My colleagues are perhaps knee-jerk conservatives, but not knee-jerk Republicans. There is a difference. The Republican Party is often very liberal. So, true conservatives cannot support the Republican Party on many issues, like immigration policies.
I am even less “knee-jerk” than my fellow ideologues. I am not a knee-jerk Republican, and not a knee-jerk conservative. I am, though, a knee-jerk Truthian. If the truth lies with the liberals, I support them. If it lies with the conservatives, I support them.
For example, I think big government is a good idea on some issues, like homelessness. I think we as a society ought to solve this problem, now. Before the Reagan years, many homeless were being treated in hospitals. Now, they are on the street, in their pathetic existences of begging and wiping windshields. These poor people. Who is to blame? Unfortunately, Reagan, Democrats and liberals, Republicans and conservatives, and all of American society.
The conservatives are to blame because they eliminated the programs. The liberals are to blame because they championed the “human rights” of the homeless, and mandated that they couldn’t be hospitalized against their will. So now there are no programs, first of all. Second, many of the homeless are victims of poor judgment and refuse help, or don’t know how to access it. Dems ease their conscience by giving dimes and quarters to the homeless. Repubs say every man for himself. Neither solution is enough. We need a major national response, a good old liberal program for the poor on this one.
Yes, I am a knee-jerk Truthian. The problem for Libs at this time in history, is that they have utterly abandoned their liberal fundamentals. They don’t care about truth, and, to be honest, they don’t care about people. They are vicious in their attacks of their political opponents, and they care little for their constituents. They are racist and pandering. They support thugs like Castro and Chavez, and ideologies like communism and socialism. They have become a cruel party of liars and demagogues.
Let them return to their true compassionate, humanistic roots, and I can support them on some issues.

igor, this is like throwing pearls to swine, but I'll occasionally do it, just in case you have a brain cell left. I will never respond rationally to any of your comments until you start to be rational and respectful. Personal attacks are not allowed on websites. I know you don't care about this rule, but it's my rule and the rule of all legitimate blogs. If you persist in personal attacks, then you'll get them right back. And I can do it much better than you.
So, keep it up, scumbag. You just give me the opportunity to vent and use you as an object of ridicule, scorn, and humor. I like it.
igor, I think we've heard enough of your wisdom for a while, so expect your messages to be trashed, no matter how many you send, until I get bored and feel again like showing the world what ignorance is.
Ouch. Rock, you and Igor are really going at it, huh?
Iwas in the chat room, but you went away. :-(

You were my FIRST choice :-)

Thanks, glad it's you. Thought it was another nut like igor.
I'll be there.
