- | I'm sorry, but according to Peter da Silva, the word "Conservative" is
- | used almost everywhere to mean ecological-conservation etcetera, not a
- | political viewpoint. Unfortunately, this means that you can't possibly be
- | right in stating that "conservative" has a political meaning in England
- | and Scotland.
-
- You and Peter can certainly feel free to snipe at each other as long as
- you like ... I hope you excuse me from any participation, though.

- | It would also have nothing at all to do with the original point of the
- | CFD, to discuss issues viewed as "patriotic" by members of the American
- | political right.
-
- Perhaps the original focus was too narrow. The question of the creation
- of a conservative newsgroup has been raised on the alt.rush-limbaugh
- newsgroup -- I thought that this discussion was related to that. Would
- the originator of the RFD care to comment? Can/should we broaden the
- scope or just begin a new RFD on talk.culture.conservative?

- Happy New Year to you all...
