Not meant as an attack, just an observation. Your very name/handle indicate that you are a Bush sycophant, but anyone who would call himself a "Wfan" (on FR no less) should expect people to assume he is a diehard Bush loyalist and defender. A pox upon me for jumping to such a conclusion from your handle. "Sychophant" is a little harsh since it suggest a servile function, so would it be more accurate to say you are a "diehard Bush loyalist?" It's okay to be a Bush loyalist, it's your choice. I simply don't believe that Bush or the Republicans represent my interests. This is a "Free Republic" isn't it? Or should I just fall in lock-step with Bush when he is wrong on so many issues (see the 13 I listed and that is just a start!)?
"blindly"......accusatory, saying that I do not see the truth. That I am unaware of faults, that I follow without thinking.
"loyal"......that I am, but with good cause. George W. Bush stands strongly for the elements of conservatism that I believe are most important.....a strong military, the moral foundations of our government, the value of the life of the unborn, lower taxes..... The areas where he is NOT conservative, are less important to me than the areas where he IS conservative. I am loyal, but with justification.
"sycophants".......a tired old accusation that was never true of anyone in the first place (can't you guys try to come up with something different in you 'ad hominem' attacks??). If you look it up in the dictionary, you will see that it is a person who benefits from groveling and blindly supporting an important person. It's totally inaccurate.
I make no apologies for my support of the President, but I had the values he expressed in his campaign before I had a clue as to what he stood for.
And frankly, I'm sick of you angry uber rightists who attack incessantly something you know nothing about.
My strong support of him began because of my spiritual awareness well before the election, that God was going to use him to bring America back to Himself, and the confirmation of that in his words, and the words of those I trust, outside the political arena.
I pray for him daily, and still believe that God is using him, and will continue to use him in his second term.
I don't have to agree with him on every policy.......and I disagree STRONGLY with him on some. I just see a bigger picture than individual issues, and I thank God for the picture I see.
