I just realized...I mean that.
It's going to come down to this.
I have often argued, as many here have, that when FReepers said they would sit home rather than vote for (McCain, usually, sometimes Guiliani), that such sitting out would put Hilary in the Whitehouse.
But I'm not moving on this.
Get some sleep. It will do wonders for those wrinkles.
I will never vote for Hillary. But I won't vote for the GOP again if they don't get CONSTITUTIONALIST judges through, PARTICULARLY to the SCOTUS. So I make a pledge with the same effect: no Constitutionalist appointees, no more GOP votes.
We will have the Constitution restored, either through the courts or through the Congress, and I'll be damned if I'm going to vote for a party that promises to deliver both ways and refuses to actually do either.
Well, since you refuse to answer the question, there is no need to continue this.
Time to put a Marine on the Supremes.
No, you don't see things "pretty well", nor otherwise. Your posts could just as easily be written by a LIBERAL, for all of the FEELINGS !
Reality, being what it is, must be faced. Instead, you retreat into daydreaming, wishing, and pining away for something which has never existed and never shall exist. Nobody is asking you to close your eyes and hope that everything'll turn out for the best; except you. And yes, that's exactly what you are doing.
Have you ever worked on a political campaign? Do you even know, for real how one works? Have you ever personally known ( and I mean for real, not just having seen someone on a stage, shook someone's hand, been in the same room with, for a speech ) a national political figure? WELL, HAVE YOU? And if you have, did you tell him/her your views?
Look, kid, you have that wide-eyed, real life is what's in books or in the movies or on T.V. way of posting. It's why, from time immemorial, young men were the ones sent into battle...it's the idealism.
Thanks! :-)
I have no idea what everyones true position is.
You imagine, you dream, you assume, and you cavil about things you make up out of whole clothe. I'm not swallowing that Chimera.
Have your ears cleaned out and your eyes checked. There was nothing hidden from you, by President Bush, in either of his runs. At 27, you are a case of arrested development. At your age, you really should know and understand far more than you do.
Hillory is VERY dangerous.............at all cost she must not ever get near the White House again...
I see his frustration though..The Republicans are not acting like they are the winners at all, and Bush is playing things a little too safe for my taste..
It's a pity that your brain is so smooth and almost completely wrinkle free. No amount of sleep, or much else, will help you; but why don't you get some rest? Ten or twelve continuous years of same, just might work wonders for you.
Excellent reply and I agree.
Yeah and you have delusions of adequacy. Thanks for the ad hominem attacks btw and I'm the immature one. Whatever floats your boat. Most of the people I know would call me a cynic, but cynicism and idealism tend to be flip-sides of the same coin. As you said it's late and I expect that we will never convince each other.
"True conservatives" don't vote for true liberals (e.g., Hillary Clinton).
Period. End of sentence. Full stop.
The country is certainly polarized and promises to become even more so. Should Bush appoint at least two conservative textualists similar to Scalia and Thomas, the left will likely riot in the streets.
Nevertheless, Bush cannot allow himself to be intimidated and I don't believe he will back down from doing the right thing. Here's hoping his first two nominees are Brown and Luttig.
Do you disagree??
I have no idea what everyones true position is.
I was referring to the party in general, and those that make the wheels go round. Look, you clearly do not want to anwser the question, and have done just about everything possible to avoid it.
That's fine. No problem.
