The fact some conservatives heap praise on Jones for being pro-life and anti-illegal alien also reminds me of how Peter King fooled so many conservative groups for over a decade after the Clinton impeachment. Throw 'em red meat about how pro-life and anti-illegal you are, and they will overlook the fact you routinely side with the Dems and stab the GOP in the back on a weekly basis. Jones is worse however, since Peter King at least had the "national security" and "anti-Muslim" card to play, post 9/11 Jones doesn't even have that, he votes with the Dems to dismantle the military and sucks up to pro-Muslim groups under the guise of being "anti-war". I guess he's only anti-war if the ones doing the conquest aren't jihadists.
I don’t particularly like Walter Jones myself, but we have enough establishment hacks in the House Republican conference.
