[ETERNAL WARMING]

He had made his mind up that he was not going to be the firewall for congressional republicans that pass a bill with the hope of a veto.

But that's his JOB! That's what a LEADER is!


The real question was what would or could be done about Iraq. Bush had his congressional resolution but with the UN and most of the EU openly hostile to removing Hussein would he (Bush) have the sand to do it anyway. That question was answered on March 20th. 2003. Take a look at that date. That was 10 months ago! I don't know about you but it seems like 10 years ago to me. Bush and the "coalition of the willing" stood up to the world and said you can sit and let real threats exist and do nothing but there are still countries and leaders that will fight for your right to be safe and smug and complete assholes

Yes. I supported Bush in this war and still do. I was proud that he stood tall...until he started caving in after the initial war was over. The cost to the US for that caving? Why re-entry into UNESCO, and that for a pitiful statement by Kofi Annan.

He then turned to federal court nominations and started with a list of approximately 50 all of whom were solidly conservative in both temperament and past rulings.

He put them forth and then all but abandoned them! Where were the calls for passage? Where was his presence? NOwhere.

He then withdrew all United States support of the International Criminal Court

Er...he withdrew us from the International Criminal Court...TEMPORARILY.

that he fulfilled his promise on his signature issue, the Education Bill

No he didn't. He called for vouchers. And he not only gave into the NEA, but when they wanted an increase in their budget, he gave them even MORE THAN THEY ASKED FOR. And Johnny STILL can't read.

Look, I'll give him Kyoto, I'll give him the stellar leadership he showed after 911! I'll give him the ergonomic regulations and the tax cuts.

But he has been a monster with his support for every business interest that comes down the pike. He has repeatedly shown his contempt for the American worker and a total disregard for the boulder on the shoulders of the American taxpayer. He cut taxes..not a big deal for most Americans. But then he increased spending to outrageous levels. The result is that our states have slapped us with higher taxes that make our "tax cut" a JOKE. He's done everything in his power to appease Vincente Fox and open the doors of this nation to millions of third world problems. Again, at the American taxpayers expense. We're the ones who have to put up with his cheap labor. We're the ones losing jobs while he shows "compassion" for that poor little man just trying to feed his family. He shows NONE for Americans in the same plight. NONE! He scowls into the camera and says he's concerned about jobs for Americans. Then he pushes for a worker program to take even more of our jobs away.

SHUT THE DOOR IN 2004 Vote Tancredo.

I forgot to comment on the Partial Birth Abortion issue. He signed a bill that limits ONE procedure, ONE. It is very easily gotten around. It was just one of the "Look Good" deals that did virtually nothing.

Then Gephart is your man.

[MissouriForBush]

You nailed it.

Bush's horrible, more-of-the-same, illegal immigration "plan" has my blood boiling. All our brave soldiers' efforts in Iraq are worthless if we will not control and protect the integrity of our own country's borders.

I am fed up with all this so-called "compassion" for lawbreakers at the expense of the honest, hard-working citizens who are forced to fund the wide range of benefits (educational, medical, housing, etc.) for illegal aliens and their anchor babies. And if we complain about the mounting costs, we are oh-so-conveniently branded as racists or right-wing extremists.

We are fast becoming the destabilized, marginalized US of Brazil so-to-speak. And when we beat the drum slowly at the end, we will be using chopsticks, not drumsticks.

[William McKinley]

I've said this before- voting for someone who isn't even going to vote for himself is silly.

[DustyMoment]

You left out the TSA, the Agriculture Bill, The Dept. of Homeland Security and the Steel tariffs. From where I sit, Bush has done more to achieve the Dems' agenda than his own. He even abandoned his promise to privatize a tiny portion of SS.

I give him high marks for the War on Terror but, on balance, that's not saying much when everything else is thrown in.

"SHUT THE DOOR IN 2004 Vote Tancredo."

And ensure one of the 9 dwarves gets elected.

Well, you'll have to live with the guilt, not me.
