Very well put and spoken. I can't complain too much either. Life is good. It would just be nice to know that someone was looking out for us too.

Word! Couldn't have said it any better. Party politics are killing this country. Politicians need to start doing what's right for the country and the people.


That'd be a first!

The problem is that people expect others to look out for them. Being independent, really free means not having to rely on anyone.

Ok, let me put it like this...I'd like to see more of my hard-earned money stay in my paycheck each week. I think it sucks that my tax bracket is 30%. That's probably my biggest complaint.

Psssfffft!

Who wouldn't?

My biggest beef next to taxes is social security. Why should I be forced to pay into a retirement fund I won't see and have no control over?

This is the type of thinking that is destroying this great nation.

They don't want us to forget that we're different, and they want to promote this kind of thinking so we can keep disagreeing with each other and that way they will keep their grip on us.

At the end of the day, liberal, conservative, libertarian it don't matter we will all get shafted

To quote George Carlin

"It's a big club, and you and me are not in it!"

That is unless you run a major bank or corporation or


Yeah go ahead and keep thinking that you're better because you're a conservative, I bet your ass that they don't give a crap about you or me. They will tell you the things you want to hear so they can get your vote and that's the only thing they care about.

Bottom line?
Who cares!
I'm a conservative. Big whup! I live as independently as possible, however.

I don't rely on government to provide food, clothing or shelter.

I work for what I have, why not take pride in that?

HAHA business as usual??? Hmm looking at whom the libs have in placed in the various czar positions makes that kinda funny
Not like there is any honesty about it from that side. The very people who "caused" the finacial crisis are sitting in gov't jobs now. Except Corzine, he is, yea what are they doing with him now?

News Flash: Personal responsibility isn't limited to those of the conservative mindset.

Nice attempt at claiming it for your team though.

Good for you man! Nothing wrong with taking pride in what you have.

But why do you feel you have to let EVERYONE know how conservative you are? Does it give you a feeling of superiority?

Not everyone has the physical ability to work a full time job and they have to rely on government assistance to provide food for their family, there's also nothing wrong with that imo.
