This is not meant to be a poke at conservatives. It should be considered an opportunity to respond with why you seem "at war with" or against many things but may actually have positive reasons.
I will list some examples:
-against gay rights
-against a women's right to choose
-against the minimum wage
-against extending benefits to the unemployed in a recognized financial crisis
-against welfare
-against the Federal Reserve
-against the EPA
-against Public Education
-against Social Security
-against taxing the rich
-against regulations on Wall Street
-against Stimulus plans
-against religious freedom (except for Christians)
-against evolution
-against science
-against me being named king of the universe (this last one is especially irksome and inexplicable)

1. Gay rights: It's a moral abomination. Numerous scripture verses both in the Old and New Testament relate this. Yea, has God said? Yes.
2. Women's right to choose: No one is against a woman having freedom to choose. God gave Adam and Eve the right to choose. However, with each choice one cannot choose the consequences of either life or death (murder). Yea, has God said? Yes.
3. Minimum wage: It only raises the cost of services and products thereby presenting no distinguishable cost differential to the minimum wagers but a higher cost to the non-minimum wagers.
4. Extending benefits: Anyone and everyone unemployed is already in a "recognized" financial crisis.
5. Welfare: It is neither "well" nor "fair".
6. Federal Reserve: It is neither "Federal" nor does it have any "reserve".
7. EPA: It's rules and regulations are designed to keep itself well financed.
8. Public education: It's based on a Godless political forum.
9. Social Security: It's financial foundation is about to collapse.
10. Taxing the rich: A straight tax (such as 9%) on all people, companies, and businesses would put an equal burden on one and all.
11. Regulations on Wall Street: What would any sporting event look like if there were no rules and regulations by which it is to be governed?
12. Stimulus plans: If it does not "stimulate" free enterprise it is not a viable "plan".
13. Religious freedom for all (including Christians) who abide by the Constitution. This would automatically expel Sharia Law and its practitioners.
14. Evolution: Micro-evolution (small changes within a species) is a scientific fact by observation and experimentation. However, macro-evolution (one species of lower order changing into a completely different species of a higher order) is a scientific genetic impossibility.
15. Science: Who is against true science? If it conforms to scripture it is true; however, if it contradicts scripture it is "science falsely so called". God is the author of science so a true understanding of both science and His word are never in conflict with one another.
16. Against you being king of the universe: Sorry, there can be one and only one King of the universe and you aren't He. The One and only King of the universe is the King of kings and Lord of lords, Jesus Christ Himself. Yea, has God said? Yes.
[P.S. I am aware you asked this last question "tongue-in-cheek"; however, in a smaller way, this will be a fact for all those of us who are followers of Jesus Christ: "And has made us unto our God kings and priests; and we shall reign on earth." Revelation 5:10 Yea, has God said? Yes.]
