A lot of us got a permanent bellyful of "antiwar" (actually anti-American) peace creeps in the 1970s. We are not likely to abide such a despicable attack on our nation again as was perpetrated by the Ted Kennedies then. Further, the United States having an improved value of its stock holdings is nice but hardly the most important much less the only reason for the use of a robust military prepared to kill those who need killing and to break their things.
Go off to some college coffee house and nitpick your concerns over whether Bush is being "consistent" or whether he is "even-handed" or whether our entire universe is a molecule in the thumbnail of a giant (Animal House) or whatever but do not, whatever you do, refer to proposals to interfere with interventionism in favor of the discredited and utterly obsolete foreign policy of isolationism as any form of conservatism. If you lie down with dogs (no offense to our actual canine friends), you cannot complain of getting up with fleas.
