Sorry. I’m a conservative FIRST, not a repub party hack. The party doesn’t mean JACK, if it’s not also conservative.

Well said, Fish. "Conservatism" isn't judged by who is where on a linear ideological spectrum at a particular point in history.

Faith, culture, tradition, ancestral ties, and institutions are far more powerful than the politics of the day or any ideology.

That was also very well put.
