For me this just highlights how much people go around calling themselves Conservative when the truth is they are not. Just like many People posting on FR refer to themselves as Conservative but they are not.

With Liberalism, any fool can call himself a Lib and be accurate enough because the standards of Liberalism are so low and bottom of the barrel scuzzy, that there really is not point in scrutinizing.

With Conservatism, there are many people who think they are strict in a straight and narrow way when it comes to politics, and so that means they are Conservative. But they are not true Conservatives.

If you are divorced and playing golf on Sunday and flying around Central America with viagra (like Rush) then you are at most a Republican and not a Conservative.

If you are not sitting with your family in church on Sunday then you can't even begin to think of yourself as a true Conservative. From there flows true Conservatism such as being concerned about smut being shown on TV, the homosexual agenda being advanced in the courts and the dumbing down of America by the Democrat controlled education system.

The Christian family values inspired people that walk the walk, and not just talk the talk, are the true Conservatives.

Sorry, but you can be a conservative without sitting in church. I find your arrogance and bias disgusting.

[5Madman2]

My ex-wife used to meet her boss, now her husband, at the church while I was working shift work to support her and my kids. This was while we were married

I've seen a couple others use the Church as the launching pad and cover for new romances that trashed their standing marriages.

Don't equate "Church" with "Conservative" or "family values" with me or a lot of others here. I don't need to sit in Church ever Sunday or thump a Bible to care for my country and society.

I read your homepage. You need to take yourself a little less seriously

What a steaming pile of horse crap! Guy that means if your a single orphan athiest you can't be a conservative? Who are you? Pat Robertson?

[ExDemSince92]

Attitudes like that are responsible for keeping a lot of folks home on Sunday.

"If you are not sitting with your family in church on Sunday then you can't even begin to think of yourself as a true Conservative."

Not every conservative is as perfect as you think you are.

[Halls]

I disagree. I've heard Rush tell people over and over he does not want to be this all moral representitive for the Republicans. He is human justlike the rest of us. Conservatism politcally can mean lots of things, it has nothing to do with whether you go to church, are married,etc..

Personally, if Rush wants to take Viagra than good for him. My 62 year old father takes it and I think it is fine and he is a conservative. So what if Rush is divorced. He may be in a tight relationship right now for all we know, it isn't our business and he doesn't preach that he is the perfect moral man, so who are we to judge?

Perhaps your definition of "conservative" and others' definition of "conservative" are different. I welcome people who don't spend Sundays in church and don't have families to sit with in said church to join the conservative political movement, assuming they agree with the logic of certain key principles (e.g., smaller government-- from which everything else flows).

There is a difference between living a socially conservative life (which plenty of political "liberals" do) and being politically conservative. You seem to have the two confused.

I pray that Jesus would tell you to shutup.

You sanctimonious bore, you! It is NOT for you to decide just who is a Conservative and who isnt. Limbaugh is as Conservative as they get, and we are ALL sinners. Dont forget that.

[RJS1950]

If you are not sitting with your family in church on Sunday then you can't even begin to think of yourself as a true Conservative.

Indeed, what a pile of crap!

I suppose that God himself took the time to personally tell you that. I would expect that kind of mindless thought process from a muslim -- "if you don't believe as I do you are worthless and insignificant". You have no idea what is in the heart of anybody who does not sit in church every Sunday whether it involves politics or religious beliefs. This country needs your mindset about as much as it needs the democrat party.

What?!

If you are not sitting with your family in church on Sunday then you can't even begin to think of yourself as a true Conservative.

Double what?!

You, sir or madam, have a breathtakingly ignorant understanding of the term "conservative" as applied to politics -- heck, as applied to any aspect of life. It has nothing, zero, nada, to do with religion or Christianity.

There are conservatives, moderates and liberals in all religions, and even among people who are not religious at all. Within companies, there are managers who are conservatives and those who are liberal in their approaches to their jobs. And, of course, there are political conservatives, moderates and liberals in most countries in the world.

In politics, depending on the country and/or political movement, conservatives could be the bad guys or the good guys. Example: Fundamentalist Muslims are conservatives, meaning the traditionalists in their faith. They want to cling to anti-modern practices, and many want to force others to do so.

.........If you are not sitting with your family in church on Sunday then you can't even begin to think of yourself as a true Conservative........

you are a blasphemer who should be stoned and put to death with your entire congregation of heretics....SUNDAY!!! SUNDAY!!!!!

All TRUE CONSERVATIVES KNOW that Saturday is the sabbath.... that is how far you have fallen out of favor with the Lord Yahweh or as I like to say "éäåä" ....

Therefore I say that you are only a Republican and NOT a CONSERVATIVE.../sarc

asshat...
