Conservatives are just as socialist as liberals. They just have different programs, and don't call it socialism. They are also just as anti-constitution. If half their lip service were true, I'd probably still be willing to call myself a conservative.
Here's a typical conversation I've had on the topic of the constitution and immigration. I've had almost this exact conversation with about 15 different people now.
Me: "The Constitution doesn't give the federal government power to regulate immigration. The founding fathers didn't think it was the government's business to control who comes and goes."
"Conservative": "You're stupid."
Me: "Prove me wrong. Cite the Constitution."
After skimming the Constitution for the first time in their life, the conversation continues.
"Conservative": "Well, times were different then. They needed to populate the continent."
Me: "That's the same argument they use when they want to ban guns. They say times were different then. The 2nd Amendment only applied to muskets. You have such little respect for the Constitution that you don't even care to amend it. I always thought liberals were the ones who wanted to ignore the Constitution. "
