State your opinion from now till the end of time.....it doesn't get credibility by critizing Jim Robinson. Your opinion ought to be able to stand alone!
I don't think Joe's post was about criticizing Jim.
I think it was more about defining conservatism.
Is a person who:
- Thinks that government is too big
- Thinks taxes are too high
- Thinks that judges should not legislate from the bench
- Thinks that abortion is wrong
- Thinks that individuals have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms
- Thinks that the free market is generally the best solution to economic concerns
- Thinks that the liberal mindset ensnares the poor in a self-perpetuating state of poverty
- Thinks that communism and anarchism are two of the biggest threats to people
- That local communities and states should have the right to self governance
Is such a person a conservative? Even if said person doesn't consider immigration a concern?
Or is that person not conservative?
