The Libertarians wouldn't have me.

I oppose abortion unless the life of the mother is in danger (I'd let the states decide if rape or incest should also be exceptions to a general prohibition on abortion).

I'm also 100% against the legalization of drugs, including marijuana.

I support a very active take-no-crap-from-any-tinpot foreign policy and would strongly back allies like Taiwan and Israel. I also was in support of taking out Milosevic in 1999.

I track with conservatives on many of the issues, save for an opposition to term limits (keep folks like Hyde, DeLay, Santorum, Watts, and some of these others in there as long as they want. If they're good, why toss them out?) and a VERY strong disagreement with the Tancredo-Buchanan-Malkin position on some parts of the immigration issue.

I support additional Border Patrol agents on the border, but I am of the opinion that the good people (which Tancredo himself has acknowledged exist) ought to be allowed to remain under a very strict protocol (a lot tougher than what GWB would propose).

(gunshy to Jimer:) You must be a libertarian. You are aware that the libertarian party supports open borders. Just like GWB.

It seems that Democrats and Republicans are all open-border, free-movement-of-people Libertarians now. Seriously, how many high-profile politicians are there who oppose massive immigration, or illegal immigration? This thread is about Tancredo, one of the highest-ranking immigration-limiters I know of. He's just one of 435 congressmen -- not even in leadership.
