I looked forward to being a nurse for so long....my second thoughts aren't because of nurses eating their own (I have never seen that!) or hours or mean docs (haven't seen that either)... it is because the only conservatives I have met are my fellow military vets.
The vast majority of nurses I have met (or been attacked by) have been liberals who treat me like I am insane because I am a conservative! Wow!
So....out of curiousity, how many conservatives are on this board???
I'm more of a liberal, but don't really align with one party. Politicians all have their own agendas. I used to be more conservative but I cannot support a party that denies loving consenting adults from getting married or anyone having a say over their own bodies. Plus, I am not religious/am a bit antireligious and that clashes with the conservative views. Or at least that's what Rachel Maddow tells me. lol
Thank you for starting this forum, FLmomof5! I was beginning to lose hope!
I could tell FL mom of 5 was a conservative without her even saying so based on the content of a post about visitation rights of LGBT people some years back.
Here's another ... and desperately looking for a little less socialism in my BSN education. Trying to find some balance ... is there a conservative blog anywhere?

Specializes in Peds/outpatient FP,derm,allergy/private duty.
This thread has been revived so the original people may not tespond but I would also like to hear someone explain how their BSN program teaches socialism.
Very fiscally conservative, pro-baby's right to life, demand personal responsibility, don't care if gay people get married (but won't fund it), don't care if MJ is made legal and regulated (but don't smoke it), think drug laws/sentences are too draconian (spent most of adult life in Tx Prison System), think government is too intrusive in almost every aspect of our lives, and my guns will have to be taken from my cold, dead hands.
AND, I don't care about anyone else's opinion enough to argue about it. Think what you will...this is a free country and you have the right to be wrong. :)
While you would consider me way far to your left, you'd be surprised on how much we agree on. I'd join just to debate. I find it hard to discuss politics these days mostly because folks just seem to repeat out-of-context sound bites without actually understanding the implications of the statement. Especially when it comes to the Constitution. And the actual meaning of the word "compromise".
