Yes that is what a real conservatives do.

BTW, if people haven't figured out yet; I consider myself a SOCIALIST. so I picked liberal. Still fiscally very much a conservative though. Maybe this is why I just can't see myself spending mucho buckaroos for a brand new bike. Even though I really want one. There are lot of other things I would like to have but don't. I read alot, no time for TV. Again can't justify even a $700 flat screen TV or any TV for that matter. And my car, I'm hoping it can make it to around 300,000 mile mark. Then I'll get a decent car like the Honda FIT. People here have been saying nice things about it so...

And why a SOCIALIST?? Well I believe in universal health care, unemployment insurance and payment, welfare for the needy, care for the elderly social security, medicare... Care for our soldiers and THEIR families (I find it totally revolting that many of the enlisted families have to live below the poverty line). These are values I hold dearly. And all the other values where we care about welfare of others. This to me is a SOCIALIST. It may not be popular and I don't argue with others. This is just me.

I respect what others believe and of their intelligence (with exception of Idi Amin Dada, PolPot..), so all I ask is to respect my belief and my intelligence. And I sincerely hope, I didn't insult anyone.
