Counterfeit Conservatives? Specter, Graham, to name afew

Take a look at downtown LA right now if you want to see the wave of the future.
WHEN IS THE PRESIDENT AND OTHER POLITICIANS GOING TO REALLY DO SOMETHING TO PROTECT AMERICANS AS THEY SWORE TO INSTEAD OF OUTSOURCING EVERY DAMM THING TO FOREIGNERS???
Mr. tank, you need to add ...000 to that number.
$9,000,000,000,000, soon to be $10,000,000,000,000.
Thank you, math degree.

Thanks for the article. I'm looking forward to reading the book. It seems to pretty much mirror my own views on the Bush presidency.
Reagan never had a "9/11".
The national debt under Reagan nearly trippled. Under Reagan federal spending doubled.
The national debt when Bush took office was 5.7 trillion. Under bush the national debt has not even doubled... let alone nearly trippled as it did under Reagan.
The Reagan apologists used to say that Reagan was going to spend all the money so there would be nothing left for the Democrats to spend when they got in power.
Reagan blamed the spending on Democrats ... but he did not veto their spending bills. He just signed them... late at night.....under cover of darkness.
Conservative as a three peso bill.
"The administration and its supporters routinely denounce critics as partisans and even traitors. Indeed, the White House defenestrates anyone who acknowledges that reality sometimes conflicts with official fantasies."

All you need to read to know this guy is a lying SOS.
When we ALL quit voting for them. End of story.
Presidents and Congress don't get to tell corporations how to run their businesses when it comes to outsourcing. And, when I hear Americans scream about jobs going to immigrants (like most of them can trace their family tree back to the people who lived here originally) I will reply that companies cannot find enough talented people to do high knowledge jobs.
Funny, but those Chinese and Indian people that people like to gripe about are cleaning our clocks when it comes to engineering talent. But, when gummint gets involved with education people yell.
Yeah, Reagan just had those pesky Russians.
If he'd have had a 9/11, he might have been passing huge Medicaid intitlements as well. (/sarc)
THere were six conservatives vying for the GOP nomination in 2000. George W. Bush was not one of them. He's what we got when the small pollers faded out, the big money came in and everyone got scared of McCain. Too many conservatives in the mix, most of them longshots with no real chance who only wanted to get their message out, but would up diluting the message of others who might've had a shot.
And what was the difference in real numbers?
Even the editors of The National Review know that if a politician espoused every one of their views, he'd get about 18% of the vote in a McGovern style blowout.
How many of the six decided that President was a great entry-level position? I see Keyes and Buchanan, who are the other 4?
Dan Quayle had the message and the credentials, but couldn't get any word out (and the only one that anyone would print was "potatoe"). Dan probably would've benefited more from anti-Clintonism had Bush not been in the race. Quayle would've gotten the "good ol' days" vote, at least to start.
So, the bullpen had nobody but Quayle with executive experience. That ways a lot about the state of the conservative movement. We have a way to go.
