Bush Is Said to Seek More Money for Arts [$15 million to $20 million for NEA]

I am willing to sacrifice 4 or 8 years of a Democrat in the White House if it means a rededication to conservative principles by our elected Republicans down the road

It's back to the future.

Oh well I guess you like the Clinton and demos selling nuclear secrets to the Chicoms.

Thank you for being honest.

[jeremiah]

Clearly there is no mention of support for the arts in the constitution, but that doesn't stop these liberals from robbing me to pay for them. Oooops I forgot, this is compassionate conservatism. When the lesser of two evils, gives us a left wing president who is also a Republican, it must be getting close to the final curtain for our Constitution.

[Lazamataz]

What does Bush have to do for you to object to his horrible policies?

The Cult of Personality is so severely ingrained that if Bush nationalized all industries and declared that, henceforth, America would be a communist country, I believe Bushbots would find something in the decree to love.

"please have the decency to check out the story to make sure its true."

Oh C'mon, it's the NYT's..... The "true Conservative's" choice for breaking news < /sarcasm > off

[OWK]

I am loyal to the president.

[GSWarrior]

I couldn't care less about Karl Rove. I'm just concerned. And a little steamed. I should probably say that I voted for Buchanan in 2000, but I'm a registered republican.

[RiflemanSharpe]

I cannot, will not sit back while this country slides further to the left even if it is under control of the Republicans
Nah you will just watch it slide even further to the left with a Kerry Presidency.

Like it or not, you are helping Kerry and the dems with such an attitude.


Siding to the left with dems or sliding to the left with reps, the only difference is the speed.

[riri]

OMG! I can't even believe this. It is really getting to the point of absurdity with this man.

How about abolishing the NEA? How 'bout that?

Gee, I am sure glad we don't have a liberal in the whitehouse.

[Lazamataz]

Please I would like to hear an explanation of that.

I'd rather not.

For most Freepers, that request would be complied with. That's because in most cases I could be assured of a thoughtful, reasoned response.

For you... no thanks.

[GSWarrior]

Oh well I guess you like the Clinton and demos selling nuclear secrets to the Chicoms.

Thank you for clearing that up.

[jeremiah]

Bush is a liberal, vote for him if you want(I probably will too), but accept it. Just because he is called a conservative, does not make him one. The only things that would shock me, is if he supported abortions on demand or cut the size of government. Look at his record in Texas, he increased spending(with no threat of terrorism imminent) just as he has done while president.

[Area51]

And Conservatives are emotional ninnies who have kneejerk reactions and stupid, meaningless insults like YOU?

I expect adult behavior from adults. Guess that's not CONSERVATIVE enough for you.

This place is going down the sewer.

DOH!

[Little Ray]

Sigh. Pass the CoolAid.

[Kevin Curry]

Like it or not, you are helping Kerry and the dems with such an attitude.

No, Bush is helping Kerry and the Dems by serving up steaming piles of crap like this.

And you are enabling the behavior.

[afropick]

For those who vote for Bush, then dont vote for the congressmen and senators too, and the mayors, the sheriffs, and state legislators.

[GSWarrior]

You are right though, I should have said those reports are rumors.

[Lazamataz]

LOL LOL LOL!!!

OMG!

You owe me a keyboard, and a steaming cup of joe. ;)

I am willing to sacrifice 4 or 8 years of a Democrat in the White House if it means a rededication to conservative principles by our elected Republicans down the road.

Yeah, that's the ticket...

Have 8 years of destroying the military. Have 8 years of gutting the intelligence agencies.

Have 8 years of retreat in the war on terror while the terrorists salivate at our willingness to be slaughtered like sheep...

And,to top it all off... at the end of the 8 years... you still may not get your "rededication" to conservative principles by our elected Republicans.

But... how decent and noble of you to take that gamble on behalf of the country and the party. After all... it will only be for 8 years. What bad can happen in 8 years? Heck what bad can happen on any given morning (like 9/11) in two hours? Not much!

Show me a politician who tries to please everyone, and I'll show you a man who is lacking in moral conviction.

"Nah you will just watch it slide even further to the left with a Kerry Presidency. Like it or not, you are helping Kerry and the dems with such an attitude "

My vote is the only tool, short of a gun (which I will not use), I have left. I will not vote for someone who steals my money to give to drug induced sluts. Again a clear message was send to his father and yes we got the Clintons for 8 years. Someone in the Republican party needs to learn from that clear message that we are not sheep and will not blindly follow someone just because they have an (R) after their name. That is one thing which separates us from the demoncraps, we have values not blind loyalty.
