You sound like a very conservative person to me. If you knew anything you'd know that most educated minorities and people of color do not want to be seen as having no color. They want to be seen for what they are a person of color who bring their own interesting culture and heritage to the United States. Let's get educated here.

My father was not saved until after his marriage to mama.
We were like "The Waltons".
I did. Not strip clubs though, those people are just to racy for my taste.
No porn from them and neither from me. If I want to see naked I can look in the mirror unclothed. I don't look bad either, if I don't mind saying so and I don't.
My brother.
We didn't know any to bring home, but I did have classmates and we were color blind.
No pot smoking. I got sent to a Christian school. And guess what I found. ha.
Heavy Metal, the movie. My folks though, country 60s and 70s. Ray Price, is that his name? and more, but I'm having a brain fog to name all the names.

We were raised that way, but we the children didn't turn out that way...so again, put 10 people in a boat and determine, do they all have the same ideals? NO, they don't and they won't.

This is an attempt to have people believe they do thereby discrediting an entire group based on some. And that's just not right. Makes me wonder, what are they up to, really.

However, my point is that you can't call yourself a liberal Democrat unless you are truly liberal. You have to walk the walk. If you live a lifestyle that is virtually the same as a conservative Republican then what good is it to have different labels? You look like a hypocrite.
ok, now you are making sense
So, politically speaking... these conservative democrats have an identity crisis. I think that the parties have changed so much in the past 25-30 years that people don't even know what is going on anymore. To me it's simple.
democrat = liberal
republican = conservative

In my experiences political leanings of today represent:

Democrat = conservative who is tolerant of other people at times when it satisfies their needs or wants. Humor ethnic, racial, and gay minorities by being insincerely friendly or tolerant when you have no desire to support their causes. Perhaps a lot of people do have an identity crisis problem.

Conservative = classism based on religious background, money, and white color of skin.

Artsyguy, you should stop smoking pot, it's clouding your thinking of you think being a conservative Republican is also being a racist.

Aren't you the pot smoker?
I've never done an intoxicant in my life. So stop with the accusations now.
A conservative Republican is very much about classism in favor of whites.

you seem to have a hangup with race. Your assessments don't add up. Either you are a conservative or you are not. The conservatives i have met do not discriminate based on race. They will vote against both Obama and Harry Reid.

It's not like they are going to discuss white privilege and white supremacy out in the open. http://www.timwise.org/

Sometimes its not upbringing. Sometimes you're just weird because, WELL YOU'RE JUST WEIRD.
