And many of you want to throw it all away right now because America did not return to the way the Foundng Fathers wanted in less than two decades. Patience, thy name is not conservatism.

Wow, more wait and see. Of course beginning a return to the ideals of the Framers includes signing the largest entitlement bill in this nation's history, expanding more government funding for education, and prosecuting a military action with an ever changing goal ('spreading democracy' contrary to the Wilsonians is not a clear and defined goal) does it?

I just can't wait to see what's next!! Of course conservatives, and rightly so, should find humor in all of this. Some of us spoke up, but no one was listening. We had to win back the White House, we had to win back the Senate, and we had to keep the House. And what have we got out of it? A party that still ridiculously claims a limited government policy, yet another nation on our government's dole for the next generation at least, and yet another amnesty bill. Heck, who needs to wait?? 'Conservatism' is already here!!

I can write out a long litany of the things he did right and how America is heading in the right direction but everyone's mind is made up. Whatever. I don't care anymore. I will defend him to the end and you guys will oppose him. That's that. Like the President said: "I love free speech."

Unlike the President, it can p* the hell out of me, so I guess I'm a lesser man in that sense.

In any case, the PResident is a sincere, God fearing, and courageous leader who believes in doing what is best for the country irregardless of push polls, trendy causes, and mob rule. I pray that our next one is like that. Many of you may come around, or not. I'm sure there are some uber right person cheesed off at Pres. Eisenhower or Pres. Reagan for expanding government and being soft on commies.

My three hopes for the future:

1) The President would not be used as an epithet, much like Pres. Reagan in a stupid "I'm more conservative THAN YOU!" hosing contest.

2)When people speak of the President in reverent terms, it won't be out of regret.

3)We can still speak of the President
