Where I Stand as a Conservative
By: Diane Sori
Conservative...one who leans to the political right of center. Yet that does NOT mean one has to lean so far to the right so as to appease those on our side who behave just as badly as those on the left.
So what kind of Conservative am I...
First, I am a proud TEApublican, a moniker coined by Ted Cruz, a man I support for president.
Second, I am a staunch Conservative on the important issues affecting our country as in the economy, jobs creation, fiscal responsibility, reducing the deficit, cutting taxes, stopping over regulations, national security, supporting our military, standing strong with Israel, NO amnesty or government assistance for ILLEGALS, securing the border, NO sharia allowed in America, building the Keystone Pipeline, repealing ObamaCare, smaller government with less intrusion into our personal lives, calling to task and jailing those involved in Benghazi and both the IRS and NSA scandals, impeaching then arresting Obama for treason and aiding and abetting the enemy, and most critical...returning the law of our land solely and emphatically to the Constitution. These are the issues that do belong on the federal level.
Third, I also know that the so-called 'social issues' belong on the state's level NOT the federal level as per the Constitution. The social issues are dividing our party so I will now freely admit to being more socially moderate and NOT hide that fact. I will NOT gay bash nor will I call for the stoning of gays...as some within our ranks are doing. I am one hundred percent in support of stem cell research, our space program including spending the money to build a moon base and going to Mars, and I do NOT condemn abortion in certain circumstances...those being rape, incest, the life of the mother, or if a baby is so 'compromised' that it has ZERO chance of survival outside the womb. I also have NO problem with the 'morning after' pill in those first instances as it prevents conception NOT aborts an already developing fetus. I am NOT NOT NOT a supporter of late-term abortion.
Fourth, during the primaries when we should be supporting the candidates of our choice know that I will NOT support any candidate whose main platform is the social issues nor will I support any candidate who tries to push their personal religious beliefs on the populace. Again, the social issues belong with the states and NOWHERE in our founding documents are the words' God, Jesus, or Christianity to be found as our founders omitted them for a reason...as in they knew government has NO place in people's religion and in turn they knew that NO one specific religion has a place in government. Remember, our Founders ran from the theocracies of Europe and did NOT want America to become one.
Lastly, I will support whomever wins the nomination as I will NEVER vote 3rd party or support a 3rd party candidate as they have NO chance of winning. And a 3rd party vote in reality is a vote for the Democrats. The two-party system does work...we just have to bring the Republican party back to its roots NOT abandon it.
And that includes removing John Boehner as Speaker of the House.
