Icon16 New Conservative English Dictionary

Since the libs believe words mean whatever it is they say it means in the current context of what they're twisted thinking tells them, I thought I should let them know that conservatives can play that game too. Here is a current list of apporpriate word definition as understood by a majority of conservative Americans across this great nation:

Abortion – 1) the indiscriminate murder of innocent unborn children regardless of race, creed, or color; 2) infanticide (see: holocaust)

Conservative – 1) a person who believes in the concept of equal opportunity for all; 2) a believer in freedom (see: Ronald Reagan) 3) someone who believes that government which governs least governs best (see: Thomas Paine)

Democrat – 1) a person that can change the rules in the middle of the game or election (see: Florida, 2000; 2) a leftists; 3) a fascist; 4) a socialist; 5) a communist; 6) a person who supports the ideas that sexually deviant behavior is normal

Hero – 1) a life saver; 2) Men and women of the armed services, police services and fire fighting personnel as well as first responders; 3) people who vote republican

Liberal – 1) a person who hates truth, justice, liberty and anything American 2) someone who loves to raise your taxes but hates to pay them himself; 3) someone who thinks that first amendment rights means going to a school graduation and not having to listen to someone say a prayer

Lie – 1) words spoken by democrats (see: Bill Clinton)

Marriage – 1) Matrimony between a man and a woman only.

Media – 1) Group of mostly liberal individuals bent on the distruction of the United States

Patriot – 1) a person who loves his country and believes in what it stands for (See conservative, republican); 2) a person willing to lay down his life to sacrifice for the good of others (see: US Serviceman)

Pro-Choice – 1) a phrase used by immoral people who want to kill innocent unborn children

Pro-Life – 1) a phrase use by honest people who believe in the sanctity of human life

Progressive – 1) to make progress; 2) code words for dishonest people who want to steal your money and impose their will upon others, (see: democrat, communist)

Republican – 1) a person registered in the Republican Party; 2) a person who speaks the truth; 3) a hero or a heroin; 4) a conservative

Truth – 1) words spoken by republicans

Conservatives may feel free to add definitions to this dictionary as needed.

I realize (or rather, hope) you're joking.

But your list does a good job of debunking your "dictionaries are part of the liberal conspiracy" thesis.

For instance, note your definition of "Democrat." Then note Merriam-Webster's definition of "Republican".
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/republican

Or their definition of "conservative."
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/conservative
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/conservatism

Or their definition of pro-choice and pro-life:
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pro-choice
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pro-life
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/antiabortion

Note how all of their definitions are value-neutral and restrict themselves to the clearest, most boiled-down explanation of each meaning.

Thank you for disproving your own premise. Now have fun with your thread.

Well this seems like it will create a problem for conservatives.
You guys want your own language... but you're also the ones most likely to make people use English only.
How are you guys going to be able to use your own language?

I definitely think you've found a money-maker here. I suggest you get a million copies published and sell them.

Chutzpah Award of 2008! Of all the nerve - imagine a LIBERAL daring to accuse anyone else of wanting their own language!

Yes, I am joking, but your links do a great deal to support my thesis that dictionaries are part of the liberal conspiracy.

Note how democrats are described as, "one who practices social equality" but republicans only get a, "one that favors or supports a republican form of government". I guess republicans don't believe in equality of any kind.

Pro-life refers you to the definition of anti-abortion and gives no other definition for it, while Pro-choice is defined as, "favoring the legalization of abortion" and doesn't refer you to the definition of pro-abortion. Symantics is everything.

That's the difference between big "D" and little "d". The Democrats picked a name that has other meanings, one of which is, indeed, the idea of "social equality." The reference is to "social democracy" -- in which a socialist government is established through democratic means.

Quote:

I'm pretty sure you don't believe in social equality. You probably believe in equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome.

Quote:

That would be because "pro-choice" doesn't mean "pro-abortion." Just like "agnostic" doesn't mean "atheist" or "antireligion."

Quote:

Particularly if viewed through a partisan glass. You consider it a slight that the definition for "republican" doesn't include a concept that you oppose.

I've heard some totally strange conspiracy rants in my day. This one is Top 10 easily.
