What is your definition of modern 21st century american conservative?

[Charles_Main]

Lets see how many dimwits are out there.

Nice poll that is meaningless as it leaves real Conservatives with no good choice.

Biased much?

In other words, a political party made up of greedy people willing to let the American people suffer no matter what.

how does rejecting the health insurance reform bill that passed or the patriot act let people "suffer no matter what"?

A party that promotes the strip mining of our entire country as long as corporations are free to squeeze whatever they can out of the American citizen.

nope, true capitalists are against monopolies and promote small, local development and business as this best fosters competition and market availability

The truth is, they want a kind of "Theocratic Democracy" where the "church" is the true power with political candidates needing to pass a "litmus" test before before they can run for office. And not just any church. But a kind of "Evangelical" right wing church based on a Bible they would need to rewrite following a constitution they would also need to rewrite. A church that will see the "godliness" of corporations.

where have I ever mentioned God and saying a certain religion should be required of candidates?

The best example of what the American right wing wants to turn this country into is Iran. Only Christian instead of Muslim.

Here's the full text of the bill. Point out the "bad stuff".

Conservatives only concern themselves with fiscal responsibility, when democrats are in office.

Otherwise, they're no different in the amount they spend.

They just spend it in different places.

Amen, Brother
