Conservative-Truths Re-Launches On Monday, January 2, 2012

On Monday, January 2, 2012 the Conservative-Truths website will be re-launching with new statistics comparing the differences between Conservative and Liberal States and Conservative and Liberal Presidencies. Every Monday a new Truth will be posted until the completion of the U.S. Presidential Election in November 2012.

Conservative-Truths originally ran weekly from Monday, January 3, 2005 through Monday, January 10, 2008. The site has been on hiatus since the 2008 Presidential Election because it would take 2-3 years for data to come in that would be representative of the new President’s policies. The new data is in and I’m happy to be able to start posting in time for the 2012 Presidential Election.

There are four categories that will be used for the posts:
Business & Economics
Health & Medicine
Law & Order
Society & Culture

If you were a regular reader of the site from 2005 to 2008, then I hope you will return. If you were unaware of the site before, then I hope you will enjoy the information I will be presenting.

I look forward to seeing you again in January 2012.

BTW, there is now a Facebook Page and a Google+ Page for the website. Please stop by and share in the discussions that happen in between the weekly postings.

Thank you.

Archive Of Old Site Deleted

Hello.

I have had no choice but to completely delete the old Conservative-Truths website. I tried to make it a read-only archive, but it continued to be hacked.

However, in order to still have the old statistics viewable I have posted PDFs of the documents that I originally used to make the posts.
Idea List 2005-2008: Used – This contains every post ever made on the old site.
Idea List 2005-2008: Unused – This contains potential posts that were never posted on the old site at the time the site went on hiatus.
Idea List 2005-2008: Unable To Use – This contains a series of potential posts that were unable to be used due to newer Census Bureau Statistical Reports coming out.

Obviously, none of the original comments from the old site could be archived, but I hope these documents will be useful until the site comes out of hiatus in January 2012.

Thank you.

Old Site Archive

Hello.

Unfortunately, I have discovered that there is no easy way to import the old pMachinePro based Liberal-Truths blog data into WordPress. Therefore, I will use WordPress for new postings and the old site will be archived at this link. I have made the old site read only, so there should hopefully be no more hijacking possibilities.

Thank you.

Transitioning to WordPress

Hello.

The pMachinePro software that Conservative Truths was operating on has fallen victim to a series of hijacking attacks. I am in the process of migrating the data from pMachinePro to WordPress.

Thank you for your patience.
