George, not the nominee has the upper east coast taint. Some members of FR are full of surprises. No matter what "W"'s track record is he is always given a good deal of slack at moments like this nomination. He never fails to disappoint because he isn't a conservative. At best he is a moderate, big government Republican. If he hits some heavy seas in this nomination he will throw him over. He doesn't have the grit to fight. Have you heard anything out of him lately about social security reform. Of course not. He hit some rough waters and just forgot about it. "W" reminds me of his father in a debate, looking at his watch instead of getting on with the task at hand. No sarcasm meant. Just someone looking for a conservative president while realizing "W" is the Republican's Jimmy Carter.

Yeah, President Bush's accent very much reflects his upper east coast taint. /S

I agree some members of FR are full of surprises, you being one of them, in not being happy with this nomination.

As far as your comment about the President looking at his watch instead of getting on with the task at hand....Puhleeeze. There's a little something going on right now called a war, and our president is handling it aggressively.

And he's the Republican's Jimmy Carter? Evidently you weren't alive in the 1970's. Inform yourself and you'd post a little more intelligently.

Apparently you don't have any idea of what your are speaking of. In the 70s I was buying a house with the blessing of Carter's sky hight interest rates.
If you are so damn dumb that you think a man's accents reflects his political leanings you are in for a rude awakening. "W" family is of the spend the summer on Martha's Vineyard variety of Republican, where his family maintains a home and a sailing facility. His embracing of a larger and larger government is the Rockefeller branch of the Republican party that likes to summer on Martha's Vineyard.
Your take on George's handling of the war in Iraq is something I don't agree with. I don't feel it is being fought aggressively enough. Aside from the war, "W", as our president is expected to excel at all facets of the job. Not just war making. He hasn't been strong on the economy or returning conservative values to our education system. He has been weak on leading the party. Can you imagine a minority party holding up a nominee for any position that Ronald Reagan had chosen?
"W" is a weakling, a spineless jellyfish. A communist chinese general talks about sending nuclear tipped missles toward the United States and "W" is silent on the matter because the communist chinese are in bed with American business making them in bed with "W".
He is indeed a Republican Jimmy Carter. You can kid your self all you want be we elected a pig in a polk and all we got was the oink and no ham.
