I don't think there is any true conservative who supports CFR, the prescrip. drug bill, or the bloated budgets, and certainly not the "amnesty" program.

That said, not nearly enough has been made (and the admin. is at fault) of Bush's PHENOMENAL pro-life record. He has issued four separate executive orders that have, for the first time ever, actually reduced the numbers of abortions that could be "impacted" by the federal government, not to mention the PBA signature. This is totally ignored.

Overall, though, I'm with you, that national security is such a high priority above these other mis-steps that it's a "no call." Think of George Washington, and how Thomas Jefferson--Mr. Small Government himself---supported him and "compromised" to create a government-sponsored bank, all because of Washington's other exceptional attibutes and character.

In short, the government's #1 job is national defense. If it does nothing else, that is the one function it should perform.
