It appears that conservatives are not really about "being conservative" after all. They can change views when they get PAID to change views. In other words they have no real principles. It makes you wonder WHO is paying them to destroy health care!
In the three-page letter asking for money on June 30, the conservative group backed FedEx. After FedEx says it rejected the offer, Keene signed onto a two-page July 15 letter backing UPS. Keene did not return a message left on his cell phone.
Maury Lane, FedEx’s director of corporate communications, said: “Clearly, the ACU shopped their beliefs and UPS bought.”
That's right KevK. Did you listen to the c-span debate on the cap&trade ?
People got up who were previously opposed to it, thanked Waxman for either the money he gave them for their pet projects or the appointments he gave them to powerful committees and then voiced their approval for the bill.
It was disgusting to listen to how our government operates.

If that's what the ACU did then say the ACU, not conservatives....."conservatives" means all conservatives, the way you used it.
ALEXANDRIA, VA - The following statement is being issued by ACU Executive Vice President Dennis Whitfield due to Politico's unverified accusations contained in an article and a false headline editors chose to publish today regarding the NLRB:
"An article containing a false headline has been published by Capitol Hill newspaper Politico today regarding an issue with expansion of the National Labor Relations Board.
This article concerns two letters; one issued by ACU and another issued by a separate organization.
Mr. David Keene's name was on a letter prepared by another organization. This was a personal decision on his part and he was not representing ACU at the time. No permission was given by ACU, and no logo was provided by ACU, to the organization who issued the letter in question.
ACU's policy position on this issue has not changed and it will not change.
ACU's positions on important policy issues have never been for sale.
ACU does not support moving businesses under the jurisdiction of the NLRB or expanding the federal government's power, reach or authority under the NLRB.
In fact, as we pointed out last year when auto bailouts were first proposed, the actions of organized labor in Detroit helped lead to a downfall of America's storied auto industry. This is a clear example of what can happen when organized labor extends its fingers too far into American business.
In this regard, ACU stands with the policy that FedEx should not be placed under the NLRB.

Please don't present facts, he finds them very confusing.

It's not just conservatives. Politics = Money, plain and simple.
When W was governor of Texas he was strongly pro-choice. When he found out the so-called "Christian Right" was flush and needed a horse to back, he became outspokenly pro-life.
They only see the light when they smell the cash.
