My conservative principles

Hello! and welcome to my blog.

At a time when both political parties are giving in more and more to liberal ideology, I would like to issue a challenge to our nations true roots. I will blog more on that later.

I am going to name a few principles that will guide my posts. This is not an all inclusive list but it is a good start.

A sincere originalist adherence to the constitution of the United States.

A belief that America is at at her best, when the governments are small and unobtrusive.

A belief that capitalism and free Enterprise are the backbone of American prosperity.

A belief that freedom is a right granted by God to all men, and that we as the greatest and most blessed nation on earth, must stand for freedom wherever it is in jeopardy.

A belief that taxes should be low, and that government should regularly tighten its belt, just so they remember that money does not grow on trees.

A belief that morality and decency is required for a civilized people, and those principles must not be abandoned by our laws.

A belief that while you cannot legislate morality, you can and should legislate against immorality.

A belief that America is open to all immigrants who want to come here, but we expect you to do so legally, learn English and do not live off the taxpayers.

A belief that everyone, who physically can, should work and provide for themselves and their own families and not live off of the backs of hardworking Americans.
