It’s getting a little crowded in this boat, isn’t it? I don’t know how many people I know who feel exactly that way. I know the Bush Defenders will rush in to excoriate us and tell us how valuable his supreme court appointments will be to the conservative cause in years to come. And of course to sing the praises of his tax cuts. I give him credit for both, and will be eternally grateful that 9-11 happened on a Bush watch, not a Gore watch. But all things being equal I am convinced he has become a liability, not an asset.

I wake most mornings hoping it’s all been a bad dream, but alas the first thing I hear on news is how many brave fighting men and women have given their lives fighting a politically correct war and how the President has reached across the aisle again in a bipartisan move that will come to haunt us for sure.

The only hope I have at this point is that he will become so much a burden on the conservative cause that when a real conservative, like Fred Thompson, comes along there will be a rush to embrace him and save our country, and my sanity I might add.

Waiting for the next Bush betrayal is like having a car that won’t run sitting in the driveway. When someone points out it has no tires you point out what nice lines it has. When they mention the lack of a steering wheel you point out what a nice pattern there is on the upholstery. When they point out the hood is charred and there’s obviously been an engine fire you remind them of what a great vacation you took in that car the second year you had it. All in all it reminds me of the Gipper’s joke with the punch line “Well sir, you don’t kill a pig like that all at once!”

It’s time for some of the party faithful to make a trip to the White House and tell the president in no uncertain terms that he needs help. Help in getting back on track and help to keep his shrinking core of supporters from deciding that even Hillary is looking good. At least with her you could understand why she would do some of the things she would do, after all she’s a liberal.

Yeah, we now have a dangerous President, he has either gone mad or has revealed his true self, his true stratergy.
Watch as this Administration and the State Dept rush to give the Internationalist, UN, Global Left everything they want, he will gladly push the International treaties like LOST, ICC...etal. The Conservative COre is all that stands between this...we have become the enemy in our own country.

I’ve noticed in recent weeks, the Bush defenders have become fewer and fewer. After the last election and Rummy was fired, I came on FR with a rant. A day or so later, I recanted. But now, I just don’t know. I can’t defend him anymore, not when he refuses to defend himself or America. I am afraid this country will suffer a terrible upheavel in the next 10 or 20 years. We have survived events like this in the past but that was before the nuke age. The only good thing I see happening - for me that is - is that I am becoming more attuned with God and Christianity.
