Count me as one of them!
but isn't that a bit politically self-serving since the end result could be a Kerry presidency...
Isn't it politically suicidal to reward a party that ignores you? What incentive will Republicans have to return to conservative ways?
knowing full well the danger such a presidency would place our country in.
What could be more dangerous than the current situation, where BOTH parties are destroying our country with unchecked immigration, big government and tyrannical laws like the PATRIOT Act?
People died to give us our right to vote,
Which is why I won't waste mine on a Republicrat like Bush!
Can our country survive two more Ruth Vader Ginsberg type justices...let alone the one who currently serves a life term?
That's what a Republican majority in the Senate is for.
Don't forget presidents use executive orders (remember Clinton) to get what they want!
As to spending...when you fight a war you spend money, sorry,that's the way it is!
I respect your opinion, albeit sadly. My own thoughts on the Republican Party leaning off the Conservative track is not betrayal but an effort to become entrenched as the Majority. This requires concessions to attract some of their voter base away from them. This has worked to some degree to the point where they have no real issues to stand on. With a greater majority in the House and Senate AND a President who won't loom as a veto threat...the Republican Party could achieve some REAL fiscal reform and address urgent issues.
This wont work if Republicans cut the legs off their party. The Immigration issue is no small fix. The numbers are quite large of suspected illegals already in our borders. To remove this huge group would be quite expensive both financially and from admin/enforcement costs. The economy probably couldnt survive the sudden loss of their productivity. Just saying our own unemployed would fill those jobs is dishonest at best which is why you have to be realistic not just venting anger. The real solution will be both complex and costly so knee jerk reactions to thinking the President is ignorant of our border problems is absurd.
The Majority in the Senate that you boldly profess will keep Kerry and his ilk from getting more Ruth Vader types onto the Supreme Court Bench is tenuous at best. The Democrats are fully infiltrated by Liberals and in case you didnt notice...they have a "win at all costs strategy" to get their power back.
The threat is very real not illusory and if you really want to turn your back on an opportunity to restore the Country we all once knew then may you have peace of mind when the results roll in on Nov. 2nd.
