I don’t know if Rab voted for Bush, if he didn’t he’s smarter than I was.

I voted for him and I indeed feel betrayed. And foolish I allowed myself to believe he was a conservative. Anyone who still believes that...what can I say. If not crazy certainly willfully ignorant.

Of course a democrat President with the same record as Bush would be hated here. That’s a no brainer. I dare anyone to argue that.

I say this as a very partisan Republican. Take off the blinders. Defending lousy Republicrats like our President just makes one look foolish.

I think if not for the war and consequent rallying around Bush as CiC this would have been realized sooner by more freepers.

McCain Feingold is one thing. McCain took all the hate for that one. Bush signed the damn thing! Sign #1 he was no good. Followed by his oking of massive agricultural pork.

2004 was my first election, and unfortunately, I voted for Bush. Big mistake; I regret my vote and would take it back now if I could.

On the flip side, change nothing about the historical record except to put a D after his name and the libs who hate his guts would love him.

Might I suggest a support group, if you don’t currently belong to one. I saw what Pres. Bush would be like early in his presidency, he hasn’t really changed much since then. I have disagreed with many his policies, some of my areas of disagreement are the same as others on this forum but I also think “revenue sharing” for church charities will result in government trying to control them. I also see Pres. Bush as more honorable than most others in Washington politics or the MSM and think that is why he is attached so viscously .... Honorable people (think Sarah Palin) exposes their ignominy.

I also think we are in a great struggle for our country (your petty tirades are a distraction), one side will prevail .... I would like that side to be the one that avocats individual rights/freedom and security for its citizens (within Constitutional boundaries). If we should lose I wish to stand with a group that is “proud and unbending in defeat”. The left (I believe) will resort to violence, either to maintain their degree of control or to eliminate those that they see as a threat, each person will have to stand with the left, stand against them or hide in the swamp/mountains. I don’t want to live in a country where there is no joy nor hope and I pray for the strength and courage to resist.
