I have given a lot of thought over the years about how either political party fits the values of agriculture and rural america. While neither party may be right 100% of the time, it is my opinion that the conservatives, on the right, represent what we need, and has been good for America.
I am very sure that I don't know everything there is to know about my ansestors, but from the things I do know, I think our culture was better off with the values of earlier times. Look at what all things modern have done to the choices kids have to make these days. In my grandparents era there was no rap music, drugs, drive by shootings, etc. for kids to get involved with. Maybe these things were inevitable with the fast pace of our world, but I sure don't think you could call it "progress". I am also for the rights of citizens, but not for poor choices. Being liberal means anything goes, with no consequences. I just heard of a judge giving a criminal a very light sentence because his traumatic childhood outweighed the severity of the crime. What the heck does that have to do with how the victim of the crime was treated by the criminal? We don't need those sort of thinkers in our legal system.
I am trying not to aim this at any one person in particuar (on this board), but it just baffles me how those that want any non-dependancy on our government, can support loonies like Al Gore, Ted Kennedy, and John Kerry? I think they are the sort of thinkers that those who came to the US to start a new country wanted to leave behind. And now some want to run right back to that kind of government.
