Are there any conservative scientists?

Yes, there a conservative scientists as well.  Not surprising, there are also apolitical scientists that just want to focus on science.

Theocratic Conservative.  Otherwise known as the religious right.

No.  There is no party that is truly conservative anymore.  We can't even protect our borders. We can't even win in Iraq.  Why?  Politics.  I am from the political standpoint of Winston Churchill.  He crushed his enemies with brute force.  He was considered on the fringe of the right in his time but if he was Prime Minister from the start rather than Neville Chamberlain, Hitler would have been stopped rather than appeased.  I urge anyone who considers themselves to be a republican to read Churchill's biography.  Find out how a true conservative thought.  He did nothing short of save this world.

zero percent.  anyone who claims to be a scientist but who disagrees is not really a scientist.  maybe a corporate propagandist claiming to be a scientist, or an idiot who will pretend to be anything not realizing that titles have meaning.  any scientist or any person who pays attention to what researchers say has known for years that we are dramatically altering our climte.  it's not new information.

Well, yes. But that's only one side of the coin. These same social conservatives are very liberal when it comes to pensions and such.

I'm conservative.  I had an ecclectic educational mix of private and public schooling, followed by private and State college.  \n\nI observed that liberalism wasn't economically feasible, and didn't factor in human nature.  I studied world history and thought our form of government was the best.\n\nSomething made us different from every other nation, and I thought it was worth trying to preserve.

I think it would take a lack of common sense to vote conservative..

Obviously a mixed lot but mostly LIBERAL revolution is a liberal concept, traditionalists (conservatives) would have kept the status quo

I believe yes. Today we read studies of ancient scientists like Demokritos who spoke about energy, space and physics or like the greek doctor Ippocrates and we find out that the were right in the most of what they were saying. Is really amazing that they  were so beyond their age!\nIs really worth to find and study their work.

One would have to be a hardcore communist to think that those news media organizations you listed above have a conservative bent.\n\nThey are very much liberal.

I disagree with you 100 percent, but I think I have a book that will fill the bill....\n\nThe Professors: The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America (Hardcover) by David Horowitz \nHorowitz is a dis-illusioned liberal from the 1960s who has taken up the conservative cause.

Absolutely.  Just check out the dissent and repression on college campuses (especially Harvard) when more conservative leaning guest speakers are invited to address campus gatherings.

I wouldn't go that far. I know several Republicans who are quite firm in their beliefs (most of them can't stand Bush, but that's another issue) I'd think of it more as theory vs. reality - it's easy to believe something until you see the effect it has on people. Like the old joke goes, a conservative is a liberla who's been mugged.

This is a moot argument. There is no way possible to determine the average IQ of either group. It is a moving target there are always people switching between parties. There is probably no measurable difference.\n\nAs for an earlier comment about graduate students being liberals. That may be true for liberal arts students, but engineering, sciences, and business majors are by and large conservative. Also once people graduate and are out in the real world for a few years they tend to become conservative. My wife and I both have post graduate degrees and so do our sons. We are all conservative.
