If it weren't for the constitutionparty ad in your tagline, I'd think this was a bit of wisdom. Instead, it is almost certainly an example of a stopped clock being right twice a day.

In other words, you approve of holding the right views, so long as you don't actually go and act on them? Do whatever you want, think whatever you want, just so you pull that lever marked R on election day, eh?

I voted for Bush once in 2000, but I never make the same mistake twice. Should the house fold and let any of the provisions of the Senate bill survive to see a signature from Bush, voting for Bush will turn out to be the worst political mistake that America ever made.

Here's a news flash: Politics is war by nonviolent means. The pablum in that paragraph above is no different from the President calling a general on the carpet because he didn't wipe out the entire enemy in the first hour of the war. In addition, voting third party simply takes conservatives out of the game; it's like having your troops march in a direction 90 degrees off from where the enemy is and then patting yourself on the back because you came through the combat with such a low casualty rate. Principle without tactics is like having your soldiers know the Constitution they defend better than Justice Scalia knows it, but forgetting to equip them with rifles before you send them to battle.

Should the house fold and let any of the provisions of the Senate bill survive to see a signature from Bush, voting for Bush will turn out to be the worst political mistake that America ever made.

Well then, support the guys in the house instead of tearing down an otherwise outstanding President. If the guys in the House stand strong on this, the Senate bill will die and the GOP will hold or gain seats in the House for exactly the right reason.I voted for Bush once in 2000, but I never make the same mistake twice.

So your answer to my earler question is that you would like Al Gore to be in office implementing the conservative agenda. What do you think Gore's immigration reform package would look like? What would Gore's War on Terror look like? What would Gore's economy look like? What would Gore's record on ethics look like?
