An oxymoron is a phrase in which the meaning of one part is in diametric opposition to the meaning of another part. The political ideology of American conservatism is replete with oxymorons.
Good examples of an oxymoron are military intelligence, congressional action, common sense conservative, and business ethics. According to some other people, however, pro-life democrat, liberal Christian, conservative professor, dishonest conservative, and same-sex marriage are oxymorons.
