Excerpt from American Thinker: “Eureka, I am a Conservative”.
~~
Horrified by out-of-control spending, a socialist agenda, and weak foreign policy, a growing number of outraged Americans have been doing some major political soul-searching.
~~
Intuitively, they sense America has dangerously changed course, and a growing sea of citizens are now on the same page and thinking the same thoughts:
I am against the federal redistribution of wealth.
I am against entitlement politics.
I am against American czars.
I am against apology tours that denigrate the greatness of our country.
I am against tax-and-spend politics.
I am against government takeovers.
I am against amnesty citizenship for those who have entered our country illegally.
I am against the out-of-control printing of money.
I am against legislation designed to do away with free speech (Fairness Doctrine).
I am against big government.
I am against trillion-dollar government stimulus package slush funds.
I am against treating our allies like enemies and our enemies like friends.
I am against politicians who do not let us drill for oil
I am against politicians who look the other way while Iran and North Korea develop nuclear weapons.
I am against government-run health care.
I am against health care bills that provide abortion funding.
I am against backroom deals by politicians that circumvent transparency and the Constitution.
I am against trillion-dollar deficits.
I am against high taxes.
I am against treating all people to the identical security scrutiny in airports.
I am against bills that provide special exemptions for legislators.
I am against bills that provide special privileges to certain states.
I am against those who would stifle an honest global warming debate.
I am against the federal funding of corrupt organizations like ACORN.
I am against “Miranda rights” for foreign terrorists.
I am against confessed 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed getting a civilian trial in NY.
I am against cap-and-trade legislation and taxing carbon footprints.
I am against the closing of GITMO and the bringing of terrorists to American soil.
I am against letting the U.N. tell us how to live.
I am against a president who does not believe in American exceptionalism.
Should I go on? Is thirty enough? The list need not end….
~~
This is the point in time that these Americans start investigating the opposite of liberalism. They start formulating their own list of what they stand for:
~~
I am for low taxes.
I am for small government.
I am for a free-market system.
I am for the Constitution.
I am for the Separation of Powers.
I am for fiscal responsibility.
I am for government accountability.
I am for supporting our allies and confronting the tyrants of the world.
I am for states’ rights.
I am for a strong military.
….This list need not end either….
~~~
In the past year, across this great nation of ours, an awakening has started. Let your non-conservative friends, be they liberals or independents, know….you are not alone…get them started. Provide them with a list of what you are against concerning the present administration, followed by what you believe in…don’t be shy…
