So who did Bartlett vote for?
GEORGE BUSH IS NOT A CONSERVATIVE!
The Miers nomination looks dead, mainly because the left desires to defeat Bush at anything, and secondly, the right seems to be obsessed about slapping down Bush over Miers for past wrongs suffered.
IMO the divorce is between the social and religious Conservatives and the "neo-cons"
George W. Bush is not running for re-election. Before they destry the GOP they should keep that in mind.
Spot on observations that most Bush-Bots would dispute with their last dying breath and 8x11 glossy of Dubya tucked close to their heart.
Well alot of it is quite factual. And from the date he turned over the writing of the education reform to ** TEDDY KENNEDY **, I knew we were in trouble relative to conservatism in government. The whole pitch about "a new tone in Washington" was quite true, although we did not really know what it really meant, until 2004.
For many, the hope of finally turning around the judiciary was worth putting up with all the big government stuff. Thus Bushs pick of a patently unqualified crony for a critical position on the Supreme Court was the final straw.
I doubt it unless something is uncovered about her. There are very few conservative Senators when it comes down to it.
No, the neo-cons also are aghast at Miers nomination. Look at Frum and Kristol.
Bartlett has been a Bush supporter. But what he says is right on target. I for one am relieved that conservatives are starting to stand up and fight for their principles. It's about darn time. In the big picture, this is really great! The left pushes Bush around and the right lets him walk all over them. Well no more. As long as we stay focused, this can be a really good development.
For those Conservatives who care about the safety and security of Israel- or even just hate the hypocrisy of fighting terror one place while supporting it against Israel- Bush's policies are today entirely pro- "Palestinian".
I concur.
He is a lot more conservative than John Kerry.
1) So that her presentation at the hearings does not reveal how badly they over-reacted and cause a loss of esteem among reasonable conservatives,
and 2) so it is not shown which Senators their efforts align with on the final vote.
Same goes for the Hastert and Frist led Congress.
Public financing of PBS and the NEA stand as the poster children of out of control wasteful spending. Both are alive and well in a GOP dominated Executive and Legislative branch.
Not based on his spending bills he is not.
I stand beside President George W. Bush for 13 years.. and still standing!
Love ya W ~
Nails it. I agree with everything, except for the "Sarbanes-Oxley bill", but only because I know nothing about it. President Bush has never been a "conservative", and he's been proving it for almost 5 years.
