You're confused. Most conservatives support the flag burning amendment. Libertarians (who are often aligned with conservatives) are the ones who are rejecting it.

Well, I'm frequently confused, but with the war on teror, Iraq, budget deficits, spending bills due by 9/30, judicial nominations sitting, summer recess, and the election recess, I'm glad that "conservatives" know what is important to the voters....

You misspelled "demagogues".

I'm sure if you took a poll of the general population that would be correct. However, I think most conservative commentators, judges, and others with a career in law or politics are against the amendment. For example, I would hardly call Scalia a libertarian.
