All defense spending bills go through the Senate as well. Furthermore, Senator Bunning has served on both the Armed Services Committee and the Veterans Affairs Committee where he would have voted on hundreds of pieces of legislation.

Bunning has always been a strong fiscal conservative. Do a bit of research on his debates against Greenspan and Bernake regarding fiscal policy.

Bunning has always been a strong fiscal conservative.

I respectfully disagree. Bunning has had no problem putting Iraq and Af/Pak war expenditures on the country's Chinese credit card. To me, that's not fiscal conservatism. That's just picking and choosing what you want to prtend to be "fiscally conservative" about.
