G.W. and his “compassionate conservatism” is b.s.
He never was a conservative and we were sold a bad bill of goods.
Yep by the McCain wing of the party.
The Bush bashing on FR is disgusting.
We have not even begun to realize just how much we will miss President Bush and Vice President Cheney.
You need to add the other 90 percent of the GOP RINOs names
to that list...
GWB has made it next to impossible too for a Republican revival in 2010. Look at the next round of Senate races to cost the part at least another five to seven seats, starting with that awful NH.
Sure, we're supposed to just overlook HIS actions in helping the dems to destroy the country because he has an "R" next to his name.. now that is disgusting.
“Sure, we’re supposed to just overlook HIS actions in helping the dems to destroy the country because he has an “R” next to his name.. now that is disgusting.”
Everyone, including myself are aware of what Bush did or did not do to the Republicans. You can’t read any threads here on FR without seeing the Bush bashing. It is non stop and sounds like a bunch of crying little kids. Why do you get so much enjoyment out of it?
Is it bush bashing to point out HIS actions so other will know... especially the entrenched RINOs...
No it is not, pointing out facts hurts, but it is what it is,
I didn’t make the decisions for him as a matter of fact he IGNORED his base... and look where it got him!
McCain was/is ever since South Carolina 2000, the leader of the RINOs so he can have alllll the credit. He and his good liberal friends tried to cut President Bush and by extension US off at the knees at every opportunity. This bunch went to WAR against Americans election night 2000 and are still on a rampage.
Enjoy yourself then.
I would much rather be laying on a beach on the big island, but helping to save our country takes a little more priority..
.
and turning a blind eye to the damage done BY your own party will not help you in the end.
Can’t agree with you more... all the more reason to dump a RINO infested party...
W spent a lot of his political capital trying to reach across and work with his enemies across the aisle. Now they will try to repay him by attacking him even more, to the point of prosecution. The true hate of the left will be shown by their actions in the next few months.
“and turning a blind eye to the damage done BY your own party will not help you in the end.”
I am not turning a blind eye to the damage done by the Republican party. All I’m saying is that the continual and nonstop Bush bashing does no good. But for some people, it sure makes them feel good, I guess.
And by the way, the Republican party is not “my” party. The Republicans left me, I didn’t leave them.
DieHard,
What you write was true until this past Autumn, but now we have a socialist system in place and a budget spinning utterly out of control, thanks to President Bush and his treasury secretary.
In addition, while some of us may have expected the illegal alien debacle (although I don’t know that any of us thought President Bush would fight so hard for amnesty), I don’t think anyone expected him to fail to veto legislation at any cost, letting the budget grow as it did. In particular, he was so resolute about bringing home-ownership to poor Hispanics that he did nothing about Fanny and Freddie beyond making a speech or two.
“The true hate of the left will be shown by their actions in the next few months.”
And the spineless Republicans will do nothing.
No, we knew what he was.
But it was still a better alternative than Gore or Kerry.
I just wish we, as conservatives, would stop going along with the RINO’s when served up a Dole, or a Bush, or a McCain.
It’s not the conservatives who did this to the Republican party, it’s the RINO’s.
