Michael medved in the second hour of his program today shredded the fair-weather Republicans who have turned on Dubya lately.

Medved's point is that no president, even Ronald Reagan can afford to be idoelogically pure, that Dubya has been conservative where it counts and the cases where he has strayed from conservatism are insignificant in the overall scheme of things.
