Caregirl. You're Conservative.
Are you merely a product of your parent's will, or conservative on religious grounds?
Why such ignorant hate, too?
How does gay marriage effect you?
Why is helping others a bad thing, in any respect?
Thank you for your time.

I'm a Republican ... and?
What does being a Republican have to do with any of those questions?
Stereotyping 4 teh win!
The only question that seems even close to being relevant is the gay marriage question, but how does it effect me? I'm not gay so it doesn't, but that doesn't mean I'm not intitled to my own opinion.

Well, I am just interested in whether or not you are "old-guard" Republican, with the beliefs that such identity entails, or one of the new rush of conservatives that have usurped the party.

Honestly, I'm 20. I'm new to even being in the Republican party. I am just very against abortion, and that is where a lot of my loyalties lie. I can't stand girls who get pregnant and just waste a life. Like they have the right to take life away from innocent human beings. And there are so many couples that just wish they could even have children. It just seems like senseless man slaughter to me.
I am also not a fan of people draining off the government. You see women having 4,5, even six kids before their 30 and wanting the government to pay for it. I think if people are really in need, that's fine, but people who are just too lazy to do things for themselves shouldn't be helped. Now if they are on medicare and go to the clincs for birth control and medical care, but they are in school trying to make something of themselves so that they won't be a drain off the government that's different. That's commendable.
There are other reasons, but I don't feel like going into everything at the moment. But as to whether I'm "old-guard" or "new rush" well I think I'm neither. I am my own person, and I think that voting for people and not for ticket is what's most important anyway. I could honestly be on any ticket (Democrat, Republican, or Independant), I just vote for who I think is the best candidate not to mention the better person.

Caregirl....don't peg yourself into a slot that if you stay there won't allow yourself to learn to think for yourself. A political party shouldn't be like cheering for a football team that you cheer along, because you belong to their fan club - it's a trap that many fall into.
If you really want to think for yourself...go Independent - or vote either Democrat or Republican depending upon how balanced the candidate is...not just the party line.
Repbulicans right now are taking away more of our rights and warping what freedom of religion should be about....it's a bad for of our country.
Democrats...are as you mentioned...not willing to let people figure out how to take care of them selves.
If someone had to plug me into one of those 2 choices...where would I fit?
I believe in gay marriage (democrate?)
I believe in abortion when rape, or medical reasons are involved (some democrates and some republicans believe the same thing)
I'm an athiest -- therefore, according to the Republicans...anti-American/democrate/satan worshiper/libral.
I believe in the death penalty...so gee, I must be Republican
I believe in the right to bear arms - I will never give up my handgun or rifles.
I believe in the right to die...that when people are in their last weeks of fighting cancer or what ever, they should be allowed, if they wish to speed up the process. (The Republicans don't like this...so I must be a democrate)
I also believe in allowing people in pain to have legal access to marijuana. (flaming libral here...)
I believe our natural resources should be conserved but not totally locked away. Mining, drilling and such should be allowed, but also strict clean up and protection methods should be observed during and afterwards
I believe that there are some people do need welfare...and would freely wish my tax dollars to go to them, if the government would do a better job of seeing those monies got to those who Really deserve it.
I don't believe in torturing someone for information
I believe in corporal punishment - as long as it causes no lasting harm, and leaves a person without scars, or missing limbs. That for a crime an 'x - number' amount of whacks from a cane would cure a lot of problems in this country - especially with juvenile delequents. I don't believe this to be torture, because it's a set limit applied and a person would know what to expect if caught at a crime that says has a penalty of 20 lashes with a cane.
I believe the Minimum raise should be raised...and by a good amount. (so does that make me a Democrat again?)
All I'm saying....is Think For Yourself...Don't fall into some 'Party Line'...and become another square peg in a square hole. Go with the candidate that you feel is closest to your personal beliefs...not just because they are from one party or another.

My advice to you, Caregirl (such as it is), is not to associate yourself too strongly with either party before you understand what's going on in the party and their stances on issues that are not quite as "hot-button" as things such as abortion. Vote Republican, by all means, but don't become attached to a party without a good deal of knowledge of the party because it makes it too easy to stop thinking and just relegate politics to some "good vs evil" fight for dominance.
Not trying to be condescending unless, of course, you like that kind of thing.

