Sure, go ahead and give my screen name to Jim. He'll probably get a chuckle out of it.
I'm no more an "Islamist" than Kermit the Frog is. But I will not allow FR to become a haven for the kind of venal, bigoted liquid I've been seeing in this thread without having something to say about it.
Western civilization, at a peak with the formation of The United Sates, is superior to all others. We are conservatives, in the sense that:
We champion liberty above all; the freedom to do what you please, without government telling you, "no."
We value taking responsibility for yourself, including your stupid decisions. We believe that someone else's stupidity does NOT mean you can reach into MY wallet and give them My money, without my direct permission.
We believe that people should stand on their own two feet, and produce or not. People who work hard to create wealth should get rewarded. People who freeload should get nothing.
Any questions?
