So liberalism means being communist? Wrong. I feel that conservatism is much more comparable to communism than liberalism. Let's look into this. The Republican Party and its conservative mega-majority feel that . In fact a standard-bearer for the local Republican Party, Mr. Joe Gass, says that the separation of church and state is not in the Constitution and thus is not legally applicable. Mr. Gass is correct in saying that the actual term is not used but it is implied when the freedom of religion is bestowed upon all Americans. Therefore the government cannot deem one religion more correct than the other and cannot allow religion to mingle in the affairs of the state. Conservatives also support censorship of pornography, critical speech of America during a "time of war," and other forms of mass communication. They also feel that Americans should not receive a fair impartial trial and instead they feel that the presumed guilty should have a hasty trial so they can fry for their sins. Detainees are guilty until presumed innocent which is so opposite of American values. These positions are alarmingly similar to Soviet decrees that oultawed all religion, censorship of all media in the country, and a rampant use of the death penalty (much like President Bush's record of capital punishment in Texas). So would one rather have liberals who whould protect one's personal freedoms or a conservative who would unjustly curb the things that make us Americans? I know where I stand, what about you?

Capitalism and Socialism can work well together...
... In sort of a Host/Parasite relationship.

There are plenty of Capitalist societies, economically, that are culturally socialist. They are not polar opposites.
