Chris, I appreciate your response and very kind words. But let's face it...I'm not the person to carry the banner of Conservatism here. I just don't have the desire or the stomach to defend many aspects of modern Conservatism. I'm 3/4 traditionalist, and 1/4 progressive. It's not always an easy line to walk.

And Kwicko, when you coming to Fort Lauderdale to have that beer with me?

Yeah, but is there anyone else here with a conservative bent, even if not 100%, who isn't a nutter?

Who would you recommend as the voice of conservatives? Heck, you not wanting the gig might make you the best choice.

I think part of the problem is shoeboxing someone as " a conservative "


you can be a " they can do no wrong " even if you prove it ass like Rappy...


or you can support some of the ideas conservatives have that do have merit,

fiscal conservatives have a huge place, as they are usually the ones who pose the questions, look at this program, is that pricetag worth the result...

or when questions about individual rights vs group rights come up some very important points are made.


But the entire right side of the political spectrum has been hijacked by people pushing a non progressive... even a non conservative ( in the traditional sense ) position.


I think it is positive some conservatives are stepping away from this, as it probably doesn't represent their views honestly anyway.

After all, with the recent Republican Presidents..

lets say Reagan, Bush, and Bush Redux

has any of the above really been about ( other than in their talking points ) smaller government, or personal freedoms, or responsible representation....

I actually feel that I've become quite Conservative in many of my views in the last few years, it's when I talk to jokers like RAPdog that I feel Liberal.

No, not originally posted by me.

Cloned, t'was I. Ahh yes, if first the childish attempts to silence me fail, try what ever you can.

What next... ring and run my front door ? late night calls to my home, followed by girlish giggles and hanging up the phone ?

Wow.... as Riddick would say

" Petty, Tombs.

Very petty. "



Bones: "Don't 'rawr' her!"

"Cloned"... HOW?


I'm actually with Rappy on this one. Hit "Reply with quote" on that response, and the username comes up AURAPTOR, all caps. Hit "Reply with quote" on Rappy's posts, and it comes up AURaptor.

But as a pre-emptive strike, I tried to register KWICKO (all caps) and kwicko (all lowers), and it tells me those are already taken. For the record, I'm Kwicko - upper AND lower.

But the board only shows usernames in all caps, and the way the user himself (or herself; we don't judge) capitalizes only comes up if you reply with quote, or on the front of the forums page for most recent users.

Weird. And more than a little troubling.

Oh, and the user AURAPTOR only registered today.

I'm not down with this.
