I'm socially liberal, but fiscally conservative.

Kind of a tight rope act isn't it? I'm not saying it can't be done (I dunno)but don't the two sometimes clash?

The two sometimes clash? Try the one sometimes clashes.

Conservatives are spending like kids in a candy store.

"Fiscal conservative" has a whole new meaning now... and it aint exactly flattering.

I've seem one, it would make a good paper weight. Many films interest me but I could care less about the film industry and who gets what kudos. Did Moore win an oscar? I couldn't tell you.

LOL

You'll have to teach me a little about libertarian policy. I mean, I am guilty of assuming libertarians are NOT socially liberal. I understand their views on individual liberties and forgein policy.

Being fiscally conservative and socially liberal? It isn't that easy, nor is it that libertarian.

Let's talk about Welfare.

Yes, a documentary is supposed to have an unbiased view of the subject matter. Moore is so far to the left that he's almost off the horizon. The only people who consider his work documentary are left wing idiots and whackjobs. Notice the tards that are commenting that it's a documentary, like Thrawn and Nash. They don't get any more Kooky and dangerous than those two wingnuts.

BRILLIANT!

Sure it is. The term applies to tolerance, not government subsidy.

It's a gross oversimplification but it boils down to the belief that the government has no place in my bedroom and better have a good reason for being in my wallet.

Unfortunately, there is much about being socially liberal that directly conflicts with being fiscally conservative and even more so, libertarian. Again, I bring up welfare.

I identify more closely with libertarian than I do anything else.
