I agree MEG. I must admit I'm reading most of this after the fact and am injecting a little armchair QB'ing. But I am sitting over here in the middle of Iraq and didn't get to see the speech last night. I can only read the aftermath. But I swear some of the Bush bashing I see on here makes me think I've logged onto the wrong site. I don't agree with everything that W does either and if anyone should be a stone cold mark for the man it's someone who hails from his hometown. What we as Republican's need to do is adopt the DIM's strategy of voting for their candidate despite his faults because it's better than the alternative. You think every DIM liked Clintoon? No but they voted for him anyway. Party over politics until the election is over.
It appears to me that these people would rather have W go hard right 24/7 and LOSE than shift to the left a little, win re-election pick up more seats in the senate then go back to his conservative base with more power than he started with. And THEN implement the conservative agenda at a place of his time and choosing when he KNOWS he can get it implemented 100%
But then again what the hell do I know? I'm just a soldier in Baghdad helping implement a democratic society in a country that most DIM's and a few people on this very thread last year said we shouldn't go to. So much for what they thought huh?

Thank you for your service to our country, radioguy...I agree with much of what you said.

I don't agree with everything Bush has done either (most especially CFR, the alien jobs, thing, gun control, and open borders)....these issues, in fact, make me quite angry with him.

Nevertheless..........while I disagree with these things, I still admire him and believe he's one of our best presidents. I reserve HOPE that these issues he's implementing/wanting to implement are not put into law, or are later reversed.

The alternative to my object of admiration (with the hope) is electing someone totally objectionable and dangerous (i.e., Kerry, Dean, Hitlery, Edwards, etc.).

I hate for you to read some of this stuff.The one thing that seems to have everyone disturbed is the allowing illegals to get work cards if they have a job.I won't go into the details.It won't happen anytime soon because it's a hot potato for the polititians.I liked the speech.I'll find a better thread with fewer fights...;)

Hi, there! I haven't talked to you in a while.

Thanks for your opinion from your very important perspective. I think it was an excellent speech, and my suspicions were confirmed this morning by the frothing at the mouth of just about every democrat.

We are very blessed to have this man as our president during this very dangerous time.

I just don't think that a democrat president, even if it were one who supports the WOT like Lieberman, could marshall enough support and resolve among those of his party to move forward. The hard left has too much influence in their party.

I am proud to support the president, and I will not apologize for it one bit, no matter who calls me names or tries to infer that I am swayed by superficial characteristics.
