Why would Conservative Politicians vote for the War in Iraq and then claim to be "Pro-Life"?

We Answered:

Because they care more about an American embryo or fetus then they do about the hundreds and thousands of innocent Iraqis that have to live with the conflict on a daily basis and thousands more that have been killed in the conflict.

Which when you look at it from a neutral angle it seems to be about as anti pro-life as you can get.

the republican voters don't get it. There cant technicaly be a republican official. If they are for limited govornment- they would not paricipate and reduce governent.

Vivian Said:

Why do conservative people tend to vote Republican?

We Answered:

Like many human beings, your ideas and views can't be shoehorned into a single political party. In other words, you actually think for yourself, rather than just regurgitate the dogma of one party's leadership.

Today, the Republican party focuses much more on social conservatism, than fiscal conservatism. Their horrible spending and fiscal policies prove that. They have also distanced themselves from Goldwater Republicanism, and embrace more government-enforced morality. Social morales are now the backbone of the party, all else is secondary.

The Democrats don't fit your points of view either, they are still a tax and spend party, with a left-wing political philosophy still mired in the 1970's.

A lot of conservatives today, focus a great deal on the bible, and bringing the US government in line with what their churches want. This tends to diminish focus on other conservative ideals like limited government interference, controlled spending, civil rights and freedom. Indeed, the fact most conservatives consider the ideas of strong civil liberties a "liberal" issue these days, shows just how far the Republicans have strayed from their conservative roots of the 50's and 60's.

My recommendation is not to worry why "conservatives" vote the way they do. Certainly don't worry whether you fit some sort of shoehorn label either. Simply think for yourself, as you are doing, and then search for candidates that comes as close to your beliefs by reviewing their voting record.
