Reply #6: Conservatives also seem to believe now...

...despite their self-righteous religious rhetoric, that the Ends Justifies the Means. That explains their view of the 2000 election (can you imagine if Gore had won that way?), it explains their policy of "pre-emptive" war with regards to Iraq, it explaines Abu Graib and Guantanamo. So go ahead and lie, cheat, steal, kill (basically, violate every single one of the Ten Commandments), and it's cool so long as the "good guys" win. Unfortunately, I must have skipped that part of the Bible, or perhaps there's a secret abridged version just for Neo-conservatives that we don't know about? :P
