The political label most frequently associated with conservatives today is “extreme radical right wingers”. We are compared to Nazis, but if the name-callers were at all intelligent, they would realize that Nazis are really leftists. Nazi is an abbreviation for National Socialist German Workers Party. Fascists are also leftists because they believe the state is all-powerful and are uncompromising in their ideology.
I like many others in this country believe in the following: God, our spouses (if you have one), country, guns, small government, and personal responsibility. We believe that churches should help take care of the elderly, widows, and the orphans, as commanded by the Word of God. We believe that our rights come from our Creator, NOT government! We believe in the rule of LAW, not the rule of men. We believe in LIMITED government, not a nanny state. We believe in absolute MINIMAL intrusion into the personal lives of our citizens. We believe in free and FAIR markets and enterprise. We believe in a tax code that is fair and equitable for EVERYONE. We believe that questions of moral conduct are for churches to decide, NOT the government!
We believe that education should be controlled at the STATE level. The control of the curriculum, salaries, and personnel are best handled by the people who are closest to the situation: the parents and taxpayers. We believe that local taxpayers and their representatives (school board members, city, county commissioners, and county executives) are better equipped to deal with local problems than bureaucrats in faraway Washington D.C. We believe that teachers should be rewarded based on performance, NOT seniority!
We conservatives believe in minimal, necessary regulations for business and industry. We do not believe in “corporate welfare”. We believe in enforcing our immigration laws for EVERYONE. We do not believe in sanctuary cities or harboring law breakers of any kind unless it involves political asylum. We believe in secure and protected borders. We believe in backing up our border patrol agents with all the resources necessary to maintain a safe and secure border.
We conservatives do believe in people running for higher office PROVING their eligibility BEFORE they are allowed to enter elections in which individuals are given high security clearances. We believe in our elected officials following the laws that they enact, such as presenting a budget EVERY year. (Can you hear me, Harry Reid?) We believe in term limits for all elected officials. We believe in the impeachment process to get rid of officials, judges included, who decide to put themselves above the law or exceed the power of their office.
Lastly, we believe that our Creator has a prominent and distinguished place in our country, and those offended by His presence are free to move elsewhere (but should NOT be given the right to decide for the majority in this country.) We demand that our military and the defense of this country and our allies remain a PRIORITY for the government. We demand that our Constitution, and all legally ratified amendments, be respected and adhered to when legislation is proposed.
Conservatives are God fearing, country- and gun-loving citizens who are charitable, rational citizens of the greatest country on earth. Unlike our loudest detractors, we respect our fellow citizens, our rights, and our liberties. We believe in EQUAL opportunities, NOT equal outcomes. We believe in morality, NOT moral relativism! In other words, our ideology is becoming the mainstream of thought. America’s decline is because of “PROGRESSIVE” thinking and ideology. It’s time we went back to what worked for this country, despite what the President says about going backwards. There are a lot of other reasons for a lot of citizens becoming more conservative every day, and I probably missed a whole bunch, but they are just as important as those that I mentioned. I will debate my positions with anyone, anytime, and with an open mind. Being on the “right” side of an argument is always a winning position. Adeiu.

Did not know what i was, stil don’t but this post makes a lot of sense. I am against anything the bammy crats are doing , especially the 718 million he stole from medicare.
Hey Smith, Be an Independent. As far as I am concerned neither Party is worth their salt. They are more interested in digging up dirt, blaming the other Party, and what is in their best interest instead of doing what is best for we the people and OUR Country!
Michael Nellett: Thank you for your post…… We have a long road to walk, even if we do get Pres. Obama out of the White House….. I would hope that should Romney and Ryan get in that they would push for a real investigation into Obama birth records and if it is found he wasn’t qualified to be the president that treason charges would be filed not only against him but also several others like Polosi and Reid to start with…..
Agree with most of the article, even though I classify myself as an Independent, as there are parts of both parties that I agree with and parts I disagree with.
The part of the article I have the biggest problem with is
“Lastly, we believe that our Creator has a prominent and distinguished place in our country, and those offended by His presence are free to move elsewhere (but should NOT be given the right to decide for the majority in this country.)”
Freedom of religion was put in the constitution to prevent one religion from dictating what everyone else believed. If someone wants to believe in an the christian deity, they are allowed to. If someone wants to believe in fairies and leprechauns, they are equally allowed to. If someone chooses to not believe in any religion, they are also allowed to. No one should be pressured to conform to a religion they do not believe in. They can be encouraged to believe in a certain religion, but if they choose not to, they should not be punished or pushed out for exercising their free will.
This is why we have a separation of church and state; So a majority religion cannot create laws that punish those that believe in a different religion, or none at all.
There is no ‘seperation of church and state’. That was a phrase in a letter from Thos Jefferson (Jefferson was in Paris when the Constitution was written). The First Amendment freedom-of-religion clause applied only to the federal Govt. States were free to, and some did, establish official state religions. Blasphemy against the Christian religion was a Common Law crime throughout the colonies/States before and after the Constitution was ratified. Whether each was a believer or not, none of the Founders believed that any society could survive without religion; especially since none ever had in all of recorded history (the USSR did last almost 70 years; killing 40-50 million people to do so).
As I have posted and commented many times I believe there are too many people who have been bought, bribed, blackmailed, threatened or their loved ones threatened and more on the list. If this statement is not true this illegal, phony, lying, foreign national, Muslim POTUS would not be in office.
I think BHO will remain in office until his big money string pulling puppet masters are finished with him. Then he will somehow be eliminated.
Remember when BHO said: “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.”
Maybe this civilian national security force he is talking about will be the New Black Panthers, the Muslim Brotherhood, the people in the terrorist training camps here in the US, along with about 100,000 Bolsheviks, the illegals who are here plus the ones who would storm across the border to join in so they could put us gringos in our place to get their land back along with anyone else who wants to see the fall of the US.

