…They Asked for His Kind of Leadership

You hear it in the coffee shops all over the "red areas" of the map. Everyone knows that is where the real politics is discussed in America. Conservatives are asking themselves, "What was the President thinking?" They might be talking about No Child Left Behind, or steel tariffs or the signing of many less than conservative bills.

In the coffee shops in the "blue areas," liberals don't sit around much. They are too angry and busy to stop for a while but many are thinking that President Bush is the most conservative president in years, since "oh, my God, Reagan," and he must be stopped.

Both of these assessments cannot be true and after spending years looking at politics, I took my first serious stand on a candidate in 1968 at the tender age of 9, if both sides are mad at you, you are probably on the right track. So why should conservatives and moderates support the President, now on issues and later this year at the ballot box?

Based on the history of this President, we better not count him out till we see how things unfold. He is what conservatives asked for in a President. He cut taxes, got our economy going again and lives and breathes the safety of this country and the people in it. When it is all said and done, George W. Bush does what he believes is right for the American people and he is willing to stand on his record in November.

Re: Campaign finance reform

Bush warned Congress to be sure that what they passed was what they wanted because he wasn't going to veto it.

But the bandwagon was rolling and the pols were sure that the SCOTUS would find most of it unconstitutional.

The congresscreatures wanted to look good by backing the cause du jour and for Dubya to take the political hit by vetoing it.

Well, they miscalciulated.

"I'm still waiting for a reason."

Dean, Clark, possibly Billary...

Want anymore?!

Funny how some conservatives, and yes, I am conservative, are willing to sacrifice umpteen other conservative issues in order to simply drive home a point!

'If I can't be blue, then I'm taking my game and no one's gonna play..."

Blah, blah, blah...

[wingster]

How does President Clark and Vice President Clinton sound!

[Kevin Curry]

2004 is a lost cause. It's time to start looking at 2008.

[Kevin Curry]

If Bush loses, he will have only himself to blame. He's big boy.

[Hand em their arse]

Sorry but once again I must go back to my previous post....... AGAIN!!!

[JohnGalt]

There is simply no truth in that statement.

Conservatives agreed that the over whelming need to remove the Clintonistas required a vote for Bush, who did, as we have all noted, campaigned for our vote be it a humble foreign policy, a tax cut, small government...

We got the antithesis.

[Kevin Curry]

Well, they miscalciulated . . .

So you assign no responsibility to Bush at all? If that's the way the game is played--if the President is not responsible for the legislation he rubberstamps--why even bother having a president? The position is superfluous. Let's just give him ceremonial duties like Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands has.

So what is the alternative my friends? A Democrat who is going to tax you to death, sell our national security to the UN and Europe. Please think very hard about this

JMO, they don't. They would rather rant.

[Dane]

And how is this Democrat going to accomplish any of this? Not with a Republican Congress, certainly!

Yeah right the Speaker of the House, is Commander in Chief and Secretary of State all rolled up into one.

Get a freakin clue, dude.

[Dane]

Bring back the good ol' days of gridlock. I honestly don't see how this is any better than having a Democrat in the White House

You guys are carcking me up.

Well enjoy having France set our defense policy with a President Clark.

[Eris]

How does President Clark and Vice President Clinton sound!

Like something that will reawaken the slumbering conservative lion.

[Hand em their arse]

Ofcourse, it's the same story for the last 2 1/2 years... Don't bother offering any new ideas or solutions to what they feel the problems are, let's just bitch. Because they know the Frankens' and the Carvilles' and the Kennedys' and the Daschles' will get the majority of the camera time on the major networks talking points.

Let's just get used to it and then watch with a smile when we spank the ever-loving snot out of them in Nov.

[Dane]

R.R. was not perfect ... GWB is not ....... in the same league.

You're right. Bush hasn't signed a tax increase like Reagan did. And Reagan never signed a piece of anti-abortion legislation.

[Dane]

yup keep ripping on them then when in large numbers they turn out to vote for a third party (large enough to make a difference) don't cry about it. I will not be used the same way the Democratic party uses African Americans.

And that third party will be?

[Hand em their arse]

"Um, excuse me, Kofi..... would you or Mr. Chirac or Mr. Schroeder mind all that much if we defend our lives, liberties and pursuits of happiness. No? Aw, shucks.."

[AAABEST]

JMO, they don't. They would rather rant.

No Dane, we don't think about this stuff. You're the great mind around here, you do all the thinking for us.
