"What do you wish to conserve? For me, its my ability to be as self-sufficient as possible."

Well obviously so do I, but if you take a risk free approach to any business endeavor there is no great reward either. I don't like any of these socialist programs and to me that is what the medicare bill and CFR is. I do however believe that is the trend stands it is a smart risk to reform them later and get what we want which is tru reform and privatization. You can't do that without laying the groundwork and that is what they accomplished even though it is terribly riddled with bankrupting entitlements.

I think you have to see the strategy here and not get the cart before the horse. Poising the party to take control of the issues is what we want. Politics is like fierce buisness competition. You either set yourself up for controlling market share or you keep being marginalized by the competition.

It's risky legislation but it is a safer risk when you look at the trends than most investments. This is a conservative principle. Smart risks arn't exactly 100% gambles and pay off more than not.

Let me clarify this statement a little more as the trends meaning picking up more seats in the senate and the congress to power.

Taking issues away from the Dims like for example the economy is bad ranting and watching them publicly fall apart and not to mention HOW WRONG THEY ARE is a really good strategy to win too. Consider the ranting they are left with. Stupid moronic blowing that even turns most people off.

Yeah Bush IS conservative and there ain't no compassion in what he has accomplished in turning the democrats into. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. I find it amazing that so many conservatives here don't understand business 101.

Interesting.

There's a difference between how a lot of people look at candidates and issues and how I look at them.

I look at each thing individually to see if it fits my personal beliefs and what I'm willing to put up with, rather than any blank party affiliation. One of those wild-eyed independents everyone goes chasing after.

Experience has shown me that once things get into place, they don't go away. Expansions don't become contractions and loss of liberty is never redeemed.

If that is putting the cart before the horse, then there must be something I'm missing entirely. But, I'm not seeing a roadmap being put out by anyone except for self-styled analysts who are trying to read between the lines.

I want to conserve my liberty.
I want to conserve my resources.
I want Government out of my life as much as possible.

How can I do that when every politician views me as a slave, my wallet as his personal piggy-bank, and my constitution as toilet-tissue?

If this is a gamble, it is a very big one because people like me are looking at it and being very turned off by it. It may be due to lack of communication and/or roadmap, but it has the net effect of sending me to the Constitution Party.
