ok, I am curious, what is 'conservative?'
I happen to believe I am a 'social-values conservative.' I make that distintcion on purpose, because I want to be separate from those who ONLY care about fiscal, economic matters. But seriously, I want to know where I and people like fall me fall in according to your definition...
Mind you, I don't think it is necessary to belong to a religion or even to be a Christian to be 'social (values) conservative.' Just a person who wants to conserve some moral values or simply values, they feel are important
Thanks.
...people like me fall in... :)
A conservative in my book is for limited government and supports moral values. There are far too many “conservatives” who just want the government enforcing their worldview in terms of morality. That is the sort of thinking that brings about things like Prohibition.
I’m not in disagreement with that. But to be a conservative in the current definition, you must not ONLY be a social-values conservative but ALSO have at least some semblence of fiscal and economic conservatism too...which is why both Rudy and Huck are not conservatives and for the opposite reasons.
