Welcome to Free Republic, but you picked a really dumb name. There is no such thing as a moderate conservative. You are either a conservative or not a conservative. Conservatism is a set of core values and convictions that are logical and spiritually derived and as such can not be compromised (which is what moderate-ism is all about).

I'm just saying.

Of course there is such a thing as a moderate conservative. There are degrees of conservatism even within the conservative movement.

That was a really dumb comment. So somebody who holds 95% of the views that you believe define conservatism, but disagrees on the other 5%, is simply not a conservative?
