"I am a conservative, BUT." And it is that big BUT that makes him a seminar caller.
I am a Southerner, a conservative, and what the press cynically labels a Bible-believing Christian. Ive voted in every election since the day I turned 18. I drank the Kool-Aid of Reaganism.

Where once Republicans stood for states rights and ceding powers to local governments, they now stand for, well, the opposite. No Child Left Behind forces narrow-minded, federally mandated priorities on local. Its a law that contains so much hand-fisted big government, it made Sen. Ted Kennedy smile ear to ear. And when the Terri Schiavo life support case made the news last year, Republicans in Congress rushed to interfere, steamrolling over the rule of law and local courts in the process. It was what former Speaker of the House Dick Armey rightfully called the chilling act of an arbitrary and imperial Congress.
