This forum has turned into the worst kind of caricature of conservatism. These days it's just a collection of people who don't know what they're talking about, posting lies about people they've never met, and demanding that they be strung up for crimes then never committed, because they read a story that they didn't understand.
All of you people should be ashamed of yourselves. In the last 9 months I've read more outright stupidity on FR than I ever thought conservatives were capable of. But if you're an example, then I guess 'conservative' doesn't mean what it used to.
Conservative still means “small government advocate”. It never meant anything else.
So when you have government using an entity like the global banking cartel running rampant and ruining lives, this is the attitude you get.
I agree with your assessment about the quantity of ouright stupidity but have a suspicion that most of the stupidity was posted by Republicans, not conservatives.
