Why isn't the Administration doing more?

Frankly, they are BAD at politics. Politics is not a 9-to-5 situation. Sorry to say, but Xlinton was on top of this. His invention of the war room was an essential adaptation to direct and deflect media coverages.

GWB's ending of that approach as either a gesture of bipartisanship or a return to an imaginary halcyon days of normalcy...merely signaled weakness to the RATs...and has proven to be a weakness in fact.

GWB doesn't appear to like the political fray. The best ideas for his defense are right here on Free Republic. I am sure some of his people screen us, but what he really needs is to have Karl Rove seeing how we are feeling. We are going to be an accurate barometer of conservative core sentiment. And if we are getting livid at his lack of response...what are the wish-washies? They have already long since caved in and started saying things like Arlen Specter...

Personally, I would not be sorry to see Karl Rove go with dignity (not indicted by the silly Fitzgerald). I think he is good at elections but poor at policy and PR.

They need some new people in there. 2005 was a fiasco that emboldened the left and their media friends.

David Horowitz nails it in "The Art of Political War".

Good thoughts. I am inspired to email the White House with my thoughts. Then give them a word to please visit the FR for the views of more patriots who want President Bush to succeed.
