I Am A Conservative, I Conserve - By Robert Bateman

Robert Bateman is an internationally renowned artist and naturalist.

    Now that was well said! The neo-conservatives believe that conservation comes in the form of setting up a system so that the vast majority (middle and lower classes) have to do without through economic coercion. Neo-Liberals believe in the \'liberation\' of corporations and big money to run roughshod over everyone and everything! As for deteriorating \'family values\', this has come as a result of what was mentioned above, as well as the assault on social and economic justice! Make people poor, desperate, angry, and without hope, and watch what happens!

    Hi Dave. I tried to sign up on the weekend, but I guess I should have during the week. I\'m one of the other opinionated people on the former, and haven\'t bothered to try and sign up until now.


    For the editor: Sorry about the link -this was taken from the Globe and Mail, Saturday, December 13th, in the \"Comment\" portion of the front section.

    Also, the article isn\'t too long, so I wasn\'t sure of the site\'s policy, although other sites I\'ve frequented do the smae thing. (Linking articles.)

    Thanks for the info. It\'s not a huge problem or anything. Basically I just try to avoid posting copyrighted articles in full, for legal reasons, which is why I prefer an excerpt which includes the link, or even better, a personal comment/summary and a link. See the FAQ for details.
