Why is always...Do conservatives this and conservatives that? Why don't you just make your own opinion and eventually you'll chose a side that best exemplifies that, instead of harping on someones idea of what a conservative is. That's the problem with the political system, Far too partisan at any cost. It's not your favorite football team people. It's your Country.

Our taxes go to pay the interest on what the government owes the federal reserve. Our taxes dont benefit anyone or anything but the men who control our government.

Not really.
But, I would rather my taxes be used to defend this great land and its traditional values as penned by the founding fathers.
Not to supporting the lazy with wasteful Government Assistance that breeds more laziness.

Of course not. Among other things, I need to fund liberal pet programs that are used to buy votes from the lowest common denominator of society (and the most uninformed among us).

Yes-- Next question.
Do liberals want the military disbanded? They don't want them to have anything and they never want to give them a raise. In fact they think they are totally stupid. *LOL* I suppose that's because the military generally votes Republican for President.

I'd rather it went to the military than to corporate welfare or tobacco subsidies....

Probably. They don't care for any of the social programs in the U.S.
Then again more than what they are saying is probably being filtered to the military anyway. Damn Bush.
