The problem of the NEA pales in comparison to all else that is going on. The Democrats are maybe one Suprememe Court Justice away from ushering in complete 100% socialism and world government. Give them two and it's all over for America as we know it.

And just imagine the damage that they could with Slick Willie as Chief Justice!

Hey, I agree with you guys for the most part. I just don't think we are doing the President any favors if we deny the reality that there is a problem. History tells us that strong conservative leadership wins elections. Nixon ran as a conservative and won. Ford as a wishy-washy moderate and lost. Reagan as a conservative and won. Bush Sr. as a Conseravative and the heir to the Reagan legacy in 88 and he won. He ran as a wishy-washy guy in 92 and lost. Dole as a wishy-washy guy in 96 and lost. W ran as a conservative in 2000 and won.

Right now the white house (for reasons unknown, perhaps they are missing the big picture in the focus group numbers) are behaving like Bush in 92 and Dole and 96. They are trying to pander to every group taht has no chance in hell of voting for them, and in doing so they are risking those who put W in the white house in the first place.