I believe your comment about the civilian national security force is a very real possibility… We know by his pass reactions that Pres. Obama is as racist as they come, so your thoughts of the black panthers certainly does make sense to me.
We hear many talking about praying for God’s intervention, but prayer does not necessarily indicate a spiritual relationship with God. Many today will pray seeking aid or help only when the storms come into their lives, but they have no desires to read His WORD or to seek to learn the desires that God has for their lives.
I have to ask, why should God answer all of these prayers for intervention when the vast majority in this nation have no desire to serve God or to walk in His ways. I know God’s hand was on our forefathers has they laid the foundations of our government to have been able to overcome the obstacles that they did.
God will answer our prayers, but most of the time it will not be the answer that we want or when we want….. God has given America His Judgment for our sin…. True not all of us are guilty of the sins of unbelief, abortion or homosexuality but our government and the vast majority are guilty of supporting these abominations against God’s WORD. Thus the consequences of these sins are inherited by all who live in America, since His judgment is clear that America’s destruction has been made clear to those who seek Him.
To read God’s judgment for America’s future or lack thereof, google: “The Message For America, Hand of Help Ministries.” To read how I was led to this, google: ” Watchman On The Wall, America ~ Mystery Babylon? ” To read the message of 2nd major terrorist attack, google; “The Eagle and the Serpents, Hand of Help.” And for again, what I believe will be the location of the 2nd attack, google: “Watchman On The Wall, The Eagle and the Serpents (Part 2).
The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left. Ecc. 10:2 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction. Prov. 1:7
Man’s so called wisdom in thinking he knows all that there is to be known has always amazed me. True wisdom is gained from what man has experienced in life and comes from the One Sovereign God. There is nothing in this life that man can say for a certainty, unless he has seen, or experienced directly or indirectly that which pertains to his statements, beliefs, or faith. In other words, for man to say, “I know God does not exist,” just because he personally has not experienced a life changing event is nothing less than pure ignorance.
One revelation from God is worth far more than the knowledge gained from all the books in the world written by men who have no understanding or comprehension of the absolute truth of God’s WORD.
My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments. Colossians 2:2-4
Communist come in all stripes and colors, you can call them most anything, progressives, Deemers, socialist, leftist, marxist, nazis, stalinist and even cult islamics whos like to claim their belief is religious but their shariah law of intolerance is a dead give away that this cult is a refuge for criminals, thuggs, murderers and terrorist.
The idea that these falsehoods can live in a framework of real democratic government is another lie. Intolerance is just what it is it is inflexible and is served best by flawed belief, dictators and despots. There is no room for the pusuit of happiness or mankind to become it’s best under inalienable rights by God because submission to a flawed cult is all there is……
I agree with stricter gun control! I believe that a law needs to be enacted! This law shall read as such!
“Every Native Born American citizen is obligated and has the right to purchase any weapon that is available on the public market! No individual citizen shall be forced to act upon these rights and can turn down these rights at any time! The quantity of weapons stock piling by any individual citizen shall not be inhibited unless it is determine that it is for purposes that are to be carried out against the public’s inhabitants! Every individual citizen is entitled and obligated to receive training that will be provided by the government. This training will be provided during the freshmen year of schooling! At the successful completion of this course, a single handgun with a single case of rounds will be issued and paid for by the government, to each citizen who is then liable for the care and possession of that weapon! Every citizen 18yrs or older are encouraged to apply for a concealed weapons permit and to maintain possession of a hand gun at all times! Training for the concealed weapon permit will be provided in the senior year of schooling as the permit can be attained on the day of their 18th birthday! All training shall cover safety, proper use and care for their weapon, legal condition and times when a weapon may and may not be used, and all legal consequences for the misuse of this right! Any citizen that is undergoing mental health treatment for illnesses associated with mental instability or is to receive medication that may cause mental instability will forfeit their weapons until such time that the patient is deemed as no threat and determined to be completely and fully mentally stable and safe to regain possession of their weapons! No charges shall incurred by these patients for the storage, care, security and handling of their weapons while receiving treatment! Any individual citizen who has been convicted of any violent crime, including but not limited to domestic violence, will forfeit their legal rights to bear arms! No Naturalized Citizen will be eligible for possession of any form of weaponry! No weapon shall be seized by any government representative unless misuse or abuse has been verified as set forth in the training stipulations! Any government representative, who fails to abide by this law, shall forfeit their right to bear arms and will forfeit their position as a government representative! This law shall be enacted and set in place to ensure every American their right as stated in the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution! This law shall be enacted and set in place to ensure every citizen the right of self-defense! This law shall be enacted and set in place to defend and protect our fellow humans and property! This law shall be enacted and set in place to equalize the forces of the American citizenry and the public service group known as “The Government” forces in order to allow for the defense of the public in the case where the government turns against the public in part or in whole of this country! This law shall be enacted and set in place to provide for security in the home, businesses and public locations within the borders of the United States! No government representative, agency, group, board or body has the right to infringe upon this law in any way including executive order! This law shall be enacted and set in place to ensure all Americans the ability to defend this country from invasion or attack by internal or external enemy forces that would act against the sovereignty and freedoms of these United States of America!” Get a legislator to write this up in a bill and get it passed now! Give every citizen a gun and see how many arrogant, stupid, or wacked out individuals will have the gall to attack people anywhere for any reason! The only reason they will act against under these conditions is if they wish to die! In that case, American’s will be happy to oblige!
This is real gun control! Guns in the hands of every American with the ability to control their own action and provide discouragement of the lawless! Any other method allows the lawless to be the only holders of illegal weapons that they will use against the law abiding!
