Republicans are for AIDS money to Africa. Conservatives are for aid to working American citizens.
Republicans are for letting the free market decide that $5 a gallon gas is OK. Conservatives are for compelling foreign oil producers to increase production and reduce prices, by force if necessary.
Republicans are for bailing out billionaire money manipulators on Wall Street while you wait in line at the hospital behind an illegal alien. Conservatives are for letting Wall Street hucksters pay for their own mistakes and sending the illegal back to Mexico.
Republicans are for letting market forces decide if your food has fecal matter in it. Conservatives are for enforcing basic food safety standards so that Mexican farm workers can't crap in the fields and make you sick.
Republicans think bringing in illegal aliens is an amnesty. Conservatives think brining in illegal aliens is a travesty.
Republicans want a strong global economy. Conservatives want a country. Republicans think that child porn on the internet is freedom from government. Conservatives know that smut is a poison that must be snuffed out. America thought Bush was a conservative. He turned out to be just a Republican. And while there are Republicans who are conservatives, too, don't let the "R" after the name fool you. Let the voter – and the listener – beware.
Fire away....
And Mike supports Jerry Brown. How does he fit into either category?
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIBERAL AND CONSERVATIVE
1. Copy this and give it to your liberal friends.
2. Take them somewhere to sit down and read NOW, not later.
3. 9 out of 10 will discover they are actually conservative.
DEFENSE
Conservatives believe that the only way to preserve world peace is to have a powerful, prepared defense. The Republican Party and its leaders are strongly opposed to domestic and international terrorism, and are committed to a policy that will make no concessions to terrorists. Conservatives believe in working diplomatically to help resolve dangerous regional conflicts and has achieved a reduction of nuclear weapons. Defense Peace and freedom can be only achieved though strength. History has shown, painfully, that weakness and vacillation invite aggression.
Liberal administrations have cut America’s defenses. Relying on talk and good intentions to preserve world peace, Liberals advocate sublimation of our sovereign interest to the authority of the United Nations.
ECONOMY
Conservatives believe that the free enterprise system is the key to individual and national prosperity. Conservatives seek to protect the free enterprise system against unwarranted government regulation, believe that “individuals shall prosper.”
Liberals have, time and again, encouraged budget deficits and continues to fight plans to balance the federal budget, call for reducing the federal deficit through reductions in defense and tax increases, believe that “government shall provide...”
BUDGET
Conservatives believe the family is the foundations of our social order; the school of democracy, believe it is important that we reflect upon and consider carefully the impact of government actions upon family life.
Liberals support efforts to make federal programs and benefits available.. same sex couples.
CRIME
Conservatives believe the first obligation of government is to protect the lives and property of its citizens. Both adults & juveniles must learn that actions have consequences & that they are responsible for their behavior.
Liberals often vote to water down crime fighting provisions and support endless appeal processes.
THE ENVIRONMENT
Conservatives recognize the importance of a safe and clean environment, and believes that the environmental concerns must be balanced against economic growth and energy development. Conservatives emphasize the free market, exploration of new energy stores, and an environmentally friendly approach to bringing new energy resources to the American people.
Liberals also recognize the importance of safe and clean environment, but lack concern for the economic factors involved and the jobs that regulations cost. Liberals emphasize conservation to solve the energy problems and place environment over development which result in continued reliance on foreign oil.
REGULATION
Conservatives strive to cut excessive regulation, decentralize the federal government and return power to state and local governments and would exempt small businesses from regulation wherever feasible.
Liberal policies stifle business, especially small business, with endless regulation, paperwork and red tape.
EDUCATION
Conservatives believe in local control of school boards, have advanced the concept of school vouchers allowing parental choice for lower income families to seek the best school for their children.
Liberals consistently protect the status-quo of our falling educational system resisting creative efforts to improve opportunities for our children.
POVERTY
Conservatives believe that to remedy poverty requires that we sustain and broaden economic recovery, hold families together, get government’s hand out of their pocketbooks, and restore the work ethic.
Liberals say that “For some, the goal of independence requires greater support and assistance from government. We pledge to provide that support.”
WELFARE
Conservatives support: able-bodied recipients of welfare to work, time limits on assistance, incentives to receive schooling or job training and pursuing” dead-beat dads” for child support.
I’m not sure how much I like Savage, but this is spot on!
The Golfer is Rush Limbaugh..
I like a lot of what he said, but this is WAY off base. Conservatives should be for opening up America's OWN oil reserves to drilling in a responsible and safe manner, enviroweenies be damned. If Savage is seriously suggesting we invade Arab countries just to get their oil, that's crazy talk.

I’m a conservative... and I’m close to grabbing a pitchfork and a torch and storming the offices of the gutless idiots in the House and Senate.
Establishment Republican = compassionate conservative = liberalism Lite
Savage is a Nationalist. They got booted from the party a long time ago.
There are many types of ‘conservative’ labels out there. A shirt for every day of the week.
How in the world are gonna do that, if conservatives have a hissy fit and don't vote for Republicans in the Fall and we lose our filibuster minority in the Senate. Then we won't be able to stop Reid and Pelosi from totally gutting the Armed Services. Where will this conservative 'force' come from? Just sayin'...
and the assclown is Michael Weiner
“Conservatives are for compelling foreign oil producers to increase production and reduce prices, by force if necessary.”
Well you were way off on this one, so below is the edited version:
Conservatives are for drilling for our own oil in order to produce more to increase production and reduce prices, and Compete in the world oil market.
Come on, it’s a family show here.
We're making corn beef out of them?
If that's the best we can hope for, realistically, we're finished. Because such a loss is quite likely, given the weak candidate at he top of the ticket. Talk about hanging on by your fingernails.
spot on.
Are you a liberal? Most of what this moron wrote is trash.
You should go back and reread it slowly, then read some of the comments by others.
Savage slams both republicans and conservatives in this hit piece.
Why should Conservatives vote for a Pro Environmentalist, Pro illegal alien, McCain Finegold, McCain Kennedy, anti Gitmo, Anti Bush Tax Cut..... Need I say more???
