I"m not going to read a partisan liberal smear piece.

Your party is the one who thinks is raaaaaaaaaaacist to criticize radical islamic terrorism. How can you then try to link conservatives with those nations.

How can pro-ISrael conservatives be more like those people than the anti-Israel left in this country? Most Democrats are on the side of Hamas and Hezbelloah in the Israel-Palestinian conflict.

Also, don't most poor AMericans vote Democrat? You are the party of more government benefits and welfare right? So your party is only people who make a lot of money?

So with all of those government handouts, your party has been unable to attract any poor voters?

Does GOP do well in the poor urban areas of Detroit, Baltimore, Chicago, etc? Do you consider those prosperous areas?

That you resort to calling "World Population Review" a "liberal smear piece" goes to show how weak and desperate your argument is.

When the US has taken an occasional rightward deviation from this path, the American liberal has plenty of other countries they can claim they can go to if things got really bad: Canada, of course, being the foremost, but pretty much anywhere in Western Europe, and even New Zealand and Australia are typically considered just fine by American liberal standards.

But if the US got too liberal for American conservatives, where shall they go? What is the conservative's equivalent of Canada? Or New Zealand? Or the UK? Or Germany?

It just so happens that the following website has a nifty ranking of the most conservative nations in the world.

Most Conservative Countries 2019


Sounds about right? I think that's a good description of what conservatives value.

Given those criteria, this website has devised the following list of countries which best satisfy those benchmarks. Here is the list:

Yemen
Mali
Iran
Pakistan
Chad
Egypt
Saudi Arabia
Lebanon
Swaziland
Ethiopia

For those conservatives unwilling or too lazy to learn a new language, I believe English is widely spoken in Swaziland. And Pakistan, too. Not sure about the others.

So, we now have a list of countries conservatives can flee to if they feel the US is becoming too liberal.

Enjoy.
For those people like James Bond 007 who are unwilling to care bout the truth because they have a twisted agenda and are too lazy to learn what conservatives beliefs are, A conservative believes in small government, especially at the Federal level.

I have a better idea, why don't you list all the progressive policy that have worked? You won't but that's because big governmenr has always been a failure.

When they claim conservatives are against 'innovation' and link conservatism to Muslim theocracies , yeah, I think is safe to say it is a partisan liberal website.

You won't even acknowledge that your party could not win elections in this country without poor people yet you try to associate conservatism with poverty. You have some pretzel logic.

Which is exactly what all the countries in that list have ... as I've pointed out multiple times now.

If you believe big government has always been a failure, Chad, which has an extremely limited government, sounds like your kind of place!

I would think the poverty in urban Detroit is the most like the poverty in those middle eastern countries. GOP would be amazed if we got even 1 vote in urban Detroit.

He thinks countries like Sauda Arabia and Iran have small government.

What an amazing political science analyst he is.

Oh geeze, I mean, seriously ... if it makes you happy.

Social Security
The Interstate Highway act
Medicare
Medicaid
Every single clean air and clean water act passed since at least the 1950's
Endangered species act

And ... really there are so many I wouldn't even know where to stop!
