"Imagine what he could have gotten done if he had had support of our elected GOP congress? But, lo, they prefer their buddies in congress and will squander their time attempting to please the democrats."
I'm no fan of the GOP. Actually, that's understating the point. In my view the GOP is the one organization in America most responsible for frustrating the hopes and aspirations of conservatives. Of course there are individual Republicans who are quite good and whom I admire.
One contrast between the Democrats and the Republicans is that my party does actually make some attempt to represent it's left wing constituency. The same cannot be said about the GOP and it's conservative constituency. Given the choice between a Democratic division in front of me and Republican division behind me, I'll take the Democratic division in front of me.
"What a waste of an opportunity, what a waste of the conservative donated money. All they are fit for is to pad their own pockets, to further their own careers and to undercut our agenda."
Pretty much. And it got to the point where their craven opportunism was noticed by even the most uninterested voters. That's the single biggest reason why the GOP lost the election.
It's interesting how the lamestream media as well as conservatives have bought into the lie that it was the war in Iraq that cost the GOP the 2006 election. The media's own election polls indicated that the biggest issue on voters minds was not Iraq, but corruption. But that seems to have been conveniently forgotten by a left wing that wants to retreat from Iraq and by a GOP that doesn't want to focus more attention on it's own internal mess.
At least you are a thinking democrat.
I could talk to you for hours about why you should fear the democrats. It is a pity that since you come on FR, FR has failed to show you why none should ever trust a democrat with their country.
FR has failed in showing you the danger of the democrats because the silly purists or those needing attention come on here and trash Bush (siding with the MSM and democrats) because as superman Bush failed to be their personal one time president of the U.S.
I will counter their efforts from now on because that "teach the GOP a lesson" tactic lost this election. But, it was lost by the representatives and senators that did absolutely nothing to utilize our 8 years in office.
You also never found much complaint about them - only Bush.
So, you still think the democrats will protect this country for your grandchildren. What an absolute failure for FR and the tons of anti-Bush posters here.
