Default Re: What I do not understand about the conservative ideology

[ QUOTE ]
Once again this thread is filled with Liberals deciding that conservatives in order to be conservative should really be adopting the liberal position.

Again when it comes to social issues Conservaties simply believe that their communities should represent thier common values and these should be decided by the people (through elected representatives) at the local or state level and not by judges.

That is what I was thinking. I find it interesting that people are so obsessed with telling others how they aren't true to their own ideology, especially when they don't share it.

The concept of the post is off base in my opinion. If you don't believe in either no governmental intervention all on issues or total intervention, it apparently means you are a hypocrit with no real principles. There is no reason people cannot look at each issue and come up with a policy/decision they feel is best.
