Sorry HWR conservatives ARE NOT mean and selfish. At least those I respect aren’t. Some are certainly stupid though. -Conservatives do believe in self discipline and taking responsibility for one’s actions rather than government. -Conservatives believe in initiative and the glory of the Constitution and amendments as the ideal to follow. -Conservatives believe in and support the free market. Free markets have done more to lift people out of poverty then ANY state run program. -Conservatives don’t support crony capitalism which is just another form of socialism and they don’t believe that the state is there to protect their position in life. It’s up to each and evert one to do so by skill intelligence and hard work. -Conservatives believe in free speech, even speech we disagree with. We don’t believe in rioting just because we lost an election or jury verdict. We respect the law and authority even when our political opponents are in office. Likewise we call out both our opponents AND allies when they transgress on either the law or our beliefs. -Conservatives are compassionate and by every measure most charitable giving and work is done by conservatives including many Trump supporters. -Conservatives believe that the state is the last resort of support and dependence on the state requires one surrender freedom for support. That is anathema to conservatives. -Conservatism is a set of principles NOT a set of positions. Reality changes with the time and you must hold to your principles to address current issues. Liberals are stupid but they can also be evil.
Well mean to me and mean to you appear to be different. Mean to me means giving a man just enough to survive on (wellfare) vs motivating him to to get off his ass and learn to work hard for his family and himself. Kind of like the old saying "is it better to give a man a fsh or teach him how to fish". Yes some conservatives are stupid as there are stupid people in every group. However the liberals of today are mean but not stupid. They are on a mission to destroy the fabric of this country by very diabolical means. To "fundamentally transform America" in the words of Barrack Hussien Obama, yes I included his middle name. That not only makes them mean but very dangerous. I could go on and on about what is stupid and mean about the liberals but the above example is a good microcosm of what I am trying to say. Here is one more example; is it kind or mean to abort a child at 8 months into a pregnacy? I say it's not only mean but infanticide. Now that you brought this up I may take some time to make a list for a future post, stay tuned.
I blame this on you @Bengal B,.. you've got Moe all fired up, now he thinks, he is a conservative talk show host. . . abortion is murder
He will do pretty well at it as long as he doesn't pronounce words the way he spells them. Why don't you become a regular caller?
Wouldn't want to take you away from your favorite program, Spongebob may be a little too deep for you
