I have one point I wish for you to consider, if you would be so kind. If a dem spent money they it has been spent in the past few years, if a dem sign the pill bill, if a dem affected our constitutional rights the way finance reform and the patriot act have (I am very skeptical of any attack on my rights for any reason.), if a dem proposed the amnesty, if a dem says that he sign an extention to the assault weapons ban, if a dem grew the size of government the way this President has we would all be howling mad and marching on Washington with torches.
I am not saying that GWB does not have many positives, he does but to me his negative now out weight them. If he, for example, would drop the amnesty and cut spending I would be happy to reevaluate him. I am not naive enough to think I can ever get all I want from a politicain in terms of his views, but now the issues he is for that I oppose are more to me then those I agree with him.

that is a good reason to hold primaries and vote in conservatives not RINO, you work with the tools you have not with what you don't have.

Exactly right. If Bill Clinton had done the things you named and many others you didn't, the people here praising Bush would have been absolutely HOWLING with indignation. In my world we call that hypocrisy.

This post does not single out any one poster, but is meant for. I have been a lurker for a few years, and watched the positive and negative support for our President. Too often, I've seen posters react to something the media has put, and then having to retract their angry rhetoric when the truth came out. You say he's screwing the conservatives, but what would you have him do, knowing that if he appeals to just his conservative base, he loses. Folks, the Democrats want much more, and if they gain control, what then, back to whining like was done when Clinton was in office? Some say they could live with a Dem president and the House and Senate controlled by the Reps. This would be madness, WE HAVE CONTROL OF THE HOUSE, SENATE, AND THE PRESIDENCY, and we still can't get what we want. Thank God we have gotten some of the things, lower taxes, a secure country protected by a military re-energized by this President. You cry about the amnesty bill, give him some credit for at least proposing a solution, not the blanket amnesty with no controls that the Dems want. You talk about gun control,who wants that the most, seems like it's a Dem name on the proposed bill. We can all sit back and bitch and second guess, and my second guess is to go after our voice in the House and Senate, thats the power brokers, get rid of the Specters, Jeffords, Schummers, et all, and give the President something to work with.Get judges that will follow the Constitution. In the meantime, remember we have a President that doesn't attack the other side, but reacts to what he feels the people need. He may be wrong, but by God, he did something. Semper Fi

If he, for example, would drop the amnesty...Perhaps you haven't been keeping up. He is NOT proposing an amnesty. Please don't spread misinformation about his proposals. It's too easy to confuse the dimwits.
Regarding his "spending": It's DOMESTIC spending which goes right back into our own economy and keeps people employed and keeps the money circulating. That's a good thing.
