Those aren't conservatives, those are republicans.

I think that was his point.

You can claim that Stalin's failure to create a worker's utopia was because "he was a Leninist, not a True Communist Who Adheres To Principles That I Will Selectively Modify So As To Preclude Anyone Who Actually Ruled In Soviet Russia," but the fact remains that Russia was communism in practice and the Frist-DeLay Congress was American "conservatism" in practice.

American conservatism is ALL ABOUT teh corporate welfare, after all the corporations paid for this government, they expect their kickbacks.

Btw, even Bush wants SCHIP to cover above the poverty line.

Good point. One thing that gets missed a lot, I think, is that this family is covered by the existing S-CHIP program. IIRC, Bush requested an increase in funding for it, but not to the level the Congress passed.
