Re: Meaning Of Conservative
Since the founders founded a republic (republican) and not a democracy (democrat) the tennants of the Republicans has traditionally been more conservative than those of the Democrats.
If those are the tenants of the Republican Party, does that make them the lessor of two evils?

Re: Meaning Of Conservative
Yes, Dr Adequate, the Republicans have emmerged into nothing but the lesser of the two evils.
It's a joke. Tenants ... lessor ...
Did anyone get it?
GO un-official TEA PARTY!
Oh, them. Do you favor the Mad Hatter or the March Hare wing of the movement?

Re: meanings of words
Certainly it can't be about modern evangelical Biblical fundies who follow the non-violent tennants of Jesus and his apostles.
You're overgeneralizing --- Christian tenants are a diverse bunch. As Jesus said, "In my Father's house are many mansions".
