no. in fact, i consider them to be nearly opposite. rightwingers, most republicans, are the anti-conservatives. they love big government above all and love to spend other people's money. they only complain about those things when they benefit others. socially, the continually take big government and money wasting positions. if you were a true conservative, or even close, the last candidate you would vote for would be the very common strain of republican called the rightwinger.
but I thought the rhetoric is about being conservative?
it would seem like bad strategy to preach conservative rhetoric yet take such big government stances...
It will probably really hurt them in the long run...
not a good choice...
But I think to play the victim card and that they are victims of obama, saying he is big government was their short term strategy

Nevada Assemblyman Ira Hansen (R), who the assembly’s Republican caucus selected as their choice to be its next speaker earlier this month, has a long history of racist, sexist and homophobic statements chronicled in a long list published by the Reno News Review. Among other things, as part of a broader statement of support for school vouchers, Hansen claimed that “[t]he relationship of Negroes and Democrats is truly a master-slave relationship, with the benevolent master knowing what’s best for his simple minded darkies.” Indeed, according to the News Review, Hansen keeps a Confederate battle flag on his wall, which he says that he flies “proudly in honor and in memory of a great cause and my brave ancestors who fought for that cause.” He also “tends to use the term ‘Negro’ and often does not capitalize it.”
Hansen has also published several columns attacking Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., including one where he claims that “King’s private life was trashy at best. … King Jr. is as low as it gets, a hypocrite, a liar, a phony, and a fraud.” In another piece, he wrote that “[t]he lack of gratitude and the deliberate ignoring of white history in relation to eliminating slavery is a disgrace that Negro leaders should own up to.”
Nor does Hansen reserve his condemnations for African Americans. He’s argued that “women do not belong in the Army or Navy or Marine Corps, except in certain limited fields.” He’s criticized the “sexual revolution” and the “women’s liberation movement” for encouraging women “to act as foolishly as men.” And he also claims to have a strange obsession with happy child molesters. He once wrote that he’s “been keeping a rough tally on guy/heterosexual molesters as reported locally” and that this inquiry revealed that “and roughly half of all molestations involve guy men preying on boys.” As the News Review notes, “Hansen gave no details, nor did he publish his list, nor did he explain how he knew the sexuality of the alleged molesters.”
When incoming assembly members are sworn in, Republicans will enjoy a 25-17 majority over Democrats, all but ensuring that their choice for the speaker’s chair will preside over the chamber.

Comparing the people of America to China and India is apples to oranges...These people aren't spoiled by a couple generations of wealth.
Americans are a spoiled rotten bunch of addicted sloths for the most part...many of them are in these threads crying about the poor (themselves) The rest of the world works to get ahead meanwhile they shove crap up their noses or jam Big Macs down there throat.
The baby boomers ruined what it meant to work for a living. The entitlement that it produced for the subsequent generations is why our country is in such a free fall when it comes to global competitiveness...
To be an engineer means you have to problem solve, which means taking math, and thinking critically....Now apply those prerequisites to the majority of the US populations...

In the United States today, ending drug addiction seems impossible. The system claims to be "fighting drugs"-- with cops, new medications, religion, new therapies, and "just say no" campaigns. But despite all of this the drug problem won't go away -- while armed police enforcers harass and brutalize the people.
Why? Because this dog eat dog system causes drug use, and because powerful forces within the system profit off of drug sales. The production, transportation and sale of drugs is a multi-billion-dollar business. It is run by big-time capitalists who have ties throughout the U.S. government, the CIA and the police. Meanwhile, the top rulers of this system blame the people for the "drug problem'' -- especially the poor.
Materialism, drug addiction and "Big Macs" are all cases of the strong, preying on the weak.

Morons (republicans) think the poor people are the ones to blame for this countries financial problems. They think drug addicts are the ones to blame for this countries drug problems. They think the consumer is the one to blame for materialism.

As a non-partisan independent, I think I need to be fair here...
I don't think GOPs actually believe that...
what they do however is put a rhetoric to wrangle in the people in america that do not believe in responsibility and accountability... and give them a belief system to blame others for the problems of the nation... anything other than taking personal responsibility and accountability....
they simply use this solidify their base on serial victims who blame everything and anything on anyone else but themselves....
It s a pretty smart way to go as this base will believe anything fed to them as long as it is pointing the finger away from personal responsibility and accountability...

poor people blame people with more money then them for being poor...

I gave up on the NFL after getting massacred last year, and the year before that, and possibly the year before the year before...
I'm looking forward to the days my two little ones can get into competitive stuff at school, they only 1 and 3 though right now...their vacation ends when birthday #4 comes around..

So drug addicts are not responsible for their own poor decisions? Nor are they responsible for the predictable outcome of the decisions?
Maybe I misunderstood your point- If not, please elaborate.....
They're responsible for their poor decisions but the countries drug problem is the result of a failed and corrupt system. Remove every addict and keep the same system ... You'll have just as many addicts "tomorrow".

So-the country's failed drug policy is responsible for a free thinking person saying yes to drugs? Just clarifying your position- My position is....we all have the freedom to say yes or no to drugs-if we say yes, then we deal with the consequences- looking in the mirror for an answer-

You have the freedom to turn your back on the real issues. However, the consequences of everyone turning their back is that the problem will keep getting worse.
