The difference is, people were afraid to criticize members of the party, and were focused on unity to keep the Democrats out of power. Well, guess what, the Democrats are in power, and we can either go over and huddle in the corner and suck our thumbs and play along with the Democrats, or we can do something about cleaning up the party and getting it back to its roots.

...Bush was reelected in 2004.

And his majority was?

Even in 2003, staunch conservatives were complaining to the Republican PTB, and warning what would happen. Apparently in their "compassionate arrogance," they didn't listen. Unlike Dummies, the Republican base won't just vote for anyone with an R after his name. They expect their representative to vote like Republicans, not Demo-lites.

Did you forget that he ran against John Kerry? Hell, even Clinton won when he was offered up Bob Dole.

And that's why people like me did not vote for Bush in '04. I figured he'd be a sell-out. I voted straight R this time because I can't stand Granholm and Stabenow and wanted the MI legislature to remain Republican. They actually passed a CCW law, castle doctrine and partial-birth abortion ban (the Canadian Bitch vetoed he last one there).

Please..Kerry was not the answer to these issues in 2004...
