IMHO the GOP implosion began at a very specific moment in time:

That moment, was when George W Bush called those Republicans who had voted for him, supported him and considered him their inspiration: “Vigilantes”.

Then, threw those two border agents in jail, sucking up to Mexico to such an extent - as to utterly demoralize the entire conservative movement in America.

That was the beginning of the GOP’s current mess.

For all the good things George W Bush did - he really jumped the shark on globalism.

And we had warnings BEFORE the 2000 election too. Which is why the election was so close between Gore and Bush and had to be contested. A lot of TRUE CONSERVATIVES like myself knew what Bush was from the beginning. Our warnings fell on deaf ears.

Ramos and Campien were convicted in open court by a jury of their peers.

Bush was great as C I C and his support for the military. After that he stunk......but he never said he was conservative, just a compassionate conservative...I never could figure out what that was then I had a Eureka moment...It meant social liberal......D- on domestic policy. A as commander in chief...F in freedom of speech, F in balls when it came to what the democrats wanted...

But in being a decent human being a A- I don't think he likes conservatives nor does his lovely wife Laura...but she was a great first lady...

I really didn't have much respect for him in defending himself against the lies told about him, so I quit defending him also. If he didn't care, I didn't either...

That and his smart-arsed quip in reference to his amnesty bill, “See you at the signing”.
