My Political Worldview

when it comes to a political view point, I would consider myself a conservative. The main reasons are moral standards. I belive abortion is wrong, that life is precious and a baby in a mothers womb is just as much alive as you or me. With this being said it comes down to a matter of pro life or pro choice. Pro choice to me translates to pro death, which in reality is what is happening in an abortion, killing a baby. I say this because it seems to me that if you choose not to have an abortion there are more choices available. there is adobtion, giving up custody of the baby, or keeping him/her and raising him or her.
Another reason why i am conservative is i believe marriage should be defined as a man and a woman.
Of course there are divisions in the republican party about these issues but generally speaking i feel that the right believes in these morals more than the left.
The Democratic party is more split on more issues. There are the far left like Michael Moore, who hate America. And there are those who don't think that way at all. Also democrats can't decide whether they are for or against the war in Iraq. Some democrats i have talked to just get angry when you disagree with them. an example of this is during the last presidential election we had a Bush sign in our yard, the next day we found it in a dumpster. we put it back up, the next morning it was gone altogether. i heard a story where someone whoose car bore a republican bumper sticker,and thier car got egged. At a republican convention i went to, while we were leaving there were protesters just screaming in our faces. Now i know that this does not go for every democrat or liberal, but i don't know any storys where republicans egg democratic cars or steal opposing party signs. in my opinion the democratic party has to unite and show some signs of maturity.
