1) Conservatives believe in an absolute right to free speech while Liberals believe in this right so long as what is being said is not deemed to be politically incorrect or in the least bit offensive to any person, organization, ethnicity, sexual orientation, culture, species, genus or group.

2) Conservatives believe that law abiding citizens should have the right to protect their family and property from criminals with firearms while Liberals seek to enact laws that would leave guns in only the hands of criminals while barring law abiding Americans from acts of self defense.

3) Conservatives believe that existing immigration laws need to be enforced, illegals need to be deported and that nobody violating our sovereignty should be entitled to any benefits funded by our tax dollars while Liberals believe that amnesty is the way to solve the immigration crisis and that illegal aliens should be entitled to free education, healthcare and welfare.

4) Conservatives support English as the official language and believe that all business and government transactions including ballots, forms, education and tests must be conducted in English while Liberals do not support English as the official language of our nation and seek to undermine the American culture with an agenda of multicultural fascism and bigotry.

5) Conservatives support the right to defend our nation and our sovereignty from enemy attacks while Liberals prefer to undermine our military while creating rights for terrorists and enemy combatants.

6) Conservatives believe that people should be judged based upon their merit and achievement while Liberals prefer to judge people based upon the color of their skin.

7) Conservatives believe that people can become very successful and wealthy through hard work and diligence while Liberals believe that anyone who has gotten rich did so by cheating the system or through pure luck and must be punished through a shakedown racket referred to as the Tax Code.

8) Conservatives believe in the principle of limited government with as much decentralization as possible while Liberals believe in totalitarian government that controls every aspect of our lives.

9) Conservatives believe in energy independence through domestic exploration while Liberals believe that paying nations that harbor terrorists for their oil is more important than becoming energy independent.

10) Conservatives believe that success is determined by how well one confronts the challenges of life beginning at a very young age. Children must be taught to be winners, to be accountable, to be successful and to be determined. They must understand the importance of being at the top of their class when in school and at the top of their game when on the field. They must respect their elders and their God. Liberals believe that success is a sign of greed and that people must make sacrifices for the common good, so that nobody is better than anybody else. They believe that grading papers in red pen is mean spirited, that raising your hand in class is condescending and that any game in which there are winners and losers such as tag , dodge ball and duck, duck goose must be banned.

They got you Chris , right where they want you . Believing what you do and thinking it is a party trait . Any one in any party can run amock when they think of their ideas as the only viable solution . It has taken many people and many varied ideas to make the USA what it is . Stonewall thinking will get you just that , a stonewall . A place where you can not move forward . This country is still evolving and must continue to do so to survive . Even what we refer to as Communisat China is not so set in their ways that change is not possible and no idea is left out anymore , that is exactly why they will pass the USA by 2020 . Pass us that is unless we take new direction . When you take the attitude that you are always right and then show it through only might , you are doomed to fail . Good leadership can come from anywhere and manifests itself by leading through and by example . You cannot destroy ideology , you must wear it down and out , and this can only be done by showing a better avenue , not by telling anyone . It is good however that you have the gumption to speak your peace , and it is only possible to speak your peace as long as we don't quit trying .

Chris, hey, I really loved your points man. The one about guns and the second amendment is great. As a terrific radio talk show host I listen to in the mornings says, "Every gun law in America is unconstitutional." He's right on the money because they all in one way or another violate those ever important words that gun confiscating liberals always seem to forget, "...the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." These moonbats will just never understand the truths that: 1)murder is in a person's heart, not in the handle of a gun, and 2) if you take away everybody's guns, the only people who will have them are the criminals (see Virginia Tech is a gun-free zone). Unbelievable.

But I especially liked number 7 that touched on taxes and class envy. If liberal socialist democrats obtain even more power in '08 (i.e. the White House), there will surely be no stopping them from advancing their Marxist agenda of wealth redistribution. That will mean higher taxes for everybody. The "obscene" profits of "big oil" and "big corporations" will be taken away from them (as if they're not now) by the likes of communists such as Hillary Clinton. These elitists truly  believe that they are our "betters" which entitles them to be the arbitors of who makes "too much" money, and of course, let's not forget that also means they're so much smarter than us and therefore are entirely justified in taking boat loads of our money that we actually earn because they can spend it wiser than we ever could.

Communism needs to be redefeated in '08 and that means Americans have to give the boot to just about the entire frieking democratic party.
