I’m not one who got ‘suckered’ by Democrats, but frankly, we all got suckered by Republicans too and they paid for that at the ballot box.

No. Most of the Republican we lost in 2006 were good conservatives.

Actually, not really. A LOT were in solidly Republican seats, but most were very politically correct. Of the 180 sponsors of English as an official language, for instance, only a handful lost. 2008 was more damaging to conservatives, but only because their challengers ran still farther to the right.

Some were. The house in general was fairly conservative, but with the ideologically incoherent Bush at the head of the party, they expanded government and did the opposite of what they claimed to stand for. They failed us and betrayed us. Very few, even the ‘good conservatives’ can truly say they weren’t guilty.
