Dennis Moore's "conservative credentials"

The Lawrence Journal-World today published yet another article that inaccurately portrayed Rep. Dennis Moore as a conservative.

According to AP reporter Sam Hananel, Republican challenger Chuck "Ahner has challenged Moore’s conservative credentials, calling him 'soft' on national security. Moore recently voted in favor of President Bush’s legislation outlining the treatment of terror-war detainees, but against a bill to grant legal status to President Bush’s warrantless wiretapping program."

As I noted on September 5, ADA ratings show that Moore is just as liberal as the average Democrat in the House of Representatives.
