"...conservatives getting upset because Bush is sitting in DC with his thumb up his butt and blowing the people off on the real issues such as a border fence."
Conservatives are upset and should be, but I don't think Bush is doing as you say. As for the border fence, you are correct. Why should our borders be less secure than Iraq's?
I suspect that a great number of "Bush Bashers" actually voted for him twice, as I did. I support our troops 110% and support the President on most issues. That dang border thing just won't go away.
The border problem was there before Bush and it is going to there after Bush....
We, those who love this Republic, had better start concentrating on the things we agree upon, rather than those that we don't, or we are doomed.
What is insidious, on this Forum especially, is that people of honest, traditionally valued, conservative principles are labeled as Bashers, when we speak our minds, which is one of our inalienable rights.
It was much more civil around here, one conservative to another, back when we were united against the Xlinton team. And I have been around long enough to remember those days. Unfortunately, with the likes of some of the posters to even this thread, those days, more than likely, won't be seen again!
