So can I conclude by that response that you don't have an answer to my question as to why you might want to appear foolish on a political forum by saying things that aren't true? Or can I conclude that you don't mind looking foolish? Perhaps in your next post, you can answer my question about the dopiness of your "not a Texan" accusation.

There are few people more conservative than I, and I will say this in response to your accusations of our honorable 43rd President.......

Your comment about his father and taxes is irrelevant to the discussion. We are discussing the son. Reagan raised taxes too, but I'm quite sure you don't have the same contempt for him. George W. Bush didn't raise taxes.

I disagree with some of his policies in his attempt to reform immigration, but I am familiar enough with the man to know that he did what he did based on his own principles. Disagreeing with your politics doesn't mean a person is unprincipled.

New world order?? Cult stuff. He stood strongly for American sovereignty in front of the UN, in his opposition to the World Court, in his foreign policy overall. That's a loser of an argument.

He did grow the government, and as a conservative I don't like that, but so did Reagan, and I didn't like it then either. The idea of shrinking government, even with a committed small government leader like Reagan, doesn't seem to be a possibility. But in any case, it's not a reason to despise the man.

The one thing you have missed about President Bush is that what he said he would do, he did. I think you're confusing the Republicans in Congress with him. He made it very clear what he stood for when he ran for election and re-election. If you weren't listening, that's not his fault.

I do not "trust our government and politicians" as a general rule, but I do trust President Bush because he earned my trust. It is folly to deny that there are any honest politicians. It is cynical and illogical. You just have to have your eyes open, and examine the people who represent you.

I guess for some of you, it's easier to follow the crowd than to think for yourselves. I prefer to think.

>>So can I conclude by that response that you don't have an answer to my question<<

No, you can conclude that I don't OWE you an answer or owe you anything at all.

I'm not your child......go scold one of them and stop all your sophomoric rose colored ranting and move on your way.

It's a long journey through this life....don't waste it getting upset over compassionate conservatism.

Gezzz.......relax will ya.
