The most important issues for conservatives

Many conservatives have been less than enthusiastic with the choices the GOP offer for president.

Yet I challenge all conservatives to note the three most important issues confronting our next president.

Mine

1) Completion of the Iraq War effort

2) Appropriate judicial appointments

3) Continues support of the Bush tax cuts and fiscal restraint


While most conservatives want to think that Rudy's pro abortion position makes him likely to support bad judicial candidates, the fact is, he was a former prosecutor. He understands why it's important to appoint judges that believe in separation of powers and don't want to become defacto legislators.

To my understanding, Roberts and Scalia will never shoot down abortion laws per se. What will happen is a deferral of the issue to the state legislatures which is where it belonged in the first place.

Now I do worry about Rudy's penchant for taxes and government spending but I don't think he'll govern as a democrat on these issues.

Curiosity, what do you think are the three most important issues for the next election?

Post a comment or email to gtvcpa@yahoo.com. I'd like to see what the general consensus is.
