My only waste of time was talking to someone who chooses to ignore facts. Sure, there is more to be done, but you can't say we haven't made significant progress based on the facts cited. You have apparently convinced yourself otherwise and have closed your mind, but not your mouth...you remind me of some Dems I know.
"Our earlier case that the election made little difference was based on five assumptions. Non-defense discretionary government spending has increased under President Bush by more than twice the average of the last two Democratic presidents, and a huge new entitlement was initiated while his recent predecessors created none at all. Conservatives simply could make no case for him in regard to unnecessary government spending. Second, even on social policy, where the president has been much sounder, everyone agrees that the appointment of the next Supreme Court justice is the most critical policy choice. Yet, here, Mr. Bush has made it known that he wants to appoint the first Hispanic to the court, his White House counsel, Alberto Gonzales -- who is not a conservative.
No kidding he ain't a conservative, he is from La Raza.
