“He called the farm bill disgraceful and would veto it if he were president.”
Hey, I supported Bush in 2000 because he said we had to end our farm subsidies and he was going to do that!! So, Fred, forgive my cynicism if I don’t believe you have the guts to do what you say. Did you ever, as Senator, demand a smaller farm bill that what any president offered???
Bush the compassionate conservative?
Fred voted no on the 2002 farm bill

Right! Fred, I don't believe you'll do what you say because someone else didn't do what they said!
