Why are both options conservative? This is just like your last poll; you seem to be only including options that you view as moral or correct.

:confused:

a) There are more than two parties in the US.
b) There are people who are not conservative.
c) Many people on this forum don't come from the States.
d) What are you trying to find out?

I think I learned about this in Politics… it's the illusion of choice, where the individual is deceived into thinking that he has a choice, when in reality the amount of options available is decided beforehand.

Loyal Christians is a cunning one.

Some things I'd like to bring up:

Most people in the first world consider themselves as liberals.
Having only Conservative Republicans and Conservative Democrats shows that your intelligence is on the border line with mental retardation.
The word 'Conservative' could be perceived differently in many parts of the world because it either means socially conservative, economically conservative, or on rare occasions, both.
What happened to the good ole Greens, Libertarians, and Socialists?

Only conservatives have morals.
And all Progressivists (what is the opposite of conservative?) think morals are relative.

Yeah didn't you get the memo? Since we are lacking morals they are generously imposing their own on us! Boy we're lucky.

No, only Communists have morals, the morals that make us believe that being put under a boss is the second greatest sin (the first being slavery).

We believe in the freedom of all and the self-management of factories and all the peoples of the world, without any high corrupt authority.

Now those are true morals.

The "morals" of the American conservatives doesn't exist, because they want to force others to live the "Christian," "good," "moral" way.

Some other good communist morals are elimination of private property, or theft, and the elimination of individualism in favor the collective "good". Stealing is always a good idea, though.:)

I would mind giving it to the state-then the state gives it back. The fact is that a lot of people don't have enough a too many people have two much, if the state took contol then everyone would be equal.

No...then the state would have everything. And why should I have to give stuff up against my consent? But how does this have to do with morals in politics? Nothing. because this topic sucked. I hereby declare it hijacked.

If it's hijacked, I'm taking hostages! None of you will take me alive!

But more on the matter, if you look at some of H.D. Thoreau's work, he had an idea of State, which is, every one participates in State, and every one therein, IS the State. Not very practicle, but interesting nonetheless.
