So what’s your point? We’re not supposed to look for better then GEORGE W BUSH because he was better then Reagan? Well I’m looking for somebody better, because George W Bush has hurt the conservative agenda more then he’s helped it. We’ve lost control of Congress and we very well could lose the White House in 08,and while it may not be all Bush’s fault,he certainly can take a bow for his part in the current situation !!!
If you’re not using Ronald Reagan as your conservative benchmark, who are you using? . . . [You really should learn your history: What happened to Ronald Reagan and the Republicans in 1986? and in 1987? . . . During this period, MANY so-called conservatives deserted Reagan as well; in fact, a few of these ‘conservatives’ are leading the attack on Bush today (e.g., Buckley and the NRO crowd) . . . If we lose the Presidency in 2008 it will be a NORMATIVE historical event . . . It will also have been enabled by ‘conservatives’ who didn’t know how good they had it until their stridency cost them everything! . . . How does President Bloomberg sound?!]
