Everybody prefers the conservative label over the dastardly liberal label! Millions will tell a pollster they are conservative while either having no real understanding of the definition, or just thinking it's a good label unless anyone thinks it makes them appear too harsh and not easy-going enough.
Over the years I've seen many FReepers claim the obligatory conservative label to fit in to this site, some who are clueless what it really means to be a consistent conservative over who they support and what issues they should be lined up with and supporting.
Some even think to this very day that being identified/registered as or voting for any Republican is enough. Really! That's what it is... just a comfort zone! That's all it is to far too many people, especially here in CA!!!
Amen!
