You already have a source. I would love to ask you without your computer in front of you what works of Burke you read and what you thought of them. You had better write Wikipedia and tell them they are wrong. We will be waiting anxiously for the rewrite.
If I were to agree with you. Then we would both be wrong. As of Apr 5, 2015 10:26 pm I have 880 posts. Used to have over 1,000

Aren't you a clever git, aces? Have you read any Burke?
Out of curiosity, what was his plan for the slave trade in his "Negro Code"? (Yes, I've read that one?) How did Burke feel about democracy? (Check "Reflections on the Revolution in France". Yeah, I've read that one, too.) Who did Burke say should have political power? (Give you a hint: he felt about inherited political power the same way he felt about inherited wealth.) Burke is the father of conservatism because he strongly argued to conserve the existing structures of power.

I have never read any Burke.
Everything you just posted about Burke is summarized on the net with a few googles.

These governments with their banker friends have managed to accumulate huge debts and say we have managed to accumulate in recent decades, huge debts, as if it is us that did it. Then they quote from Edmund Burke, and say, “Society is indeed a contract." Don’t you know my boy? "The state is a partnership not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead, and those who are to be born."
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Read carefully, Danny. I have never once told you what you believe. Be honest.
Burke's main political objective was to conserve the existing social order. He believed in inheritance rights not because they were central to liberty, but because they were central to conserving the existing social structures. This explains his strange attitude toward slavery. He was morally opposed to slavery, but was worried that abolishing it would disturb the existing political and economic order. He argued that laws should improve the way that slaves were treated (but still laid out the rules for corporal punishment of disobedient slaves); he never dared to suggest that slavery should be abolished. By the way, he was opposed to democracy as we think of it, too. He was a member of parliament at a time when only propertied males were allowed to vote. Those were the only people he believed himself to be representing. Burke was all about conserving peerages, monarchy and state religion. But what do I know? Danny says that individual property rights of all citizens is a fundamental feature of all conservatives. All I have is evidence, and we know how little that matters.

Funny how you never used the word "property" which is essential in the conservative viewpoint. That's pretty much what "essential" means.

Try this John. http://www.takeovergop.com/whatconservativesbelieve.php
"The fifth amendment to the Constitution says: nor [shall any person] be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. Remember again what the Declaration of Independence says: "all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." In the 5th amendment the founders have added the Right to own "property" as an unalienable Right. Conservatives believe that no man is free if he is restricted from owning and possessing property. Capitalism is rooted in the unalienable Right of the individual to own property. Communism, by contrast, is the belief that it is the Right of government to own property. The Bill of Rights limits the property rights of government. Property does not just refer to real estate, it refers to anything that is lawful to own: your home, your car, your TV, your computer, ANY possessions that you have, including your guns and money." But keep telling me what I believe. After all you are the all knowing. It is very clear that property does not matter to conservatives.

You are telling me property is not part of it. Well now you are shown it clearly is and now you call names and obfuscate and duck dodge and hide.
You are getting more pathetic and predictable. But go ahead keep telling me what I believe. It is your strong suit even if you have never gotten it right. Now call me names instead of admitting wrong.

You said something about the definition of "conservatism". I disagreed with your definition. This has nothing to do with telling you what you believe. It has to do with the meaning of a word.

Well John what I believe is the definition of the word. Sorry parse and spin all you like you are full of it. Too bad that people don't fit into your little boxes huh?
Don't bother with the money. You never would do it anyhow. Property rights are a part of it.

What aggression exactly? Show new aggression please.
That is only your little tactic to confuse and label things so they fit your narrative. It is not true. But that never bothers you.
