So, although I disagreed with the President, he is doing a bang-up job as Commander in Chief, and I am not going to weaken him by constantly carping about those things I don't agree with.
I am mostly interested in my grandchildren growing up under Western Civilization, you see. Highway bills, farm bills, and all of the rest can be revised at a time when we don't have the country perilously close to choosing democrats (who would get us all killed).
So, grumble away, and pontificate about your conservative principles. My main goal is the survival of this nation, and President Bush is doing everything he can to defend it.
(Except for the border issue, and I do think there might be more going on there than I thought, ever since I heard Chernoff speak about the budget today.)
Unless you want to flip n coins as n goes to infinity.
Sorry. That is a royal cop-out. I'm mostly concerned about the WOT too. It is and it should be the #1 priority for Bush&Company. But the President shouldn't overlook other issues. This isn't WWII, which consumed most of FDR`s time and effort, and which spent 85%-90% of the annual budget on national defense. There are other areas of concern for this President.

That's the way I felt more or less, during Bush`s first four years in office. Last year, the s**t hit the fan. There are too many issues that conservatives believe in and stand for, that are being tossed aside. We can fight a war and still take care of other priorities at the same time. In the world of the 21st century, that is known as multitasking.
>>>>My main goal is the survival of this nation
America is strong and America will survive. Pushing aside issues like immigration reform, spending reform and limited government is wrong. They're are major goals and objectives to keeping this nation a bastion of freedom and liberty.