Fuck the abortion debate. Kill the unwanted foetus, save it from a life of misery, and spend the stem cells on something useful, like building a new shaky's pizza.
Limit shouldn't be lowering himself to such standards.
Caregirl wouldn't be anti abortion if she was pregnant.
Stormy wastes her time writing rediculously long posts that nobody reads.
Smapdey's on the money. Why bother voting if the only groups to choose from are a bunch of conservative radicals, or hippies. Either one is a loss.

Republicans want to save the lives of unborn, uneducated, untrained, zero investment babies, because its "morally" (still not sure how you get morals from Christianity) correct. Then they send highly trained, valuble personnel into a pointless war where they inevitably get killed. Republicans make less sense than the Chewbacca defense. Maybe thats why they're in power... Its so confusing, they must be right? Surely?

Trumped? Hardly. Just cause I don't feel like taking the time to explain my views on war, so I make a joke means I was trumped? Thanks for the insight, next time I try to make what I think is a joke, I'll consult you so that I will know the difference. Maybe my humor is just misconstrued.
I don't really think the war we are in now is the right thing, but it's hard to form an opinion about things like that these days cause all the media is bullshit. They tell you what "is popular", what they think everyone is siding with. If the media stations were to come out and say "O the war is really justified because those countries were a threat" they would be crucified. If the other countries were really a threat, ok then. But who really knows if they were or not? Who really knows if they did or did not have all the weapons that weren't found? The only one that really knows that is Bush, and like he's gonna tell if he made a mistake cause the troops are already there. Just because the other countries are shit doesn't mean we should go and "help them out", even though it seems like a humane cause it's costing us a lot of soliders. So maybe if I had ALL the facts from an unbiased, all knowing being I would form an opinion cause I would honestly feel like I knew the truth. But since I don't, all I can say is the war doesn't seem to be helping us out any. It's made our terrorist problems worse, it's killing lives, it's made all the other countries think we are trying to "take over", basically it's just been bad all around.
But I will say one thing, whether or not the cause is just, our people (fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, neighbors, and friends) are over there. And I think they are brave, commendable people, and I back them 100% even if I don't back the reason they are there.
Lehesu: It's not that I don't care about the "hot button" issues, I just don't really have the time to sit here and explain everything that half of it won't even be looked at. I have shit to do, like right now I should be studying for a test in British Lit. The only reason I've been on here so much in the last week is cause I've been sick and haven't gone to school or work. But as to not caring about the history, I don't think knowing the history has much to do with the people that are representing the Republican party now in my town and my county. Like I said I vote people and issues, not party, but I did state that my main priorities lie within getting rid of abortion, which is a Republican stance. Which comes back to my whole point entirely, why spend all this time posting shit people aren't even going to really read?

I think Abortion is a good thing, Think about it.
here are two examples of why.
Rape. If a woman is raped, should she sufer for the rest of her life with a child that will only bring back memories of the attack [though yes, this may not be the case in some area's but if you yourself was rapped, like say.... Farsimon raped DL, would DL really want to have such an ugly love child? no.]
and secondly
People who cant cope. Id rather have the child exterminated in a clean and painless way, as opposed to, i dont know, lets say, being attacked by a coat hanger in the womb or even the possiblility of being run through the garbage disposal.
All in all youv got to think about the all sides of the story, i mean seriously, would you want the world overun with Farsimon's and DL's love children?.
We all know the answer.
Its yes. yes we do indeed.
oh and as to political parties, iv got a great idea, since where making fun of people because of who they vote for, lets go even lower and be derogitory on things like, say, their Religeon, but why stop there? we could go further as to sex, skin colour, racial background, country of origin and even finaly what cereal they have in the morning. And when we finaly reach this stage, i will finaly have to say.

There's a difference between attacking someone because of their race, gender and age because you can't choose those things. As for religion and politics, if you go around espousing a particular political/religious view, and if that view features prominently in your sig, you are opening yourself up to arguments. I have very strong opinions on a number of things, but I don't have a pic in my sig of George Bush getting fellated by Tony Blair, now do I?
