Closet Conservative

1. A person who thrives on a capitalist based income such as sales or rental revenue but prefers to vote for liberal figures or policies which may not align with their financial goals.

2. A person who does not openly admit that they would vote conservatively out of fear that they might be ostracized by their liberal peers.

1. I am an income property investor and I rely on a strong rental revenue stream to maintain my portfolio, however I feel that open borders are an important human right so I vote Liberal. You might call me a "Closet Conservative"

2. My friends are all staunch liberals, some of them are Antifa members so I can't admit to them that I voted Republican or they might disown me... or worse...

compassionate conservative

The phrase used by George Bush during his campagin to show his more affectionate side. It's like a redneck shooting cans with a paintball gun rather than a rifle to be more affection. To get a better understanding read the story of the lions:

One day, one lion said to another "compassionate predator...i like it"

Compassionate conservative- Americans are hopeful that in Bush's second term, the compassionate side will kick in.

Fake Conservative

A weak-minded, indoctrinated humanoid, with immutable groupthink tendencies in support of certain politicians despite glaringly anti-conservative voting records.

Fake Conservatives ADORE emotionally potent, oversimplifications of the issues and hold fast to a pathetic "team spirit" tribalistic attitude at all costs. Fake Conservatives worry not about sadistic social policies, only that they identify as Conservative, and to Hell with everyone else.

A Fake Conservative blindly supports individuals who have tended to vote against human rights, national sovereignty and personal freedoms.

cappuccino conservative

A self-centered individual with conservative political values and leanings who thinks nothing of spending upwards of $5 for a single cup of hot liquid (cappuccino) but is less likely to have empathy for the less fortunate by supporting social/political causes catering to the "underserved" because it does not provide a good return on their investment i.e., United Way, Habitat for Humanity or Planned Parenthood. The conservative belief is that they pulled themselves up by their bootstraps, so should others beneath them on lower rungs of the economic ladder.

The cappuccino conservative (CappuCon) turns a deaf ear to the plea for supporting efforts to raise the minimum wage because he worked hard for his six-figure salary and believed others should do the same. The cappuccino conservative also is not supportive of United Way efforts because too much of the money goes to programs for people on the other side of the tracks.
