Keeping Bush in office under his current leftist leanings will result in a slow and painful death.

You may fear a Dem or another other than Bush, but a Dem would take us to a quick death, where we can then unite and deal with it and correct it. Would you rather the inevitable be put off only to be dealt with by your children? I'd rather we start on the road to taking back our country in my generation.

Remember Hillarycare? It was so left and so drastic that it united the masses. That would be the case with every program a Kerry or Dean proposes, and would be easy for even the most "compassionate conservative" to unite with the true conservatives and defeat this evil once and for all. Under his current leanings, Bush is taking us down the road to liberal destruction, albeit slower and in a stealth manner. So do we die a slow painful death, or do we recognize our enemy, allow them to step forward and then defeat them.

If GWB is not willing to act like a true conservative and govern to the right, I can take 4 years of hell if it means we unite and finally correct the course.

That would be a much more attractive prospect if our party hadn't tried that sort of correction before.

Instead of uniting and taking care of business after four years, we re-elected Bill Clinton. And did we get a real conservative after his term? We got Mr. Bush. You don't
seem to think he can claim that title.

No, what happened was a disaster. So, while I can see why you'd want to try it, and I might even like to believe it would work - I think you'll find that the real consequences
of your actions won't be pretty. If they aren't, will you stand up and admit it? Will you hold yourself accountable?

What you will get is 8 years of hell and 30 years of a leftwing Supreme Court.

By then you won't have to worry about who is more or less conservative because you won't have any choices left.

It just doesn't make sense to pick the worst option in the hopes it will teach someone a lesson.

How would we deal with it and correct it? It is a hell of a lot more work to undo the effects of chaos and destruction than to prevent them in the first place.

To overcome the devil is one thing. To invite him to "come get some" in order to overcome him is another thing entirely.

D@##17, we haven't lost our country yet! It is within our power to fix things as they are if only we will try, there is no need for some sort of cockamamie "Ominous Big Changes" to take place.

You are here, so it is likely that you are good people. You have seen the kind of horror that these people can inflict. Would you want even the smallest fraction of what has befallen North Korea or China to come here?

That is what we are inviting. A Democrat victory will meen the drawing down of our defenses. We will get hurt, and hurt bad. Then who knows what will happen. Unlike goofy commentators, most of us here know that if we take a few hundered thousand casualties, America will cry for blood. It will get ugly. And once that fire is lit, who knows what will happen.

There is nothing that can justify that future if it can be avoided.
