About
I’m a Christian, Conservative, Republican. In that order.
SCAAC is not in any way officially associated with any related sites, including, but not limited to, IMAO, Treacher, and pjtv.com (not that I wouldn’t like to be, but I’m just getting started).
I’m a Jesus-loving, Bible-thumping, abortion-hating, capitalism-supporting, gun-clinging, knife-wearing, “green”-hating, south-loving, meat-eating, Bible-reading, “Nobama”-saying, computer-programming, State-going, MSM-ignoring, Rush-listening dude.

I don’t even know how I stumbled here. I was surprised (and flattered!) to find our past conversations, and I commend your exercise of free speech. Although we disagree on many points, I consider myself a fiscally conservative, free market capitalist and a proponent of small government. If you share these sames views, I am in support.

Just out of curiosity, there a particular reason you left a comment here instead of the page/post in question?
Adam Keith said
Well not particularly. I saw that someone else had commented here. I thought I might as well. I didn’t have any particular question either. I just saw that you had some of our conversations posted and wanted to comment about that. Also, I wanted to distinguish the difference in being fiscally conservative and socially conservative. I consider them mutually exclusive.

Don’t understand what you’re saying about a question.
That’s not what “mutually exclusive” means. “Mutually exclusive” means that two things cannot both be true at the same time (like being in favor of gun control and against gun control). And it’s certainly not mutually exclusive to be both fiscally and socially conservative, seeing as how I am both.
I gather you’re trying to say that being one does not mean you’re the other.
Being fiscally and socially liberal (or vice versa) doesn’t make any sense in my book (on some issues). It’s certainly possible to be fiscally conservative and be in favor of, say, abortion. But you can’t be fiscally conservative and be in favor of public funding for abortion, or increased welfare. Basically, they may be independent of each other on some things, but by no means on all.
