I guess if they're going to spend my tax dollars to subsidise farming I'd just as soon they be up front about it and pass the bill and sign it publically vs sneaking in the emergency spending while we're not paying attention.I have a better idea... why not help Rep. Ron Paul and likeminded Libertarians repeal the income tax so they don't have those dollars to waste in the first place. Many (even quite a few Freepers) will say that's a pipe dream but it has the added advantage of being both the right thing to do and the most practical way to prevent government abuse of our money. After all it's not the abuse of power that's the problem it's the power to abuse.

Zoyd, I have been in the bodyshop business for most of my adult life, I'm a grandfather now and I have paid more than my fair share in taxes, I am not for more taxes, just for spending the ones they collect more wisely. The tax cut last year helped me a bunch, as long as Bush does'nt ask to raise my taxes, he can schuffle around what's coming how he want's. And judging from how the congressman and Senators voted on this bill, The American people must want it. As I already said, I don't know the in's and out's of this bill, So I can't comment on it. But to all those who won't vote for him in 2004, Who will they vote for ? Put the candidates name up and we will debate his chances

I'm not sure, but inflation could have something to do with it? Maybe not. But I know I'd sure like to be able to buy a car or house at the same price I could buy one for in the mid 90's.

Reagan wasn't a conservative either. He signed the farm bills, he signed the big spending bills, he appointed Sandry Day O'Conner (pro abortion)to supreme court, he signed steel tariffs. Why? He did it to get his priorities through because the House and Senate were controlled by democrats. He signed the big bills which would include his priorities of upgrading the military and tax cuts (sound familiar?). With the Senate controlled by democrats, President Bush is following the Reagan model. Why didn't Reagan use his political capital. He was good buddies with Tip O'Neil and Tip was no conservative. I'm doing as Rush would in being absurd to make a point. Reagan was one of our greatest Presidents, he was a conservative, and he knew how to win over the American people. President Bush is trying to get Republican majorities in both houses to eliminate a lot of this other nonsense.

Ron Paul will make more difference in one day on the Hill than any other Libertarian that has made local office.That's a specious argument as he may be more visible to some but the hundreds of elected Libertarians in local office are making a difference in ways that we may not see for awhile but are every bit as significant as what Rep. Paul is doing. And of course I very much appreciate what he's doing as a Libertarian Republican.

Yeah! And all this b*tchin' at Bush would be exponentially more productive if it were directed at Dashle et al.
Absolutely.
To be honest, the coup that happened when Jeffords bolted the GOP would have caused civil wars in a lot of countries around the world. No matter what they say, Tom Daschle is the ILLEGITIMATE Senate majority leader. His position was not attained by the will of the people but by the treason of one. Now, if Jeffords would have resigned and Vermont would have held a special election and he won as an Independent, that would be different. But Jeffords is America's 21st century Benedict Arnold.
Would Judge Pickering's nomination been voted on the floor if the GOP lead the Senate? Without a doubt.
Would all of Dubya's judicial nominations be voted on if the GOP lead the Senate? Without a doubt.
Would CFR been initially brought to the floor for a vote if the GOP lead the Senate? Without a doubt it would not have.
Would we be drilling in ANWR right now while the caribou made love by the warmth of the pipelines and multiplied if the GOP lead the Senate? Most assuredly.
Bush, like any human being, can be criticized. However, my criticism of him will be held to those things in which he had total control over. I can't criticize him for living with the current political landscape that was formed by Jeffords' selling him out.
It shocks me that the coup d'etat of the Senate isn't talked about more among conservatives.

His incessant, relentless pandering to minority factions has really gotten on my last nerve lately. Frankly, if I never hear the word "compassionate" again it will be too soon.
I don't know if you consider the Senate to be one of the "minority factions" but 50 RATs, 49 Pubs, and 1 Independent is not a minority.

He does Lie a lot, doesn't he?
"I was deeply concerned about the drift toward a more powerful federal government. I was particularly outraged by two pieces of legislation, the Natural Gas Policy Act and the Fuel Use Act. It seemed to me that elite central planners were determining the course of our nation. Allowing the government to dictate the price of natural gas was a move toward European-style socialism. If the federal government was going to take over the natural gas business, what would it set its sights on next?"

Way to go jr.
More Lies.

You should criticize Bush for recreating this landscape for the 2002 elections as he sides with RINOs and left-wing Republicans in primaries around the country. He's setting himself up for another Jeffords-type disaster by helping these bottom feeders (Ganske, Alexander, Riordan, etc.).

"It shocks me that the coup d'etat of the Senate isn't talked about more among conservatives."You wan't to know why? I believe that there is quite a few RATS in FReepers clothes posting articles from every liberal rag they can get their hands on, and then we have every single one of the 2%rs here frothing at the mouth everytime Bush doesn't tow their party line. Anyone who thinks because Bush is the President now, we can count on him overturning 40 years of liberal policies is dreaming. the only way he will be re-elected is to take the stands that are critical and bend on those that are not. Anything else and we will see Hillary or worse in 04.

Excellent points.
No matter what they say, Tom Daschle is the ILLEGITIMATE Senate majority leader.
And that's a great way of putting it.

You totally missed what I was talking about.
Let me ask you a question: Does the coup d'etat in the Senate factor in to your criticism of Dubya?

Jesus and His Army of super-annointed saints is the ONLY answer to the ills of the world. I like President Bush, but he was born of a woman. We need 100% born-again from the incorruptible seed of God leaders. Then we will see the earth filled with incorruption, not corruption. With eternal life, not a constant procession of funerals. With perfect health, not doctors and hospitals in every community.
"The whole creation groans and travails, waiting for the manifestation of the Sons (plural) of God."

Mumbling to myself!!!!!!!!!!Don't believe it...it makes me sick to realize that the spineless GOP would rather lose that seat to a Democrat gun grabber than stand up for its professed principles. Every broken promise from the Republicans creates opportunities for Libertarians, Constitutionalists and others so don't blame the victims, blame the victimizers.
