I do have to wonder how many who are posting pro-Fast Track Trade would be doing so if Gore had won the election. The blind can not see past their own parties term. The question must be addressed besides the constitutional aspect is do you want Al Gore or Hillary Clinton to have these powers. If the answer is no then why would any thinking person believe these choices will disappear or do a Cinderella when Bush leaves office?

I disagree with much of the Bush agenda as most of it resembles much of what Gore pushed as well just not as extreme. Conservatives in the GOP aren't even addressing conservative issues anymore much less constitutional ones. They instead address just how far left can they go to get a Dem vote from the other side and get away with it.

Conservatism and the call for pro-constitutional government in the GOP is dead. It died in 1995. Only a small fraction of conservatism remains and it's mostly in the way of monotary issues. Even then when up against the billfold or the constitution the billfold wins hands down. The RNC just doesn't want to tell the survivors the truth. It's afraid they might ask for their inheritance.

"Conservatives in the GOP aren't even addressing conservative issues anymore much less constitutional ones."

The sad fact is that there are only "conservatives" in the GOP because they have completely redefined the term.
