"In short, we believe in the power of free individuals and fear unbridled power in the hands of others."

This article made sense to me, but feel free to poke holes in it where you see fit.

Conservative opposition to government spending programs doesn’t stem from a lack of compassion for the unfortunate as some claim. Rather, it’s because we have compassion that others may live their lives as they choose and use their wealth in the way they choose.

I would also point out that aside from freedom, our way works better. History proves that Capitalism = progress and Socialism = bread lines.

This is a good article. The link you gave does not go directly to the article you posted. I've been looking around for the site and can't seem to find it. I am probably just missing it. Do you have a direct link for pathetic searcher like me? Thanks!

If you support the idea that government should stay out of your bedroom you’re anarcho-lefty.

I support the idea that the government should stay out of my bedroom, and you can see where I stand by my posting name. They should stay out, of course, unless I'm in there with a dead girl or a live boy, or I'm about to infect somebody who is unaware that I have the AIDS virus.

The author is of course referring to gay marriage, which involves a LOT more than bedroom behavior. Gays don't want to just keep the government out of their bedroom (who'd want to go in there anyway?). They want to bring their bedrooms out into the street, and make us watch. And I say not just no, but HELL NO! So call me a black helicopter kook if you want.

What makes a conservative tick?

Truth, honesty and doing what is right.

That was too easy.
