We don't need the GOP. We need conservative rage.

What has the GOP really given broken glass Republicans in exchange for electing Bush? Has it backed a socially-conservative replacement for Sen. Jesse Helms here in North Carolina? NO - it's made an all-out effort to stick this socially-conservative state with RINO Liddy Dole, even having Bush endorse her before the primary was held. Liddy Dole's 2000 presidential campaign was as liberal as Hillary on social issues - and now, like Hitlery, Liddy Dole is being parachuted into this state she's not lived in for over 40 years.

Bush hasn't even backed arming airline pilots since 9/11 - in spite of overwhelming public support for that. About the sole substantive thing he's done for us on gun issues is to appoint a pro-gun Attorney General and tell the UN to go to hell on gun control.

moaning about the short term will not win the long term. WE MUST get the democrats out. Out and out of power. A democrat in washington DC must be as useless as earmuffs on a fish.

Hold you nose and vote the deed. We have to look at the loong term prize.

In Bush’s defense, he didn’t push the ‘94 gun control bill either.
