		This website is dedicated to advancing the viewpoints and positions of the many conservative Democrats who, quite frankly, in my opinion, have been misrepresented and, at times, seems all but forgotten in the political battles that are waged daily throughout this country.
		Democrats represent a diversity of people, and, as I see it, represent the true voices of liberty. But Republicans have been very successful in portraying all democrats as “far left liberals." And nothing could be further from the truth.
		Being a Conservative Democratic means that while I support the general ideals of the Democratic Party, on certain issues my viewpoint may veer slightly right or left of the party platform.

	Sean Hannity Discussion - What is, or was, a Conservative Democrat?
		Conservatives hate hearing this, but back in the 1800's, Republicans were more Liberal and Democrats were more Conservative.

	The Conservative Democrat
		We've got so-called "conservative" Republicans trying to scrap 200+ years of Senate tradition by creating a special rule to do away with judicial filibusters (and saying that the Democrats are the ones who are trying to break a precedent by keeping the filibuster).
		The conservative ideology, if it may be so termed, follows governmental theories that rose to prominence during the Enlightenment and which drove both the American Revolution and the subsequent drafting and ratification of the Constitution of the United States.
		This outline of what is happening in the Republican party (and within the ranks of traditional conservatives, not necessarily the same as the Republican party) will serve as the context for later blog entries here, explaining why traditional conservatives should at this point be aligned with the Democratic party rather than with the Republicans.

	The Mason Conservative
		Conservatives want a society that respects and protects all innocent human life regardless of some political activists notion that some lives may not be of sufficient quality to avoid termination at the hands of an abortionist or a euthanizer.
		Fifth, conservatives are united in their agreement that we must bring into check the powers of an increasingly imperial judiciary which seeks to manufacture, rather than interpret the law.
		As a conservative I share much of Ronald Reagan’s world view; of an America that is strong and free; an America that is a beacon of liberty where individual responsibility is respected and rewarded; and of a government limited in its size, scope and power over people’s lives.

	It's Business as Usual, Starring Howard Dean
		Conservative Vermont business leaders praise Dean's record and his unceasing efforts to balance the budget, even though Vermont is the only state where a balanced budget is not constitutionally required.
		A meme was spreading in the Democratic Party that the former Vermont governor is insufficiently Zionist, that his views represent the antiwar fringe that's said to constitute his base.
		But sources close to other Democratic candidates are counterattacking, accusing Dean of turning up the volume on his passionate antiwar rhetoric in relatively liberal Iowa and then muting his war criticism in the more conservative key primary state of South Carolina.

		Republican officials said she formerly was a conservative Democrat, and Presidential spokesman Scott McClellan noted that at that time most people in Texas political life were Democrats.
		Nevertheless, Democrats can be expected to try to tie every Bush administration decision to her, since she has been at ground zero of an exceedingly insular White House since the Texans first came to Washington.
		Specifically, Democrats are likely to ask her about the so-called Bybee memo of 2002, since disavowed by the White House, which provided a legal justification for the use of torture on detainees in the war on terror.

	A National Party No More The Conscience of a Conservative Democrat by Zell Miller ISBN 0974537616
		With the growl of the Marine sergeant he was, Senator Zell Miller leaves no doubt that he believes his own Democratic Party is badly out of step with most of the country and needs to shape up or ship out.
		Unfortunately, the Zell Miller most Americans know is the renegade Democrat who gave a speech at the Republican National Convention that bordered on frothing lunacy.
		It is obvious that the Democratic Party has been losing elections because the average middle-class American no longer identifies with this party.

	Page 3 -- Zell Miller: The Conscience of a Conservative Democrat by Terence P. Jeffrey
		The book is selling well for good reason: Witty and tightly written, it is the clearest explanation yet of how the Democratic Party lost touch with old-time American values, while turning its back on the new American South (see "Conservative and Democrat").
		In other words, the way you see things now, with the Democratic Party positioned the way it is, the only chance they really have of electing a President is to win all the Western states, all the Northeastern states, some of the big states in the Midwest.
		Some, who actually read the book—not in leadership positions with the national Democratic Party—but I'm talking about state legislators and I can say some in the Senate and the House, I remember one saying to me, "Right on"—or "Right as Rain." I think is what he said: "Right as Rain." [Laughter] But not very much.
