Then what in the heck is wrong with him???? Why does he screw the Base vote every chance he gets?
In WAR politics is a sideshow. Bush realizes this. Let the Congresscritters look to their own.
The bills that the GOP controlled Congress has submitted have been a disaster full of pork and social engineering. Where is the permanent tax cut bill, social security reform and ANWAR drilling?
Does America expect to be saved by Presidential vetoes? Bush has done most of the dirty work on this war and keeping America safe from terrorists.
The base doesn't know what the base doesn't know. The base seems at times to want instant gratification for their varied pet projects.
