You must be pragmatic and all him to make his changes slowly and surely. There are too many leftist standing in is way right now.

Sorry, I'm not buying that anymore. I give credit where credit is due, but there were no leftists forcing him to sign CFR, the education boondoggle, $1 trillion more for Medicare, etc. His unclear position on the Defense of Marriage Amendment has me irritated as well.

And it didn't help his agenda to have our country attached on 9/11. Pray for President Bush, don't deride him.

Believe me, I don't like being in the position where I am forced to criticize President Bush, but I have three choices: 1.) declare my beliefs loud, clear, and honestly; 2.) pretend none of the profligate spending and shakiness on social issues bothers me and even defend it (i.e., be a phony); 3.) hold my fire.

I've chosen #3 up to this point. However, the tipping point is rapidly approaching. It apparently already has for Kevin.

Look at it this way: if President Bush doesn't know his base is really hacked off, he may take it as a sign to move even farther left.

And I pray for him everyday, btw.

And I pray for [President Bush] everyday, . . .

As do I. I pray for his deliverance from the corrupt praise and deceptive silence of conservatives who ought to know better.

President Bush's most dangerous foes are those who pat him on the back and assure him he is performing brilliantly. His best friends are the those who cut through the hype and smoke and tell him the truth, especially when it is unflattering and difficult for him to listen to.
