Assuming that we maintain control in the Senate if Spector loses. Does anyone have the info as to which seats are up in the senate and the likely outcome?
Honor matters.
A man cannot be afraid to stand up and say what he really means.
The maps indicate a measure of trust.
The penalty, the burden, yet the benefit of standing up, is worthy leadership.
I disagree with the Bush Stealth Politics As Usual Way that is often championed here.
That sets a bad example and makes an easy target for the socialists to prove, in public, that the man cannot be trusted.
People who disagreed with Ronald Reagan, lots of them, still voted for him, as a matter of trust.
Young people in our military, the people who will fight for freedom, they should be honored by the conduct of their leaders who are not afraid of being labeled "meanspirited" by socialists in the U.S. Senate.
Moms and dads have much to lose, and we owe them that, when the officers knock on the door, their sons, their daughters, did not die because their leaders were playing politics, were all over the board, were saying one thing yet meaning another, and all such manuevering that wastes lives.
We are fighting for truth, yet President Bush is advocating Arlen Specter/Spectre, who is a dead ringer for O'Connor as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court --- the reason that she is lingering on the bench.
That lady will disarm the Second Amendment in a flash; but that's OK for the Bush-Bots who are fascinated, nee obsessed, with any and every "stealthy" Karl Rove-ism de jeur.
Rush criticizes Democrats for not having the guts to tell people who such Democrats really are.
Well, want to know the major difference between Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush?
Ronald Reagan left no doubt about where he stood. Indeed, a secret of his success, was that in the years travelling across the country, making speeches, before he was even a candidate for President, he told people what he thought, and he also supported peoples' love of our country, and he championed our worthy American Heritage, all in support of us.
He campaigned in support of us, in support of peoples' hearts and minds, their good convictions, that after years of Democrat Party despotism, it was OK to stand up and be proud of what is good about America.
The people loved it, and they loved him, and they love him.
Because he did not shirk who he was, in order to win votes, nor did he act in any way with shame of convervatives and conservativism.
Something that George Bush has yet to learn.
