If what is happening is so bad why don't you all end it all. Go ahead and stay home or vote for someone else. Two to five years down the road when New York or Los Angles are nuked by terrorists who were treated as criminals like the Dems belive they are then you will see how petty you are. Do you folks believe that a Kerry government whould do what is needed to protect the USA? A Republican congress can harp all it wants and can do nothing because it is the executive branch that controls the defense of the country. Even the things you complain about show that President Bush is looking towards the future. The border problem needs addressing and deporting illegals is not only impossible in a practical sense, it also would destabilize Mexico and that is a can of worms we don't want to open. Like it or not most of the people in the USA illegaly are here because many of the jobs they do are not wanted by Americans. We have to figure good way to control the influx and meet the needs of the labor market. President Bush has started the discussion like a leader should. Drug benifits for seniors is needed and cost effective. If seniors have access to a affordable drug plan health care costs will be reduced. Modern drugs are important to maintain the health of seniors, reduce the affordability of such drugs and the health of seniors is affected and thus costs for sick seniors increase. Like what President Bush is doing or not at least he forward looking and that is what is needed in todays America. BUSH 2004!!

Bush takes one step forward and two steps backwards.
We need a true conservative who is not afraid of offending interest groups, voting blocks and the opposition party.

Unfortunately, it is going to have to get a lot worse before enough people get fed up with the situation and take the action needed to right the course. Sure, the true, hard-core conservatives are upset enough to react, but the Bushbots aren't there yet. It'll take a few more liberal acts by Bush, perhaps, but eventually they will see the light.

Bush is leading us to the eventual "bottom" where enough people can no longer take it, albeit he's leading us there slower than a Democrat President would.

So are we better off in delaying the inevitable? I'd rather deal with this problem than having my kids try to right the wrongs.
