they are now claiming to not be republicans .. they are "conservatives"

You think that conservative is the same thing as Republican?

Well, if the President doesn't, why should anyone?

I've already stated all of those things clearly, Jeff.

Well I guess in a 2900 post thread, I may have missed it.

In any event, she was not denied any of her rights.

Veterans should establish a political party and offer candidates at all levels.

They're the only group that is large enough and has the appropriate background to be trusted with power.

Right now, there's a monopoly of lawyers in power in both parties, and that is not working well.

Give one reason -- just one -- why politicians would pay the slightest bit of attention to your concerns if they knew it wouldn't affect your support for them.

No ... but I do think she reads the papers

From what I read from the pundits, they were respectful but unconvinced of her qualifications.

This wasn't my reply. In fact I raised an objection.

I think someone can be both

However, If they don't want to be part of the republican party ... then leave

I'm sure their new found buddy and hero, Pat Buchanan would love to have them

We let them in and they trashed the house.

Um... we "Conservatives" handed you "Republicans" the "House" along with the "Senate" and "Presidency."

Just listened to Special Report. It seems that Miers wasn't doing well in her meetings with Republican Senators.

Her withdrawal was more likely due to that than the Borking of her (which DID occur) previously.

If that is the case, I stand corrected on her being denied her right to the hearing.

Really? Who would you trust in Government:
Thomas Jefferson or Wesley Clark?

Wow, sounds like that's right out of Starship Troopers, which didn't necessarily espouse an illegitimate political system, imo.

My house has a leaky roof. I'd rather fix it than abandon it.

The same can be said for my party.

At least that is what I kept hearing

I know Rudder; I was including you, as it was your "BS" reply that caught my attention to the post.

Heh, I guess we're just not "moderate" enough...Miers figured out that she had become radioactive, and it makes me wonder all the more why Bush ever supported her in the first place. Somewhere along the line he must have figured that she was causing problems for him.
