I never preach what I AM NOT. I am fiercely independant in personal matters (check out numerous comments on gun control) and a, left of Bernie Sanders and my neighbors in New Hampshire, socialist in economic matters.
Just as I do not trust politicians with government I also do not trust businessmen with an economy. The businessmen will push the politicians into a tyranny to supress competition. As they have partially accomplished during the administrations since Reagun.
that's not the platform. everyone is about money, including democrats. look at how much the greedy democrats give to charity. they are generous with everyone else's money, just not their own. the real republicans are about personal responsibility and getting government out of the way. there are probably 3 real republicans in washington right now.

politicians are businessmen. they all tend to work together for the common destruction of the country. over regulation destroyed health care and made it expensive, now we turn to the government for the answer. please.

Everytime the conservatives screw up you guys say they aren't "real" conservatives.
I have to pay high taxes too.
Republicans claim to back personal responsibility yet also back corporations, organizations expressly meant to evade personal responsibilty. I think Republicans believe in personal responsibility for the other guy and the gravy train for themselves.
Which is OK, I'm certainly for the gravy train for me but I'll come clean about it, I don't claim I'm doing some public benefit by looking out for #1.
when is the last time a conservative screwed up? are you not recognizing the difference between conservatism, and a christian conservative? HUGE difference. I support a flat tax or a consumption tax. I like the idea of a consumption tax because it scares the living crap out of the government.
