I Thought Conservatives Were Supposed To Be, Well, Conservative

The senate just voted to give Bush $50 billion more dollars for his wars. What happened to the fiscally conservative Republican Party?

Could we have avoided this war? Yes. Could we have predicated the damage Hurricane Katrina would have on New Orleans? The experts did! What's with the spending "conservatives"? Spend, spend, spend. A no-bid Halliburton contract here. A no-bid Bechtel contract there. Geesh! You'd think this country was run by a group of Park Avenue housewives.

Here are some articles on the subject.
