Apparently, Dubya didn't see what happened this past Saturday in DC and 45 states. (BT, what happened to the other 12 states?)
The Republican Party long ago ceased to be any kind of effective vehicle for advancing conservatism.
Do you remember when Ed Gillespie (then RNC chairman) said there was no place in the party for limited government types?

In fairness, the quotes were supposedly made two years ago. There weren't any tea parties back then.

I’m laughing right now at all the diehard GOP voters here on FR. You guys remind me of the typical beaten wife one sees attacking the cops as they haul away her abusive husband. “But Ah still loves him!” they cry. “Ah can change him!”
LOL

Up until a couple of days ago, I had never heard of this Litimer guy. It sounds like he’s got an axe or two to grind.

Ah, so you are one of the Freepers who believe this guy Latimer's every word even though you had likely never heard of him a few days ago.
Very typical.
To: TBP
Yes, he did redefine the Republican Party.
However not for the better. As evidenced by the choice of McCain as the Standard Bearer.
Others in the mix were lost because of rule changes by Nat’l GOP Party leaders and by the go-along-get-along MSM.
End result: a screwing of the American people.
Yes, ‘We the People’ got screwed!

Let me tell you something," the president said. "I whupped Gary Bauer's ass in 2000. So take out all this movement stuff. There is no movement." That's Hilarious.

He’s another in a long line of socialist pile of crap!

Tax cuts and defending the nation (at last!!!) against Islamofascists was a good start for the Bush Administration. Sadly, the remainder of his administration was largely disappointing and clearly NOT conservative.
He and the Republican congress spent like drunken sailors (no offense to drunken sailors) which was a major reason they lost in 2006 and 2008.
Check out The National Debt Road Trip 2:46 video, to see a graphic representation of Big Government Republicans.

Bush seemed to go soft in the head part way into his second term.
Maybe he just couldn’t take the pressure any longer.
