Thank you so much for clarifing some of the misconceptions associated with conservatisum. I agree with you whole heartedly. I wish I could have explained these issues as you have maybe I would have been spared the insults hurled at me – conservatives said I didn’t know what I was talking about and that I am not a TRUE conservative and the liberals tell me I’ve been brain washed by the left. At least I have a clean and honest brain. Thanks for all the time, effort and thought that you have put forth.
Sincerely, C. Wallace

Excellent post on some often misunderstood terms. Interestingly enough, “Libertarians” should agree with Democratic politics on two out of three major realms of public policy: foreign policy and social policy. The third is economic policy, and it has been suggested that although technically they should vote democratic, libertarians generally vote republican because–well, because the wallet is more important than anything else. I will take issue with one of your premises: if marriage “has become of paramount importance to our society” why do half of all marriages end in divorce?

True conservatives are a part of the Democratic party now. The Republican party is comprised of radical right-wingers and religious nuts.
