"Conservative" does not necessarily mean knee-jerk support for spending thousands of American lives and hundreds of billions of dollars to prop up a ruling government of Iraq which is dominated by the psychopathic gang of murderers known as the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) and the Islamic Al Dawa Party, who are the very same Islamic Terrorist Parties which bombed the US & French Embassies in Kuwait, and murdered 241 United States Marines in Beirut in 1983.

Perhaps you believe that the US should continue spending buckets of blood and treasure supporting this Islamic Terrorist thug-regime in Iraq; but Ron Paul's principled belief that we should not does not make him any less of a "Conservative". His early support and long-time friendship with Ronald Reagan, his record in Congress, and his 100% rating from The Conservative Index, speak for themselves.

Whatever........ Just don't blame the President when we get hit again, blame these tools.

I strongly disagree with your views on Iraq, but I will concede that ones views on such transcend the whole liberal/conservative spectrum. "Liberal" and "conservative" are terms to describe ones view on the role of government in domestic affairs. In the real world, I know plenty of liberals who support the war and a bunch of conservatives that oppose it.
