Come to think of it, generally the west would be better off by itself. We have a Western Bloc party... but it's run by neo nazis. [/quote] That's quality!

exclusivee Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) I am a young conservative. Why? Because I can think for myself, and not let the media and MTV brainwash what my values are. Considering that I'm from Vancouver (the most liberal city in the world, after Amsterdam), it's pretty much a rarity here to even be remotely conservative. I need to get out of here, I swear =/. But whateverrrrr, I wear my Nobama shirt with pride. Oh, and about Quebec: they always want to leave. Always. So in order to shut them up, the federal government pours tons of money into Quebec every year. Edited April 18, 2009 by exclusivee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinytherese Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Conversatives are rare in my family. I might have been the only one who voted for McCain. At Christmas Eve, when my family started talking about how much they couldn't stand Sarah Palin and I just left the room. Some of them believe that the only parrty to be apart of if you have a brain is the democrat one. I'm the weirdo who doesn't belong to a political party and probably never will. I go by my faith and not by a party. My faith transcends all political parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our provincial Conservatives are ridiculous and not real conservatives, but at least they aren't Liberal! (We also refer to them as a 'nation within a nation'. You'd think that would be enough for those crazy Frenchies.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an ex-pat from Canada who moved to Vermont (though that seems hardly a change in climate - either physically or cultural-politically). He's funny and entertaining as all get-out, but also speaks right to the heart of many of our current political and cultural issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said a similar thing about Fulton Sheen. Something about people trying to label him as conservative or liberal and failing because he defied their narrow expectations. I should look that quote up. It was quite encouraging. I'm not much a conservative or a liberal. Some issues I agree with one party, one person... some another. I'm for unborn rights and worker's rights. The economy and the environment. Etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
