That's the problem with the conservative label. Every con here is accused of being a Christian fundamentalist who believes in cavemen riding dinosaurs. I don't believe that..more to the point I don't really consider religion...period. I'm a catholic, I guess but don't go to church. I'm certainly not for endless wars....so the neocon label is ridiculous for most of us. Primarily because early neo's were lib hawks. Many of them didn't like Reagan. Tu has never come across as a Lib...and only of handful of folks here...regardless of political persuasion still support Obama, right down the line even if they're still Dems.
That's the rub though isn't it?
While most people around here really aren't Neo Cons or Christian Fundamentalists... (There's really only one or two off the top of my head to be honest) The problem is who does all of the talking on both sides.
Most people are just that... decent people... We want to keep our money, we like freedom, most of us don't care about a lot of topics... We worry about things that matter, not bullshit that doesn't, but the squeaky wheels get all the grease.
On both sides, all they do is whine about this... complain about that... Never a fix.
It's like ShitbamaCare... I think it sucks... No doubt... but the Republicans NEVER offered anything to fix it.
They had the time... We all know they did, but they chose to go into Iraq and shit like that.
I hate the Republicans and the Democrats pretty equally these days.
I'd like to lower our spending... fix our welfare (It can be done) and promote middle class economics... Bring some manufacturing back to this country that builds shit better than most others.
It's very disappointing.
