Conservative Resolutions

Something to think about if you are a conservative

clipped from www.humanevents.com Five New Year’s Resolutions for Conservatives by Gary Bauer 1. REJECT BIG GOVERNMENT - I resolve not to apologize for being a conservative, because conservatism does not need to be softened as if there were something inherent in our allegiance to principled conservatism—with its belief in a strong national defense, traditional moral values and fiscal responsibility—that made it cruel 2. EMBRACE THE FAITH OF OUR FATHERS AND MOTHERS -- I resolve to fight attempts by secularists to deny or misrepresent America’s Christian heritage in the classroom, in the office and wherever it is found. 3. SUPPORT FAIR MEDIA OUTLETS -- I resolve to be attentive to media bias and to expose it in all its forms 4. RESOLVE DIFFERENCES QUIETLY AND WITH DIGNITY -- I resolve not to mischaracterize other conservatives’ positions or records on issues, especially to unsympathetic media outlets that would trumpet the words to aid the liberal agenda 5. SUPPORT TRUE CONSERVATIVES
