A vote for President Bush was a vote for tax cuts, conservative Supreme Court Justices, and the war on terror to name three.
And those 3 reasons were good at the time and I campaigned and voted for him.
BUT, I scaped the "W" stickers off my car and tore up my "Security Moms 4 Bush" T-shirt the day he called the Minutement vigilantes. Enough is enough. If I didn't live in Southern Ca and didn't feel like I no longer live in the U.S., what you mentioned might be enough. And when I am lucky enough to move out of this cesspool that the illegals have created, it might be enough again. But, not now.
Illegal immigration is my Number One issue because it transgresses just about every other issue. I wouldn't be needing tax cuts if taxes weren't so high to pay for all the illegals' freebies. Illegal immigration affects our health care, education, economy, crime, culture, taxes, and our national security. The next person I vote for will either agree with me on illegal immigration or I won't be voting. I'm going to be a lot more picky now that GW sold me and my country down the river on this issue. He had a chance to make a huge difference and to continue the outstanding job he was doing for conservatives. But, he decided to make a difference in the wrong direction.
Well for your three: tax cuts without spending cuts are worse than no tax cuts as you will be taxed in the future to pay for the spending, and pay interest. The War on Terror might be a good idea but it hasn't been well fought. We don't know what Gore would have done, or Kerry. But what Bush did hasn't worked. We have not created an Islamic Germany, in fact the Moslem world is not much better than it was. Vis: the aposty guy in Afghanistan. And it's only a matter of time till that happens in Iraq too. Yeah, the SC guys are a net plus. But they can't hold back what is coming...
