That's the problem folks don't understand what a conservative is, they think it's a poluting, war mongering, greedy uncaring SOB's that want to see people starve, bambi die, and babies blown-up. When faced with the truth they try to cover their rear ends instead of having the fuzz on their testicles to say "Gee maybe we had them wrong and don't really know what they are about and are really doing".
Conservatives are NOT against the EPA, "Hale" we have to live on this planet too!! We are against stupid appilcation of EPA rules, and running arround crying the sky is falling cause someone somewhere say it is.
Conservative don't want war, "Hale" we the ones that will bear the brunt of the cost of war, the majority of the military is conservative.
Conservative don't want to see people starve and die from hunger. We are against giving people a free ride not against helping them. If anyone bothers to find out they'll see that the MOST conservative states are the ones that GIVE the most per captia to help the less fortunate(Oh by the way if you'll look at those States you'll also find out they are some of the poorest, in money terms, yet they give they MOST). We just understand everything is life has a cost and somewhere somehow that cost must be paid, and we more than pull our weight. Now here's another one for the "Earned Income Credit" was also stated under a Conservative, but that can't possibly be true cause everybody knows Conservatives are greedy and don't want to pay their fair share of taxes we want the poor to pay all of the taxes, it couldn't be a conservative that did that.
Conservative understand the wage and price controls were the largest single assinine policy the US government tried and directly lead to the run away inflation of the mid-late 70's. Yet the liberals don't understand that even after 2 two years of FAILURE here in the USA nad 70 years of FAILURE in the USSR.
