You have an absolute right to your beliefs. However, expect the resultant disappointments.

Beliefs do not disappoint--people do, and I feel Bush to have been a disappointment. Not for the babies who have been born, rather than aborted at 9 months.

I mean long term, big picture and I think that was understood.

You do not believe in incrementalism, apparently.

I believe in doing as much as you can and if that is some small delta, then so be it. I do not feel Bush has even approached doing as much as he could. For example, his proposed budget allocates money to groups like Planned Parenthood. Couldn't he at the very least have proposed a budget without money for these groups? Not even once in five years?

You will learn, if you haven't already, that all-or-nothing politicians do not get elected to national office.

I understand that full well. Does that excuse George W. Bush's actions? Being a Republican does not excuse a politician from scrutiny, at least not from me (and, for the record, I voted for Bush in the last election; I was too young to vote in the one before that). So far, Bush has done little more than delay the march of the liberals, he has done nothing to stop it or reverse direction.
