You are playing word games. You know full well what I am talking about and care to ignore that which is not comfortable for you. Clinton was the snake of all snakes. But the fact of the matter is that the GOP at least had some fight in them over the massive increase in the size scope and role of the government. Because it is the GOP, some turn a blind eye, like the kool aide drinkers we laugh at. W has done some great things, but they are comprimised by his immigration plan, medicare plan, etc. If he forcefully came out for border control and deportation of criminal illegals after 09/11/01, the country would have been behind him, if he forcefully advocated for fiscal common sense, the country would be behind him. But, his failures on these issues will hurt his chances at re-election.

"You are playing word games."

I'm applying logic and reasoning. It is not because Bush is GOP that I support him. I support him because he is the first president since Reagan to truly realize that we are at war with terrorism and terrorist states. I support him because I believe he is a man of deep faith, conviction, and honesty.

Do I agree with everything Bush proposes? No. But Bush's task is to try to be a president for all Americans, not just for the extreme right wing.
