"In an interview with The Washington Times (published on May 17), Buchanan complains that he has little in common with many folks who say they’re conservatives. Buchanan: There are "a lot of people who call themselves conservatives but who, on many issues, I just don’t consider as conservative. They are big government people."

That's it in a nutshell. A minimal government that relies on a volunteer citizen militia will never wage any wars abroad.

Pat's view is that we have everthing we need in this country, and don't need to bother with any foreigners, other than to keep them out. That might work, but it will never catch on in this day and age.

Not very conducive to the world village concept that both parties buy into so much. Has our contributions to world welfare dropped off since we now have a Republican president? No, we still even send money to the Terrorist PLO Regime.
