I'm paying attention to recent history.

Yours is a wholesale surrender to socialism. Rather than fight the assertion that people are owed entitlements (perish the thought, now that Republicans are too buying votes), you would foresake the concept of rights altogether.

As conservatives, our core values are :

As a free people we reserve a nearly infinite set of non-enumerated rights. And no one owes you help in exercising a single one of those rights.

Rights + responsibility. Are these not conservative values?

No, mine is a wholesale aknowledgement to the dangers of activist courts. I'm fighting the assertion that any damn thing you can think of is a right.

As you said "nearly infinite" that means not everything is a right, taking vitamins is on that list.
