Leave. Go join Michael and the other supporters of the culture of death who seek to destroy the GOP by attacking the one party, the one President and the one Governor that actually took action on Terri's behalf. There is no room for ungrateful backstabbers in the republican or conservative movement.

??Governor that actually took action on Terri's behalf

Up to a point, then he did the Pontius Pilate routine and washed his hands. He refused the request of the parent's to use his ordinary powers as governor to take her into custody.

Wow! You must be a recruiter for the RNC. It is Republicans like yourself that have caused so many TRUE conservatives to leave the GOP, with MANY more soon to follow. The GOP's constant shift to the "middle" (read LEFT) has alienated true conservatives. All that remains are a)the "moderate" (read LIBERAL) Republicans, b)the recently converted Democrats, and c)the mindless "Party Slave" sheep who will support anyone with an "R" next to their name, regardless of ideology. Judging by your remarks, I'm guessing you fall under "c".

The last sentence of your post is the one that I find funniest. The idea that anyone who leaves a party is a backstabber is a joke in itself. I don't hear you calling Zell Miller a backstabber. What about George Washington and Thomas Jefferson? Were they backstabbers for rebelling against the British Crown.

But the funniest part of the last sentence of your post is your equation of the Republican party with the conservative movement. While this may have applied 20 years ago, to believe so now only proves your ignorance. To consider GWB a conservative, you'd have to be pretty far left. Bush has actually been FAR more fiscally liberal than Clinton was. I find it amusing when Republican Party Slaves bash Clinton for being liberal and praise Bush for being a strong conservative.

The fact of the matter is that you won't find very many true conservatives among Republican Party leadership these days. They have all traded in their "strong conservative values" for moderate rhetoric that they think will attract more undecideds and conservative Democrats. True conservatives are "leaving the Party" (the Party actually LEFT us) and joining the Constitution Party. I made the switch 3 years ago, and am amazed at how much better it feels to vote for someone I agree with on EVERY issue instead of just a few. If you are a true conservative, check out the Constitution Party platform and you'll understand what I mean.

Besides posturing and grandstanding and then ducking for cover, Dubya, Jeb and the Congress did WHAT for Terri? Did they stand up to this "judge" and his ILLEGAL order that not only pulled the feeding tube (the LEGAL part) but forbade ANY FORM of oral sustenance (the ILLEGAL part)? Nope. They did their posturing then ran for cover when the judge defied them. That subpeona was one example. After it was issued, they could have requested Dubya to send a Marshal to serve it and take her into protective custody. Did they do that? One can debate the Constitutionality of their deeds, but all it was was SHOW, with no substance. Which is what the Pubbie Party is all about. Substanceless show. You are a waste of time and worse, for the pubbies actually PREVENT anything from being accomplished in the desire of MOST conservatives to actually reduce government and protect the weakest among us from scumsuckers like Felos and Schiavo. Your comment is but one example of scores of thousands.
