District 11 congressional candidate Mike Conaway says he's 'a proven conservative'.

But the public positions he has taken tell a different story:

Mike Conaway supports a 'health of the mother' exception on abortion. Everyone who knows anything about the fight for the lives of the unborn in Washington knows that a 'health of the mother' exception is a ruse used by liberals to kill pro-life legislation, or to make it utterly meaningless. This position makes him functionally pro-choice, because most of the abortions performed today in America can be justified under that immoral policy.

Mike Conaway voted for every tax increase in his only previous elected office.

Mike Conaway very publically supported a liberal El Paso Democrat over a conservative Republican.

Mike Conaway has repeatedly voiced his support for the latest proposed amnesty for illegals.

Mike Conaway, when asked in a public debate in Brownwood about the Federalist Papers, didn't know a thing about them.

Mike Conaway, when asked on a radio call-in show what he thought of Sandra Day O'Conner's written opinion that 'international law' should supercede American law, replied that he agreed with Justice O'Conner.

Mike Conaway, when asked whether he would be willing to support legislation granting special protection based on 'sexual orientation', said that he was 'undecided'.

Mike Conaway supports continued funding for the National Endowment for the Arts.

Mike Conaway supports new programs to provide government child care.


Is Mike Conaway a 'proven conservative'?

You decide.
