#neverliberal #nevermarxist
Joined tonight...figuring it out.
I wanted to join and introduce myself to fellow conservatives. My name is Matt. I am a proud conservative. I am not really so much a Reagan conservative (I have doubts about "supply-side" economics, for instance) but an independent conservative. I used to be a progressive although I could never stand people like Bill Clinton or Nancy Pelosi. I am in favor of free-market enterprise, limited government, the Fair Tax (although I am open to a flat tax or a "head tax"). I am undecided on the abortion issue as of now. I have traditionally been prochoice but I find myself a moderate.Several founding fathers of our great nation were religious liberals. I have in mind Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, and others. Like them, I am a religious liberal (a Unitarian Universalist; I am an agnostic who leans slightly towards deism). I am probably one of the few UUs who is also a conservative (I might be considered a neoconservative considering that I favor a peace-through-strength approach to foreign policy).I am a 35 year old guy from California who loves his country, is proud of our military and law enforcement, and wants a society that is more responsible than "compassionate" (hence one reason I am a conservative).
Welcome Mathew, stick around, we may open yours eyes a bit further.Solar
He is not 40 yet. With age comes wisdom, he has time to see the light yet. Pull up a chair Matt and enjoy the fire. Welcome
Welcome to Conservative Political Forum. This is a place you can tell us about yourself if you wish. Please remember safety first at all times. The net is not a place to give out private information. Gender, age and state would be safe. Even a very large city. Pass all other information by PM or E-Mail only if and when you feel very safe about it. I am walkstall as I use this aka on more the one board. On this board I am just call walks. Male, Washington State, Age hmmm.. lol I remember the big bang, if that will help. Some of us go back 10 or more years with each other from other boards. We hope you enjoy yourself.
My name is the outlaw mortarman. I live in Sparta, WI. I served in the US Army from '76-'80 in Germany. Up until this last September I worked at the PX at Ft. McCoy as a cashier. It was a great job. I got to interact with real American heroes. I got laid off in September because the Sequester finally caught up with us. Also there was the impending shutdown to contend with. So now I am looking for a new job. Yes I am drawing unemployment, butt no more than I am allotted an' also consider that I had worked for the past 2 1/2 years an' earned it. It is called unemployment insurance an' is there for this sort of thing. Also about myself. I am 57 years old an' an Atheist. Now before you get your hackles up, I am a true Atheist an' not one of those libtard Faux-Atheists who want's to replace religion with the gubmint. Unlike the President, I am not lying when I say that if you like your religion, you can keep it. Period. I prolly will lay out my philosophy as far as religion goes at a later time, butt suffice to say, I do believe that Faux-Atheism is trying to rid us of religion because the followers of this false philosophy are immoral an' true religions challenge that. I think that's enough for now. I will get to know you an' you will get to know me.
Hello. This is my first post here. I guess at this point of my life I have become more of a political mutt with strong leanings toward conservatism. Meaning that I don't fit the mold of what passes as conservative today. I am fiscally and socially conservative with a heavy leaning toward state rights. I am also pro labor union as I believe everyone should have a say in what goes on in his or her workplace and for keeping it as local as possible without all the democrat back scratching. I believe in America first trade policies and am not for any kind of policy that drives down America's standard of living. I am not pro amnesty whatsoever. So with these things said, hello again and I look forward to civil discussion.
Welcome Outlaw.You have it dialed in, Conservatives don't care what another belief system one entails, or sex they prefer, as long as they leave others alone.
