I won't vote for Bush in 2004; I'll just leave that part of the ballot blank. I will punch the rest of my ballot. I will work hard to get conservative legislators elected and re-elected this time round (I have made donations and have offered to assist in House seat camapign). I believe it is a higher prority at this point to get six to eight more Republican senators elected than to worry about whether Bush will make it.
While the rest of you continue to enable Bush in his Clinton impersonation, others of us will work hard to get a goood conservative Republican candidate ready for a presidential run in 2008.
I agree we need more senators on our side (especially to confirm judicial nominees). That's where our focus should be. More reps, too.
If you think President Bush has been doing a Clinton impersonation, I must have missed the part where GWB sold military secrets to China, raised taxes, weakened our military, kissed the UN's fanny, appointed his wife co-president, ignored Bin Laden, vetoed the Partial Birth Abortion Ban, and constantly held his finger in the air to see which way the wind was blowing.
I don't think President Bush is perfect. Nor, I do not see him as the lesser of two evils. He is tackling problems that have been left behind because they are controversial and difficult. He's not hiding out in the Oval Office with his ego.
Your vote is yours to cast as you choose. I wish you well in helping increase the number of conservative members of Congress.
Bravo, Kevin. Well done. Get you off the drug issue and you aren't half bad.
