All I can figure out is that it somehow involves the radical religious right and entails:
Outlawing abortion
Outlawing Gay Relations
Trying to Change the Constitution to Exclude Groups
Pre-emptive War
Am I missing anything? Anyway, is this what the Republicans on here are dreaming of?

Elle, if I'm not so bright (as you quip), then why are some of the most heated Republican battles involving the things I stated. Actions speak louder than words, sweetie.

Its a code word for people who lack the ability to think for themselves, so they blindly pick a leader and follow him no matter what. They won't follow him into hell, but they will send other people there to die as long as they don't have to.

Okay. Conservatism as you term it, is something the Republicans have twisted way out of shape.
1. The government that governs least, governs the best. That is, less bureaucracy and less governmental intervention.
2. Strong military, strong economy.
3. Balanced budget.
4. Line item veto.
5. And LEAVE EVERYONE THE HELL ALONE! Including the gays, the people that want abortions, the ones that worship 50 foot tall sheep, or whatnot.
See Barry Goldwater's legacy for the rest.
Everyone after Nixon was nothing more than a right wing nut.

i would be chanting it from my sofa! yet i'm constructive that the little 5 365 days previous's have not got the brains to do this, they probable do not even comprehend that the late and great Kennedy became into released. damn those FOOLS. EDIT: truthfully, i would be a sprint greater advantageous than pissed in the event that they don't chant, sorry if i'm asking too a lot yet Kennedy extremely deserved to stay interior the WWE, and it became right into a brilliant mistake on freeing him. He reallllly merits to hearken to that pop from the gang, with a bit of luck human beings have sufficient sense to chant for him!

If Roe v. Wade were overturned, it would go to the states. Not necessarily be outlawed.
Who is trying to outlaw gay relations? What does that actually mean anyway?
What groups would be excluded and how would the constitution be changed?
Pre-emptive War. Did you look to see all who voted for Iraq or is it easier now to not really see what happened?
It is always easier to look back and see the mistakes one makes. It is harder to make the decisions based on the information of the day.

Outlawing abortion? yes.
Gay relations? unless it involves marriage, I really do not have a problem with gays (by the way, the guy who said that gay used to mean happy is right, I have wondered who changed the meaning)
Who are we trying to exclude anyways?
Pre-emptive war? Hmmm, bring it to your enemies, or let them bring it to you first? Tough decision (roll eyes)
You are missing a few things, and you got a few things wrong to begin with. Also, to answer your first question, it is something that you will never be able to comprehend.

Outlawing abortion and homosexual marriage was never an issue 50 years ago. It was considered taboo by everyone. Moral decay has brought us to this point in history where it is debated. No one is changing the Constitution..yet. It's your ilk, the minority that has pushed the majority so much that they're trying to keep some type of sanity. You have no right to sanctioned deviance.
Pre-emptive war? Big deal.
Get a clue.

Yes we believe in outlawing abortion
You can be gay, go right ahead, just don't try to change the sacred institution of marriage that prohibits homosexuality. I don't know all the legalese but I think civil unions would be O.K.
We are not racists, provide some backup info if you're going to make that claim.
Pre-emptive war is good, or do you prefer the death of fellow americans to start you on the same war?

You have been brainwashed into believing those are conservative ideals. Those are groups which have associated themselves with the Republican party and the leftists have termed right wing. But that is propaganda.
Conservatives believe in smaller government, not in passing laws or regulations. We believe in freedom.
We believe in defending our country, and the best way to do that is to be forward deployed. Think of it as a chess game. If you are not forward deployed, you are going to get crushed.

Yes. I would say that you are missing a thing or two, or three. As a member of the "radical religious right", I am a theonomist. Therefore, I am opposed to the wretched agenda of the reprobate left. I am opposed to sodomites, feminists, baby butchers, econazis, animal rights whackos, big government socialists, psychobabblers, and every other stripe of liberal under the sun.

Yeah some abberration like a church-state inquisition style of Government.
Country with a King, church with a Pope.. A total removal of all the principles of freedom this country was founded on.
Don't confuse the Neo-Con slant with the true conservatives. Most of the true conservatives have moved into the Democratic camp. Seeing a democracy starting to crumble under such violations of freewill. We find the right in the left side of the equation.

At the moment, the government is trying to distract the country from their major screw up with Iraq by trying to ban gay marriage and abortion. I guess they feel that the more people they screw over by 2009, the better job they've done?
