They are NOT conservatives
I'd like to take one exception to what everyone has written here. The people who are slavishly programmed by right-wing media are NOT conservatives.
Since when does Fox News and Rush Limbaugh get to decide what conservative means and doesn't? Environmentalism, fiscal responsibility, upholding the law and constitution, and isloationist foreign policy all USED to be conservative traits. All of that and more has been tossed aside for the goal of making money for a privileged few and keeping the likes of Bush in power. That is NOT being a conservative.
If anyone manages to take down Bush and put the right-wing pundits like O'Reilly in their place, it will be with the help if not outright action of true conservatives. I just hope they wake up someday.
