He's right, of course, and I think the conservatives need to GO ON THE DEFENSE about it, before it's too late. For victory & freedom!!!
To: Saundra Duffy
Is that the same as "seething with righteous indignation"? Just asking.

Rant on, FReepers . . . For victory & freedom!!!
To: Saundra Duffy
George Bush isn't conservative blah, blah, blah. Fine. What's
your program, pal? How do we advance the conservative movmement?
(BTW, some answers to the stupid question posed by the author include: 1) National missile defense, 2) Supporting gun rights, 3) Maintaining a high profile pro-life position, 4) Rebuilding military strength and preparedness, 5) Opposing the Kyoto treaty, etc.)

"GO ON THE OFFENSE" Ha! You know what I meant! (I hate it when that happens - must have been another "senior moment"). For victory & freedom!!!
To: Faraday
1) National missile defense, 2) Supporting gun rights, 3) Maintaining a high profile pro-life position, 4) Rebuilding military strength and preparedness, 5) Opposing the Kyoto treaty, etc.)So, should we be satisfied with a few crumbs?
To: Saundra Duffy
Thanks very much for posting this article. Truth is always welcome. Now we can sit back and wait for the Bush is GOD folk.
To: Faraday
"High profile" is not how I would describe Bush's prolife actions.

Now we can sit back and wait for the Bush is GOD folk. Read #7 above. (They're here already.)
To: Saundra Duffy
Missile defense? Please elaborate Faraday. Kyoto treaty? Only a masochistic psychopath would sign on to it. Gun rights? Where? Maintaining a high profile pro life position? Pro life, yes. High profile? He hardly speaks of it. Military build up? We are at war. Srike 5 !!

The economy is on the rebound but stock prices are in the dumper and personal and retirement accounts are strained. There are several issues Bush has won on. Tax Relief, Right to sue HMO's was foiled, He's won some ground on his Education plan and making states accountable and I believe ultimately he'll win on his Energy and Misstle defense policies. You see the glass as half empty or completely empty I see it as half full.

"High profile" is not how I would describe Bush's prolife actions. Nor on any other conservative issue. Good point.
To: GodBlesBush
Don't get me wrong. I adore President Bush. That was me CRYING in front of the TV on the day of his inauguration. It's just that I get tired of our conservative issues being pushed aside in favor of political correctness and political expediency. That's all.
To: GodBlesBush
He's won some ground on his Education plan and making states accountable It's a crying shame that he couldn't have just read the US Constitution and realized that the federal government was given NO authority to making anyone "accountable" in the education arena. Our, previously, wonderful education system (which was run by the individual states) began its downhill slide during the 1960s when the feds got involved to begin with. If Bush were TRULY a conservative, he would be abolishing all federal involvement in education, not expanding its powers.
To: Saundra Duffy
The cure for the "movement" is to work your asses off to get people elected. It's not rocket science. Just go door-to-door and prosletyze like the JW's do. Talk to blacks and hispanics and asians, too. Get them on board. The elections will take care of themselves. The demographic shifts that hurt Bush in 2000 will get worse by 2004 and worse by 2008. Not all white voters will vote GOP.

"Tax Relief, Right to sue HMO's was foiled, He's won some ground on his Education plan and making states accountable and I believe ultimately he'll win on his Energy and Misstle defense policies. You see the glass as half empty or completely empty I see it as half full."
Won ground on education? 8 billion extra dollars with absolutely no accountability? He set us back `10 years !! Energy policy is likewise a total bust. The glass is 3/4 empty, and there is a pinhole leak in the bottom of the glass.
