Define conservative.
"when socialism fails, blame capitalism and demand more socialism." - A friend
"You know the difference between libs and right-wingers? Libs STFU when evidence refutes their false beliefs." - Another friend

Well, let's be honest, the overwhelming majority here lean right. We have a few lefties who pop in here and there. We definitely have a small handful of middle of the road types. We have a large group of "conservative" by the traditional definition of many, many moons ago. Then we have a small handful of chicken hawks, far right nutcases, just like myself, who believe pretty much everything the left does sucks, and pretty much all of the conservative ideas/principles are what we should embrace. Like FJ said, some might debate specifically what makes one a conservative, as the definition does vary to an extent. But I'm definitely a chicken hawk who wants to see bad people around the world die... I think similar to me is Nighttrain, we always had eerily similar opinions. Outside of that I am hesitant to place labels on others, but gladly label myself!
“You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colin." Need I say more?” - Chris Rock
Not me.
"I am allergic to piety, it makes me break out in rash judgements." - Penn Jillette
"I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with a lot of pleasure." - Clarence Darrow
"The man who invented the telescope found out more about heaven than the closed eyes of prayer ever discovered." - Robert G. Ingersoll
As a diehard liberal, I know what a real conservative is. I judge conservatives as much by their values as their tenacity and ability to define and defend such.
To me, the DP poster who most fits that term would be Nighttrain. Drummond is a very good English conservative type.
Perianne, to answer your question of who is the most conservative....
There are many great conservatives here. I love them all.
I am probably one of the most socially-Conservative.
