THANK YOU FOR A MUCH NEEDED 'REALITY CHECK'!!!!!!!!!!

I met today with a group of advisees who also just happened to be vets from GULF WAR I -- to a man (no women present), they agreed that President Bush MUST be re-elected. If he's not, then the deaths of over 500 troops will have been for nothing. WHY? Because a Democrat President will either turn the War on Terror into a meaningless police action and/or subjugate our security/troops to the tyranny and corruption of the UN [The guys became absolutely apoplectic when they thought about the possibility of our troops wearing 'blue helmets'!]

After this enlightening conversation, I bumped into the chair of the Women's Studies Department who invited me to attend a late afternoon meeting with a representative from the National Organization for Women (NOW). The NOW rep was on campus to raise money (and an organization) for the express purpose of defeating President Bush in Ohio -- after all, Bush stands in the way of NOW's pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage/adoption, pro-Marxist, anti-military, anti-nuclear family, anti-Christian, and anti-white male of European descent agenda.

After showing this charming 'chair' my "I Stand With President George W Bush" sticker and watching her walk into the door on her way out of my office [I just LOVE playing with the warped psyches of radical feminists!], I sat down and wrote another check to the Bush-Cheney 04 campaign!

Yep, nothing like a little reality check to focus one's mind (and one's checkbook)!

Absolutely! This will have to be a key reason and component of the re-election campaign.

But we have to be clear what the Republican party success rests on, a 3-legged stool ... Economic freedom/conservatism (low taxes, small Govt); national security ("peace through strength"); cultural pro-family values ("faith, family and freedom").

Bush will need ALL THREE components to hit all cylinders to win. This is why his lack of fiscal restraint and the resulting disaffection from 'small-govt' conservatives is troubling. Some people emphasize some issues more than others.
