If he's for higher taxes there's no way he's conservative.
btw if you want an example of someone who's not solidly left or right note the following from the website of Talk
Radio Network's Tammy Bruce (who fills in on occasion for her TRN colleague Laura Ingraham):
"Tammy Bruce is an openly gay, pro-choice, gun owning, pro-death penalty, voted-for-President Bush authentic feminist. A lifelong Democrat, in the 1990s she worked to help elect Senators Feinstein and Boxer, and aided the Clinton for President campaign. Before we knew he was a sexual compulsive and "did not have sexual relations with that woman."
yikes!

Tammy Bruce is okay in my book, most of the time. She makes some good points and is entertaining. Which in todays pop culture world of politics is a most important attribute for any talkinghead pundit.
Wouldn't even be commenting on Dennis Miller, except I really find the man revolting. Not only is he a rotten comedian, he's a phony, attempting to hoodwink some poorly informed conservatives into thinking, he's one of us. When he obviously is one of them..... a liberal that is. Maybe he can pass as a hybrid liberal-libertarian. Also called, a liberaltarian. LOL I see him more as a jerkface.

I listened to Tammy Bruce regularly on weekends last summer and she was very funny and sounded like a hardcore conservative. Her views on the 2nd Amend., the WOT, a lot of family values issues and so forth were very cogent, informed and solidly backed with logic.
Then one day she explained her Pro-Choice stance which I had never heard her mention before. She took common sense, logic, rationality and fact (all the things she completely relies on for her conservative views), laid all that out quite crisply, and promptly dumped it in the trash can. She ended with something like "that's just the way I feel about it." I haven't listened to her since. AFAIC that's not mere hypocrisy that's schizophrenia.
