I am very conservative--I'm pro-life, pro-gun, anti-sodomy, etc. But I am against the Iraq war because it's unconstitutional--our military was meant for our DEFENSE, not nation-building.
Has anyone here really considered that there are conservatives who are against the war? Or that Bush is not a true conservative?
I'm sick and tired of the flag-waving jingoists around here!

Conservative? You have my deepest sympathy. I can't imagine going through life with such narrow minded view of the world.

opposite to Lilly (no disrespect) the libs/ and media there is not any mass protest. at the same time as Cindy Sheehan grow to be obtainable protesting very few people confirmed up except for media kinds. that is why the cameras not in any respect did a marvelous shot, there have been only a handful of protesters, and it is the reason she end, and those were her words. Conversly at the same time as SUPPORTERS of the troops went out through the 1000's there grow to be little or no insurance,except through EVIL FOX information. This conflict is "unpopular" with the media, and hollywood in trouble-free terms. The demoncrats who're "hostile to" it now, voted for it, yet convieniently forgot they voted for it. imagine again to the Kerry marketing campaign, the position he Voted for the nineteen billion after he Voted hostile to it. people prefer to win this conflict, yet that is not any longer a pollquestion. The pollquestion is: Do you basically like the way the conflict is being fought. If the answer is not any, it is billed as an anti conflict sentiment. i grow to be requested this very question in a mall. I clarified that i imagine the way the conflict is being fought is faulty, we want to diminish the politics out of it and enable the militia win it. wager how my answer grow to be gained? that is actual, as hostile to THE conflict. i'm for killing our enemies and prevailing the conflict, yet that is not any longer plausible once you are able to not "bomb throughout the time of Rahmadan", or "you are able to not bomb a mosque"...WHY THE *** no longer? The muslims bomb mosques each and each and every of the time, and CNN,CBS,BBC and NBC do not look to care, besides the undeniable fact that it a COALITION stress bombs one, those similar "purpose media" initiate crying ..conflict CRIMES! really in this u . s . you've Conservatives and the Media. The media is the right arm of the Demoncrats. They do the polling and help form the "reviews of the yank people" with their sound bites and jaded polls. whats up there have been no WMD's in Iraq..Bush lied, actual? properly up till we invaded, anybody knew there have been WMD's. Sadaam used them. once you supply a guy 6 months to flow to and fro them over to Syria, wager what, you gained't discover them in Iraq. look in Syria and also you'll discover them in 2 days. through the way, the militia says we do not want a draft. They weren't declaring that in the Viet Nam conflict. That grow to be a conflict being fought through a Demon crat president with Demon crat domicile and senate, that is why we lost that one.

Simply, there are two answers to your dilemma. One is you are a liberal, which you say you're not. The other is you are misinformed about "Why this war.
Your last statement tells about your beliefs. {Flag waving Jingoists}
Somebody has to wave the Flag of Freedom. Many have, and many lost their lives for you. Many now suffer from the effects both mentally and physically for their devotion to this nation and the Freedom you enjoy. Be careful out there, it is getting Cold.

people think that because only neoconservatives are die hard bush supporters. Becuase they are all religiously biased in their political views. They mix two things that don't go together. Bush is conservative republican, so all his die hard fans are with him. If he tells them 2+2=5, they will actually believe it!.
Therefore those who see Bush's lies, goes against him, and right now are usually the liberals.
Unfortunately you are just stereotyped into that, because you hold a view of the liberals.

Anti-sodomy? Now don't get crazy there =)
Bush is not a true conservative. He's a new conservative who doesn't extol the virtues of true conservatism, low taxes, small government, limited government control.

Some people like or tend to lump others into the same category out of ignorance. They see it done tv programs like FOX, OReilley, or CNN and think it is ok because they do it, or people they know do it as well.

Our military is used for the defense of Freedom, not just ours. Being the power that we are we have certain obligations to the world community.
