What Price Safety?
By Robert Novak


Good op-ed by Novak.

These four GOP dissenters are far from being members of the party's slender liberal wing. Lifetime records as measured by the American Conservative Union are Sununu, 95 percent; Craig, 94 percent; Hagel, 85 percent; and Murkowski, 74 percent.

My hat's off to these Senators. It's refreshing to see that principles do occasionally come to the fore in the DC cesspool.

Liberals who reflexively oppose anything Bush supports are overjoyed to welcome four apostates, but in fact they represent doctrinal Republican belief in individual rights against governmental power.

That's exactly right...
