A neo-conservative is someone who was liberal in the 1960s and 1970s but turned to conservatism when they were disillisioned with American liberalism and where it was taking America.Most neo-cons, are highly educated and were in high positions of authority in the 1960s and 1970s.\n  A conservative is someone who were supporters of the 1968 campaign of Barry Goldwater for the Republican nomination.It goes without saying that these same people supported Reagan in 1980 and 1984. Most conservative became that way during the Reagan years.

Most Roman Catholics tend to be pretty conservative - I definitely am!!  You might want to read the Catechism of the Catholic Church for more information.

By saying  rafical, did you mean laughable? If so, I'll go with that one. If you mean radical, that's taken by the left. I think ultra-conservative is about as far right as you can go. If you mean just left (I know people hate that word) of ultra-conservative, you'd be conservative.

I would say this depends on what you are conservative about.  The issues that conservatives used to identify with the GOP are no longer fundamental to that party especially as concerns fiscal responsibility.  Civil liberty protection, refrain from nation-building, separation of church and state and a well-defined balance of power within the branches of government all USED to be core conservative positions.  Conservatism above all used to be about CIVIL BEHAVIOR (Rush!) HONESTY (W!) and COMMON SENSE (Rummy!)  Neo-conservatives have surrendered moderates to the RELIGIOUS conservatives and THEY now define YOU.  Even Nixon was more honest than this bunch.

The main problem is that these "WORDS" are tossed around and used incorrectly! \n\nLiberal (Left Wing) should mean a free thinker, open minded, ect...\n\nConservatives (Right Wing) are people who should save, protect, or carefully use assets or make choices that require unclouded thinking.\n\nIn the end it's all a bunch of bull shit! The so called conservatives are ignorant minions of the wealthy and powerful. The GOP (grand over-class party) is a great example of this. They spend our money on bull shit like there's no tommorrow and try and oppress those who oppose them. They suck at social justice. (We are a Christian Nation yet we treat our poor and powerless like shit by cutting funding to important social programs and education). And they are great at filling their own pockets and the pockets of their masters with our hard earned tax dollars. This all goes against the saying "they will know we are Christian by our love".\n\nThe left wingers don't want people telling them how to live or what kind of choices they can make. BUT there are some things that shouldn't happen like a federal recongized homosexual marriage. The people need to vote on stuff like that. There are so many more important social and legal issues that need to be fixed before jumping onto a sword like that! \n\nIt all comes down to money and power. Right wingers leaders lie just as well if not better than left wingers. Don't let the left or right wing control your mind. Don't use these "Words" to lable yourself or others because these words are not used for what they mean. \n\nEducate yourself on the issues not by Watching FOX NEWS or CNN but by opening up a book and your mind.

There are many different kinds of conservatives. The Economist had an interesting article about the evolution of American Conservatism (which is very different than its counterparts in other parts of the world) a couple of months ago. Traditionally, conservatives want smaller government, less government interference in our private lives, and the government to be accountable for its spending (it should be noted that the first usages of the word liberalism had similar meanings).\n\nMost of the conservatives who are in power today are not of the traditional variety, they are social conservatives, or as some like to call them, neo-cons. They want their social agenda as the law. This is in direct contrast to more traditional conservatives (who now mostly identify themselves as libertarians) who want the government not to regulate or interfere in people's private lives.\n\nIt should also be noted that while conservatives say they want less in the way of entitlement programs, and are fiscally "conservative," the Clinton administration was the one who reformed welfare and balanced the budget, while the Bush administration had the largest increase in entitlement programs in over a decade, and doesn't seem to know what a balanced budget means. Liberalism does not necessarily equal large entitlement schemes, just like conservatism does not necessarily mean someone is fiscally responsible. Labels are usually misleading.

Veeery generaly speaking, the Left (liberal) and Right (conservative) of politics came out of the French Revolution.\n\nAt that time, the Left was more concerned with laws that protect people's rights, and the conservatives are more concerned with laws that protect property.  \n\nFrom this, the traditional Liberal and Conservatives have arisen.  No one politican or person exemplifies what the TRUE definition of the words are, but issue by issue, the sides of politics have been created by these factions.\n\nIf you ask me, the terms liberal and conservative are meaningless, because they can't capture the entire persons views, and a person who describes themselves as a dem, repub, liberal or conservative is doing an injustice to the political process.\n\nAll politicians agree that its not about sides, its about issues.  Not about teams, its about debate and progress.

I have read both articles before.  censorship is traditionally a conservative idea.  liberalism usually takes a strong pro-individual stance on most social issues, including censorship.  One of the central tenets of liberalism is the rights of the individual against social traditions.  conservativism has typically taken a group centered (community, nation, etc.) stance on social issues, arguing that the rights of the individual are subservient to the desires of the group.  I'm not trying to argue for either approach, they both have their advantages and disadvantages.  But, censorship is traditionally a conservative position.  \n\nThis being said, there are instances of liberal censorship.  In some cases, as in the one you cite, the censorship is consistent with liberal principles (separation of church and state, the right of individuals to be free of religious coercion).  Liberals may wish to censor speech (or expression) which is seen as unduly infringing on the rights of individuals (as in this case or in the case of hate speech.)  \n\nI would say that censorship exists to some degree in both philosophies, but it has traditionally been used more often by conservativism, due to conservativism's preferrence of the group over the individual.
