Common sense is the driving force behind conservatism.
But I do think there are some fringe elements that are totally self centered and call themselves conservative that meets her description that I’m ashamed to be associated with.
That would be the completely disavow any governmental responsibility for the poor and needy, all taxes are theft, as well as the shoot the child for a pack of gum crowd.

I've known many Leftists who learn that I am a Conservative and accuse me of being a dictator who wants to control everyone, take away their fun, and oppress minorities.
I say, "No. I just want you to leave me alone."
But they aren't buying it. They know that Conservatives are control freaks who get off on messing up other people's lives.
It's projection, of course.

WHat a load. Conservatives, ESPECIALLY religious conservatives, are, as a group, more giving and generous WITH THEIR OWN MONEY than Liberals...

I don’t know who Amanda Marcotte is but she needs a spanking. With a paddle.

Horowitz shouldn’t have given the woman the publicity. She is nuts.
To: ClearCase_guy
If they are honest and not just bigots, then they are reacting to puritanism. Most American liberal opposition to religion is along these lines.
Who are the puritans today?

And now that she’s no longer cute, she’s totally worthless...
(I hope you read this, Miss Marcotte, and decide to use it to illustrate the hostility and sexism of conservatives [and, thereby, reveal your own lack of intelligence and comprehension of literary techniques].)

Man, has this woman got it backwards. I’ve met some truly sadistic liberals in my life.

Remember when she wandered off into the Duke Lacrosse Frame? We cut her liver out and fed it to her.

It's projection, of course. And the fact that many who do want to run your life call themselves "conservatives."

What she has to say really is of no consequence. There are plenty of other things to worry about these days than what some nobody has to say about something they know nothing about. All she needs is a good spanking...

"That would be the completely disavow any governmental responsibility for the poor and needy" If you're OK with the government taking money from MR A to give to Mr B,
because MR A has a lot of money, and MR B has none, you'd love Karl Marx.
"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need."
Man, you're a true blue socialist, and I bet you didn't even know it.
CONGRATULATIONS!
You should be very comfortable in the United Socialist States of Amerika.

All she needs is a good spanking...What makes you think her "significant other" doesn't spank her?

In all fairness, controlling other people's lives 'for their own good' is a hallmark of certain sects of conservatisim......
but the whine of 'UNFAIR' by the more progressive members of society is downright childish. Particularly when all that happened was a repeating what this blithering idiot said.

What I can't understand is why anyone would actually pay her for typing up her cowardly spew.
