I am a conservative, a Gulf War veteran, a former law enforcement officer and I no longer relate to the party. Lets hope for an alternative in the future because the Democrats are worse.

No kidding... I was a Young Republican in college, worked on Bush I campaign and did a stint with the CIA. What the current administration has done over the last few years is criminal and is a complete slap in the face to the real Republican Party. What happened to financial conservatism and less government? We spend like lunatics and have more governmental agencies than ever.. A complete waste of money. I believe in a strong military, but I don't subscribe to a war in Iraq to protect the lasting interests of the Bush's family friends in Saudi Arabia. 3000 brave soldiers have lost their lives to support our thirst for Mid-East
oil and Osama Bin laden is still on the loose.. That is what we get for leaving the most powerful office in the world to a dim witted, AWOL, drunken, Born Again, not intellectually curious, closed minded buffoon.
