[QUOTE="brett636, post: 305035, member: 249"] I would like to expand on my earlier post. Diesel likes to bring up this idea that right wing conservatives listen to talk radio because we feel insecure in our ideals. That we need others to support and reiterate what we believe because ultimatly we are not fully invested in our own ideas on where this country should go. I would like to point out to him that conservatives such as myself rely on logic, facts, and knowledge of the full situation before we make a decision on where we stand. Liberals like diesel rely on emotion, conjecture, and in some cases complete ignorance to the facts when making those same decisions. I don't have an emotional investment in my ideals because I know logically they are right. Smaller government, lower taxes, and free markets benefit more people than the alternative. If Mr. Diesel wishes to discuss insecurity perhaps he should focus on his own ideas versus attacking my own. I believe people act more prudently in their choices through life when they have to stand on their own two feet. This is why private sector businesses are far more efficient than the government could ever hope to be. I feel secure enough in my personal choices and ability to make those choices that I have no desire for the government in my life. This is in contrast to the ideas of the left where they have a high level of insecurity that they feel the government needs to take a bigger role in their lives. People like Diesel do not trust their personal decision skills enough to go through life without a large government presence. Thus, the insecurity lies not with conservatives who wish to gather facts on the issues through talk radio, but with liberals who do not believe in themselves enough make sound decisions on life's many choices.
