As the article clearly states....
The more things change, the more they remain the same.
But don't be disappointed in the President. If you can see far enough down the road, you will see that he is advancing the cause of conservatism in many, many ways.
We need to support him, even if we disagree about some of his policies (which I do), because the left is literally trying to destroy him.
Bush = Rinoisimus Maximus..
*His administration cut off funding to the United Nations Fund for Population Activities because the global agency violated U.S. law by participating in China's mandatory abortion program.
*His administration adopted regulations prohibiting federally funded "family planning clinics" from promoting abortion as birth control.
*The Reagan White House blocked use of federal money for research using the tissue of aborted babies.
Bush has done all of this too, and more.
No response, I see, to any of the other objections.
Look, I loved Ronald Reagan. But he was simply not as conservative in action as Bush has been. Not even close.
Not at all. We have had many a troll, disruptor, and sleeper troll here from the beginning. And since YOU posted exactly like a serial caller/troll, until you prove otherwise, you are suspect.
Pity. It must be rough to live that way.....
Thank You!Some people have selective memories! It is what it is. Face the truth. Time seems to make some memories go in different directions of what actually happened.
President Bush is most decidedly NOT a RINO. It is you who are not a Republican.
I still support him . I just wish he'd get off his ass and really slam back at some of the absurd lies that are constantly being thrown at him (and US in general) The whole Jatrina thing. He should have SLAMMED the mayor of NO and the Gov of LA and told the real story.He's lets too much go and some people figure he's not disputing the lies, so , they must be true. Immigration bothers me and playing nice with that scumbag Klinton is a mistake in my book.
Ann is the leanest meanest RINO exposer of all time..
So she got ya huh.. (making a note..)
"Reagan didn't hold a candle to Bush in what he actually did."
As I said earlier, you're long on opinions, something that seems to be your strong suite.
I had a 14% mortgage when Jimmy Carter was Prez. We had stagflation (maybe you're not old enough to remember that). We had our citizens held hostage by the Mullahs in Iran. Reagan came in and the Mullahs knew he meant business and they released the hostages. BTW, the leader of Iran today led the hostage-taking, and this administration treats him like one of the family.
Reagan also saw to it that the freedom fighters in Nicaragua were't left defenseless despite bans by a congress held hostage by the DUmmycrats on giving them aid--yes, he stepped across the "legal" line to do it, but he did what he had to do to bring Democracy to Central America. And as I said before, he gave the nation hope and he brought down the sky-high interest rates and put people back to work in record numbers. He rebuilt our military which had become desperate under Carter. He brought down the Soviet Union and he gave birth to the notion that abortion is wrong. He was not perfect, but his achievements are absolutely monumental.
You say "Reagan didn't hold a candle to Bush in what he actually did." I don't see that. Nevertheless, you are entirely free to your opinion of Reagan, but it is the opinion of one guy pecking away at his keyboard just as I am.
That's why the article makes absolutely NO sense.
I've never seen Coulter so weak and illogical.
Give me a break buddy .
^5 ! :-)
He has risen above the fray, and will be completely exhonerated in the end.
If he had fought back at the petty level that his opponents did, he would only look small like they do.
(Although it would have been kind of fun to hear him say that he was going to punch Mary Landrieu in the face. ;)
"and very defensive as well"
I'm not defensive, I'm offensive. I'm quite happy to point out why I'm unhappy with the guy I voted for twice. In my case, it's more like the "Joe, say it ain't so" disappointment I have with him.
Ohio forgot to take her med's tonight ir maybe every night, she has called me a troll, newbie, DU everything you can think of...I just find her hilarious and likes to argue with anyone who dare to critique Pres. Bush and the way our guy has had numerous chances and still does at golden opportunities to make the most of a perfect situation...but DOES NOT...it is disheartening at times.
GMTA. ;)
