The GOP is supporting George W. Bush this year.
You'll have to vote for somebody else, because we're not going to let YOU tell US how who or how to vote.

Find yourself a candidate pure enough for yourself and vote for him. Listen, I am a Republican who grew up with Republican ideals. I don't consider myself "pure" as you insult would indicate. I consider myself an American who is sick to death of voting for people who say one thing and do another. (Unlike some people who care nothing for the path America is taking under Bush.)

Why is the required compromise *always* to the left and *never* to the right? Because there's nobody to compromise with to the right of you guys!

Only those who don't care about America's future refuse to speak out.Nonsense. Those who care about America's future don't dismiss the significant accomplishments of this President as if they were well within reach of just any man and then claim to be betrayed beyond reason.

tell me how his work in 2002 does not look like fighting for conservatives? did RR add seats and go get conservatives to run like Mr. Bush? NO. Did he make an appointment of several people and bring them back after 2002? Yes. Did he install Judge Pickering? yes.
The author of the article makes it clear that the memorery of RR is better than the facts. There are 200+ dead Marines that got not help from Mr. Reagan. We left Lebannon and allowed the Arabs to think we would always cut and run.
I wish the President was vetoing spenidng bills, but he did not and jsut like parents who wish they made different decisions it doesn't mean he won't fix them in the next round.

Yep, I believe the author of the article had you read perfectly. Obviously if you had blind loyalty to Principles you would know that you have to make progress toward the ideal in our governmental process steps at a time..... nothing comes all at once.

Their combined anti-Bush votes are only 18%. They might as well vote for Kerry/Edwards and expect to be ruled by the UN, that bastion of One-Worldism.
To: swampfox98
(Unlike some people who care nothing for the path America is taking under Bush.) Ah, there it is; your last refuge. Can't make a point? Then try to insinuate you care more about the country then I do.
I am stating a simple fact: George Bush is our candidate this year.
What you chose to do about that is your business; but I wish you all would stop trying to make US feel bad about the decisions we've made by making statements just like the one you made above.

Woe and gloom have befallen some on the right.Darned few really. Only to their own self-inflated ego-obcessed minds, are they a force to be reckoned with. More examples of gasping for relevance by those who would also have us think they believe they might really get better treatment and a bigger bang for their buck from Kerry and his RATS.

Putting Kerry in the WH would only force the Republican party to move even further to the left to get re-elected!
Good Heavens, people! GWB is not perfect. But does anyone here honestly believe that it will be easier to advance a conservative agenda with a liberal White House??? Wake up!

Well, a lot of those are probably distruptors who just voted that way to skewer the vote.
The Kerry ones can be thrown out, but the undecideds we will get.

You mean like Ted Kennedy's education bill or John McCains CFR? How about Fienstein's AWB? The Democrats (in general) Medicare bill? Maybe it's the new amnesty the Dims want so much.
All tough sells to be sure.

Unlike us, THEY have "principles". (/sarcasm)
To: Jim Cane
I did point out that your candidate is voting for President Bush.

You forgot "melo-dramatic", their statements of "betrayal" prove the illogical nature of their "feelings".
To: MEG33
A bit late for your wishing for a new candidate.Perhaps you could write in your name... No thanks. I'll write in Tancredo, just the same.

You have no power to prevent me from telling you how to vote. Oh, I can see that now.
Why would I be surprised that you feel like YOU can tell ME how to vote -- after all, you're casting your vote for a man who has said on more than one occasion he doesn't WANT you to vote for him.
Try not to be so condescending of the rest of us while you throw your principled vote to a man who doesn't want it.
