| Message | Again...how is subsidizing with taxpayer dollars the nuclear power and mass-transit industries conservative? We have enough left-wing-promoted government programs, regulations and restrictions in the nation. We don't need more! |

| Message | We're conservative in some issues and not conservative in the rest. I believe that all this helps the environment and ultimately our pockets to do this. After awhile fossil fuels will run out and we need to be ready. |
