What an onslaught of personal, harshly negative invective being spewing forth daily from the Left and their comrades in the elitist media!
Its been non-stop, at a near-dizzying pace on any issue they think will gain traction.
And all of this from the very same hypocrites who so vehemently and falsely charge Republicans with being mean-spirited and evil.
It shouldnt come as any surprise, because the Left knows no decency and has no shame. What is amazing is the relentless and desperate nature of the attacks.
From the economy (read: Clintons recession, which began in October) to Kyoto (which the Senate turned away by a unanimous vote) to the ABM Treaty (which ceased to have any relevance when the U.S.S.R. disintegrated) to missile defense (which frightens the Russians, the communist Chinese and their friends at the New York Times) to the surplus (which should be returned to taxpayers, especially during a slow down) to the Middle East conflict (which the President wisely has maintained must first be realistically addressed by the parties themselves before U.S. involvement) to the Presidents supposed "lack of intelligence (notwithstanding that he graduated from both Yale and Harvard, unlike Junior Gore who flunked out of divinity school and mysteriously left law school) to any other issue, real or imagined, the Left attempts to bang the President about the head and shoulders in a sick attempt to belittle him.
The President, to his great credit, hasnt allowed any of these attacks by the Leftist elite to affect his policy considerations a single iota. He has a strong sense of self, something sorely lacking on the Left, which bolsters him amid this smelly chorus of personal disparagement and seems to steel his resolve.
There is a valuable lesson to be learned from George W. Bush: ignore the Left and do whats right by the people. Republicans in Congress and elected office at the state and local levels should follow his lead, for all too often they seek to please their natural enemies rather than working to best them by enacting their agendas.
Thats the best way to deal with the Left: by simply ignoring them and moving forward, leaving them squealing in our dust, to the delight of a grateful electorate.
That goes for some on the right, too.
Which is exactly why I was snickering at Newsmax being the source of this article!
Get a freaking grip.
That is about as possible as Pitchfork Buchanan getting elected.
HE'S ONLSY BEEN PRESIDENT FOR 8 MONTHS, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD !
HE'S ONLY BEEN PRESIDENT FOR 8 MONTHS, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD !
Of course you're right. I am expecting too much. Insane posters simply don't have the capacity for sanity.
Perfect. I can see it now, one year, two years, three years from now you Bushophiles will be saying "He's only been president for x-years, for crying out loud!" Admit it, there's no "bridge too far" for you Duh-bya lovers.
Who do you love?
There are new options out there and Bush is a man who can look outside the box, work out a solution that is fair to all and see about it getting a try.
Yet you people only want what you had when the constitution was first formed. You will never go back to those days because times have changed - just like we cannot go back to our teenage years.
Many of you are like the oldtimers in a church. Anything the young ones come up with a little different - like singing two songs then a prayer rather than one song and a prayer, gets them all riled up.
I know Bush is a good man, I know he has good values, and I know he loves this country and all its people. He is not corrupt, will take care of this country and do the best job possible. I choose to look at what he is doing before I jump the gun.
