Typical Bushbot. I do not mind spending money buying things that kill people and destroy things vis a vis defense. I do mind spending money on AIDS in Africa, NEA, more money on Medicare and prescription drug benefit for people who can well afford to buy their own damn Viagra, farm subsidies...

Get the picture?

I got the picture. I don't care for the NEA or Farm Subsidies. AIDS in Africa is an enormous human tragedy and he has made his case with me.

The fact is that he is staying consistent with his values. I like that, and so do most people.

Strategy -- Compremise when necessary, take issues away when possible and solve with a conservative solution, and move people away from the left incrementally.
