flopper or unelectable.
