"The simple fact is, conservatives are NOT the majority in power right now. Bush was always more moderate than conservative, and the Senate is presently controlled by a moderate Republican and liberal/moderate Democrap coalition."

The House is more conservative than the Senate. But on each issue, the equation has three parts: President, Senate and House.

Things have gone as things have gone. Not everybody is pleased all of the time.

I assure thoughtful people that things will NOT be better with any one of the three sides turned over to the opposition party's control.

Think committee chairmanships. Judicial appointments, national defense, tax legislation are three areas that have gone WELL due to Republican control.

I agree with your outlook on this whole thing. There's something that I don't understand about many of the "real" conservatives as they call themselves.

They say they want to teach a lesson to the Rinos and if the Repubs lose the majority they'll be made to come around more to the conservative side. I understand that part but they go on to say when that happens we'll take the majority back.

I don't understand how they think we'll regain the majority after having given it up and allowing the Dems to strengthen their position. Is it just wishful thinking?
