Conservative principles (translated):
Get government regulation out of our lives (except for regulating women's reproductive organs and the private sexual behavior of military personnel).
Cut taxes (for the wealthy).
Reduce the deficit (except when cutting taxes - see above).
End welfare (except corporate welfare).
Preserve public lands (for logging and mining companies).
Protect the flag (from those who wish to exercise the freedom it represents).
Protect the right to bear arms (against each other with semiautomatic assault rifles).
Ensure wholesome television (by cutting funding for shows like ``Sesame Street'').
Put prayer back in public schools (with the prayer to be selected by Pat Robertson).
Limit terms (but not now that we are in office).
