What you say is probably quite true, in many more instances than anyone here would find comfortable. It is troubling, also, that the persons who consider themselves to be conservative, are taken for granted by the Republican party, much as persons of minority status are taken for granted by the Democrat party.
It is almost as if the Republican party believes that they can somehow have it all. But what is happening, is that the conservatives are making inroads on the persons of minority status, however painfully and slowly, and the currents continue to shift, seemingly unnoticed by either major party.
I like George W. Bush. I really do. But on several things, he is well deserving of criticism, and I do hope that the criticism is received on a constructive basis.
We talk so much about Arabs hating this country but I feel that people that are sitting on their porch with their hand out had the country just as much. The bible says that someone who is lazy is the cousin to a great destroyer. I think I have that one right. I also agree with you about conservatives but I feel that it is also the Christians who are taken for granted in the Republican party and then forgotten. My new big issue is gay marriages. I suppose that the government will let this go just as it did abortion and I will feel as if I have no party. It may be time to start throwing my vote to some ultra conservative 3rd party to send a signal to the Republican party.

It tool a lot of nards in today's one world government to go against the UN and simply open a can of whoopass on a nation that needed a beat'n. I respect him for that. Now I am wondering what he is doing with 87 billion dollars of our money going over there. We are a generous and rich nation but thhis may not be the best thing to do with our generosity.
