It's a position I find myself in most of the time.

My values are, essentially, conservative. I want a strong society, composed of competent and responsible people who place the needs of their families and their nation above their own self-interest. I want accountability and integrity in our public servants, in our business leaders, and in the pillars of our community. I want people to respect the rule of law, the law itself, and the people who enforce it.

Most of all, I want America to be the best and brightest nation on the face of this Earth.

And, all too frequently, my desire for these things places me firmly on the same side of political issues as people who chain themselves to trees and demand that government health insurance pay for their marijuana.

I'm just not willing to support the wrong policies for the right reasons.
