Hello all

I'm a conservative who lean's toward the constitution party.When I say that I mostly mean as far as the limit's on government power.(on religion I think the acutal constitution party goes a bit far) I once thought of myself as a libertarian till I found out about their open border stance.
While Im usually considered a conservative I am NOT a Bush supporter and I will over the next few month's hopefully be demonstrating to all why.
To mention a few reason's why... Illegal immigration,LOST sea treaty ( a complete UN program) CAFTA which lead's to the FTAA (both again fully supported by the UN and Bush).Then their's his so called stance on gunright's which quickly folded as I'm sure all know that he stated he would renew the so called 'AW' ban if it reached his desk.
The Patriot ACt, and now many provision's in the REAL ID act which I think was a bigger push toward a national ID than having anything to do with fighting illegal immigration.
Also my main non-mainstream conservative view is the whole Iraq fiasco.I was originally taught that most conservative's support the constitution.Under the constitution only congress can declare war not the President.Worst case scenario we should have pulled out the day Sadaam was arrrested.Im also opposed to our troop's being used as world police/UN peace keeper's.I'll try not to get into his support of the chi-com's...oh and his spending NOT very conservative IMO.

that about cover's it.

I guess I'll tell y'all a little about me.

I'm what I call an ultra-conservative Baptist from North Carolina. I'm not a racist in any way, but I love the South and think the South was right and should have won the War of Northern Aggression. I am in favor of the second amendment. I am strongly opposed to gay marriage and all homosexuality, premarital sex, and the distribution of condoms in schools and churches. I am in favor of using the military to solve disputes if necessary. After graduating from high school and joining the Marines I would love to either play for the Carolina Panthers or Dallas Cowboys. If not, I would like a military or political career. (whew!)

I am Pale Rider. Conservative but not a member of any political party. I have been posting around the internet since a basic membership with AOL was 5 hours a month.

Agent007 · Jun 11, 2005, 09:46 pm

As you may be able to tell from my radical postings on one of my heroes, John Paul the Great, I am a Roman Catholic who follows all of the guidelines set by the Church (as long as I have heard of them). I am relatively young student, a "magical thinker," "unrealistic," a male, good-looking, and cultured; I also write newspaper articles and have a small head just as is shown in my picture. I think I left something out in my arrogantly concise and probably useless explanation of myself, so if you want more information, ask me specific questions. By the way, I never try to be offensive, and the comments on my being a "magical thinker" and "unrealistic" are simply quotes from offensive persons who I have encountered in the past.

Matrixxx · Jul 10, 2005, 08:44 pm

I am Matrixxx. Wholey unpopular, hope to make a change yet I understand that realisitcally, I probably won't make any difference at all. But that is ok because even if I get banned I am one step ahead of the blind deaf and dumb of the liberal variety. They can see, hear and think, they just suck at it.

Caduceus · Aug 9, 2005, 11:38 am

I'm Sean, I'm a 19 year old college sophomore (poli sci major). I do some stuff for various conservative causes -- I'm research director for the Caucus for Conservative Action and am working on a book on how nationalism can save the Republican Party. I voted for Peroutka last election because Bush is a sell-out. I wanted to join the military because I come from a long, long line of Navy men, though I'm apparently disqualified from service because of a long medical history (Tourette's, IBS, restless leg, insomnia, etc., plus I can't swim and am terrified of water). Other than that, I'm pretty standard: I like reading, writing, and video games.

Mia · Sep 18, 2005, 05:47 am

Yeah, being scared of water could be a problem in the navy....welcome aboard here, though!

njlemire87 · Sep 18, 2005, 08:14 pm

Hello all,
I am a christian, particularly Baptist. I am a Republican, and I have just recently started a new chapter of the college republicans at my school in Maine. I am an Eagle scout and I also hold publicly elected office in my town on our budget commitee. Oh yeah, I am only 18. I am active and enthusiastic and look forward to getting to know people.

rcne · Sep 18, 2005, 09:08 pm

Glad to see you made it in after all my unintentional delays.

dthmstr254 · Sep 26, 2005, 03:46 pm

my name is Billy. I am a freshman at Tennessee Temple University, majoring in pre-law. my major interests are in creative writing, philosophy, society issues, and World War 2. I am a blood-bought Christian (as my pastor calls it) in the Independent Baptist denomination. My hometown is Jacksonville, FL. My little quirk is that my accent is a mix of my pastor from Alabama and my youth pastor from Michigan, making me enunciate while still preserving the southern "draw".
my major issue with politics right now, even though I am a Bush supporter, is the length of time that it is taking us to make Iraq a safe place for Iraqis to live and pulling out. I still think they need to be there at the time, but they need to pick up the pace a little. Suddam needed to go, it just had to happen.

rcne · Sep 26, 2005, 04:00 pm

Welcome, I again apologize for taking so long to get these details of membership worked out.

deedee · Sep 27, 2005, 01:53 pm

Hi all!

I'm DeeDee, pleasant meeting you all. I'm a former Air Force Veteran -- I served 'active duty' between 1991 - 1995 (during the first Gulf War).

I am an entrepreneur, I own a coffee shop in the midwest which I hope it turns into a regional licensed chain. Through my coffee shop, I am learning at a fast rate........liberal thinking. It seems like I am becoming more understanding of some atheist thinking, but not fully. I have studied other philosophies and ideologies and it is something that I love to discuss (not necessarily debate) philosophical differences.

I love politics....in fact I am part of a political website, I am passionate about helping others. I am in my early 30's and I feel like I have a lot more to learn in this life.

I suppose you can call me a 'moderate' conservative. I really look up to Ronald Reagan.....he was a conservative with liberal tendencies, i.e., "Berlin Wall".

Peace and love to all of y'all.

deedee · Sep 27, 2005, 01:54 pm

oh. i almost forgot.....i think i'm turning into a serious neo-con. [insert scared smiley here] lol!

rcne · Sep 27, 2005, 02:35 pm

Welcome to the group deedee. I'm also a moderate in most things. I just happen to think conservative offers the best chance for free enterprise, which means freedom to control your own destiny.

Hello. I'm a middle twenties father. I like to chop wood and work on my race car, read books, play guitar. I follow the news closely. Am a history buff. Want to thank rcne for letting me join up. I'm a registered Republican. That's because I read the party platforms and picked Repub when I was 18. I am a conservative. You'll find that I don't agree with the current administration. I am a 9/11 skeptic.

rcne · Nov 17, 2005, 05:48 pm

Hello Clarence, I registered as a Republican at 18. I still believe in the principles of conservatism, but the politicians keep messing it up :)

I have my ups and downs with this administration, now I hope the administration is turning it around and will return to the moderate center of conservatism.
