And here's one from Wolfstar --
"I don't know about "real" conservatives like [those on this thread], but I can never look at a photo like this and forget the overriding issue of our times. I can never forget this child's pain at the loss of her father on 9/11/01 or mine and I can never forget how President George Walker Bush held us all together. He shouldered his own pain, and that child's, and all of ours and he didn't let any of us falter. Now I don't know what issues will motivate your vote come November (and frankly I don't care), but I ask God every single day to keep me on the planet so I can cast my vote for my Dubya so there will not be other children who have to experience what this child did that deceptively pretty September morning."

I like what you write about measuring a man by his enemies. I have found it to be the most accurate measure to apply especially in a politician. If he/she is hated equally by both far fringes of the political spectrum that means he/she is both doing things and i doing things in a thoughtful manner. Bush and Reagan are the only presidents I have seen that share that dynamic. Bush barely won his first term as governor over a popular incumbent and then won re-election with 70% of the vote. While he will not win his 2nd presidential term by that margin he is in the political "sweet spot" for his 2nd term. The democrats have gone so far to the left that Bush OWNS both the center right and the Center left. He is polling 2 to one with independents. The "base' of the GOP and Bush especially has no relation to the base of 92 that defected to Perot. The first real test for that new base was in California where a Moderate Republican won a landslide over both a red meat conservative and a flaming liberal.

You ought to re-post your beautiful comment(s) also. This thread could use a reality check.

What a fantastic post! Thanks for reprinting it to this thread. :-)

Just an academic exercise, thats all.An academic exercise, and a meaningless one.
I'm philosophically, socially, economically, politically, and religiously conservative. I would prefer to vote for conservatives. But I find that many conservatives are heartless, tedious dipwads. Unfortunately, we don't vote for ideologies; we vote for people. And there are some people on the right whom I'd never vote for, because of their sour dispositions, their contrary and dour view of the world, their stridency, and because of their uninspiring and pessimistic view of the world.
I suppose I'll always vote for the candidate who leans toward conservative principles, but I'm not so naive as to assume that I will find perfection this side of heaven.

It would have been easy for this nation to roll over after 9/11 into a fetal position and question ourselves in a stupor of self-doubt and guilt.Oh, for Pete's sake...most of us were initially horrified; and then then ran downstairs to check the ammunition...only after making sure the flag was flying outside the house. I too, thought President Bush was a fine leader after 9/11, but have been severely disappointed with several of his decisions since. I guess I am "beneath contempt" in your book.

To: Mo1
I meant "unchecked" as in "out of control."
I can't see much difference between Bush's illegal immigration plan and the same old posturing we get from Democrats. The leaders of both parties are pandering. You don't have to be a "Bush basher" to be worried about Bush's woeful lack of principled leadership on what -- IMHO -- is the most important long-term security issue we face.
