What sickens the most is that we have this man of great, unquestionable integrity in the White House, a man who has already accomplished great things for the conservative cause, and he is being trashed like he is garbage by people claiming to be conservatives.

I have never seen anything so disgusting, and irrational in my life.

Why do these people not know history? Why do they not have a grasp on reality? What is wrong here??

Something is definitely "up", ohioWfan.

Maybe I'm mistaken, but what continues to appear to me? Some folks are acting out and against President Bush. Perhaps he didn't pay them the homage they demand. Perhaps he didn't include them in as they thought they should be. In late 2003 half and early parts of 2004, I saw something similar to what is going on now. And I've seen it before then.

It just means its time for me to do what I've got to do, and not be spending time on the boards arguing with the single-issue voter.

What is wrong here? First inkling: they didn't like his "spending". Nor did they appreciate not being invited into the "inner circle".

Nonetheless, I have faith in the Bush Admin. They've proven themselves to me. Something is definitely up.

And I'll wager, once again, we'll be seeing certain conservatives hang-dogging it, and wondering how "this" happened.

I do understand some folks getting all upset and because they "understand" that with a stroke of a pen, President Bush can make "everything good" happen.

Sure. He can. And the immediate gratifications are immense. The long-term, however, bodes another story.

Some days I think President Bush is permitting these things and only so the usual suspects won't keep yanking his chain when he leaves office.

President Bush is one of us. He doesn't live for politics. The same can't be said for others.

Nonetheless, all things being equal, I'll be watching, doing what I can, and waiting for that trumpet which is inevitable. Rope-a-dope is going on all over the place.

So, don't lose faith, friend.

Exactly, not until they have lost it will the realize what they had. I find that much of the foot stamping, child like, petulant temper tantrums of the President's conservative base is sometimes nothing more than unthinking selfishness. Like you I find myself getting steamed over the lack of thought that goes into some of this opposition.

I don't understand it except these so called conservatives are behaving as the parody the left makes of them. If they are in fact honest conservatives, then they have driven me from their ranks. I throw away their literature, I have turned off their radio shows.
