I just took one of those little tests to see how progressive I was. How accurate it was, I don't know but I scored a 400 and 205 was average so I must be a socialist.
Now sitting here in the rural red red state of Ga let me tell you a little about me. I don't drink. A little wine at Christmas, maybe. I recently quit smoking cigarettes and not much now at all. I never did pot or any other illegal drugs. I have not been in trouble with the law.
I have made trouble for the law when I felt they were wrong by taking them to court over tickets but I consider myself conservative. I don't blow money. I don't expect anyone to pay my way. I work hard. I went to school. I had an open mind to a degree and nobody could change my mind once it was made up.
I am a strict Mother. You would think I was of Italian or Jewish descent with the way I raise kids. I tend to never be satisfied with some of their choices in opposite sexes. I expect responsibility and laziness not to be an option, I don't want to or I can't just rubs me the wrong way and when I get angry, most everyone knows it. If they don't, they are blind, deaf or both.
I am a person of deep faith. Not deep religion. Deep Faith. I care passionately about things. I don't give a flip about monetary things when it comes down to choices of family, health and happiness. I can live in a tent as long as I have my kids and husband with me in good health.
I am very loyal. Yet, it is hard for me to trust. I am not greedy and don't want to keep up with the Jones. I never cared about the latest fads or even shopping. I care about music. I care about health and learning and helping. I care about helping people less fortunate. I care about the oppressed. I admire people like MLK, Rosa Parks, John Lewis, Mother Teresa, Martin Sheen, Alan Grayson, people with backbone and purpose. I don't have a money market acccount or a retirement fund and half the time a bank account that is not overdrawn. That is because I have my family living with me and we are gonna feed them darnet !
I will stand toe to toe passionately if I feel you are abusing someone intentionally emotionally either by word or deed. I will cut someone off if I think I am being used and never look back. I care so deeply I can gather pleasure from a single rose and not r. I really notice the dozen roses. I pray from the heart and I don't care what someone wants to believe. It is their choice. I believe what I believe for my own reasons but choose not to shove them down people's throats. I believe in truth and honesty and still want to believe there is such a thing as good will towards man. I gather solace from the stars and watching the kids sleep and I never have problems sleepng. I kiss my grown kids in public and expect them to hug me and they do when the notion hits.
I will say what I think and not back down. I want let a person push their politics on me.
I personally think the majority of so called Christians are hypocrites and Jesus was a liberal if he had any political persusaion. Otherwise, he would not have said to take no thought of tomorrow and all the greedy worry about their little nest eggs. I really really want to know what a conservative is because I have always considered myself conservative in my mannerisms, my taste,
my self respect, and my family values. Who are these people talking about when they refer to themselves as conservatives? I was a virgin when I got married, I only had a wild streak or two in my twenties, never did the woodstock thing, never smoked a cigarette till I was 23, never tasted a beer till I was 24 and was brought up as a preachers kid. I minded my parents and was respectful to my elders. Aren't we really the people who care, the so called socialst, liberals that are really conservative in our views on education and making life better for our fellow man? I never judge anyone. I feel we are all the same f they turned us inside out.
