I can't blame you for supporting Bush - I do as well. It's that 'excessive partisanship' that gives me a problem. The purpose of this site is the 'restoration' of Constitutional government; presumably, the Republican Party is merely a means to that end.

I know, it's hard to remember that your objective was to drain the swamp when you're up to your *ss in alligators, but nevertheless, one ought not to set the means above the objective, as it were.

Well stated. You're exactly right.

I don't know what you mean by "excessive partisanship" in this situation; there are two candidates, period.

Can you describe what level of partisanship would be acceptable to you? I mean, should those of us who support Bush "think" about voting for Kerry?

You would agree that the main adversaries in the political arena are the demos. They are partisan also, even more so.

It's all fine and dandy that you wish to triangulate yourself and set a new tone, but there is the real world out there and in the US, two parties have a chance of winning, the demos or Pubbies. I'm on the side of the Pubbies.

That's reality and no one said that reality would be a bed of roses.
