A Transformative President (Michael Barone On President Bush as a GOP FDR Alert) MUST READING!!!

Michael Barone writes that President Bush's place in history will be defined by the events of the past four years and his ability to transform Social Security. Democrats oppose him at their peril and perhaps nowhere is this put better than in Barone's penultimate sentence: "But this president's ability to transform America and the world should not be misunderestimated." Indeed. This is a President who gets constantly underestimated.

Take the New Deal, add the Great Society... Now add a dash of Bush and you get the New Society.

The security of retirement, plus lower taxes, a faster growing economy, and a country one can be proud to live in.

Take the New Deal, add the Great Society, and add a dash of Kerry - and you get zombies.

Here's to the New Society people... Ownership is in, and group misery is out.

A program John F. Kennedy backed 40 years ago. Where oh where are pro-growth Democrats today?

Clinton's 49 percent in retrospect looks like a ceiling for his party. Bush's 51 percent may be more in the nature of a floor.

Cool.

Look into how to grow are taxes ! Unless your Teddy then you would be working on growing your belly .

The president will be able to cream the democrat senators up for reelection in 2006 by forcing them to give on social security.

I think this is a big time winning issue for the president.

These poor dumb bastard Demonrats claim they are being purely American with their dissention.....

I would like to point out that intelligent disent is one thing, but....

they are mired in the automatic gainsaying of any GOP proposal.

As we say in Brooklyn... "that ain't disent"

it is obstructionist.

misunderestimated.

LOL

It's not even being put in quotes anymore!

misunderestimated is now an official word... :O)

(that's some kind of strategery on Bush's part.)

One should not drink, and then post...

Either that, or a spelling and grammar refresher might be in order.

By the by.

Has anyone yet seen in print the reminder that the "esteemed and learned" senators and congressmen - indeed, all federal workers, GET the private security option.

But their elitist attitude has many times been spoken - that we, the little people aren't capable of understanding the complexities and handling it right.

when people hear that they have it for themselves but don't want us to have it - a light goes on.

I don't want a GOP FDR. I want a GOP Calvin Coolidge.

Didn't need no welfare state...

everybody pulled his weight...

Isn't it great?!!!!

When I saw what W did to Ma Richards, I knew that he was going to be a great one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We sure have been able to watch some real showdowns in the past few years and our guy wins it everytime!

Gotta love Dubya!

Watching Dr.Rice with Mr. Abbas.

Have a nice day .

At last, someone who remembers! I've been saying that for years only to be give that dumb "Huh?" look by libs, they STILL don't get it. Of course, that's when I would have to go to Austin for one thing or another, I don't know why I wasted my breath there.

"When I saw what W did to Ma Richards, I knew that he was going to be a great one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


You're generous, calling her Ma like that. I use other choice words to describe that...well, I can't use them here, anyway.

Those were the days...

BINGO!!! We need to spread this word far and wide.

Great article by Mr. Barone; thanks for posting it! I'm still not happy about his election night dithering for FOX News, but it seems he has regained his senses here.
