Oh yeah, at POST #370, "no one" is paying attention to the thread you have so ceremoniously seen fit to link.

[Amelia]

Here's the post you linked me to:

I do like Bush and I know he's the best man for the job right now. I don't even know another conservative who could do the job. Do you? Have you any names?

I agree with that post. Do you?

[Howlin]

Oh, that's what this is all about!!!! I finally get it; he was upset because ELSE had a thread today and he wasn't the center of attention.

He LOVES attention, good or bad. All disruptors do.

[Grando Calrissian]

All Hail Rush Limbaugh. Bow down. Bathe in his reflected glory.

[trick question]

Hey, since you seem to be pushing what Rush says as good advice for everyone, when the election rolls around and Rush and Coulter and so forth are encouraging people to get to the polls and vote for Republicans, you are going to be leading the charge, right?

[onyx]

Never mind my FReep mail! I get it!!!!!!! ROFLMBO!!!!!!!!

---- Principled Conservatives as in conservatives with principals don't think its a Clever Strategery. ----

That's our Toad, I mean Todd.

[TLBSHOW]

I don't need attention but W needs a good freeping.

[billbears]

Far be it from me to actually agree with Todd, and you know my absolute distaste for CINOs, especially ones in my home state ;), but when I go home for lunch and actually hear Sean Hannity criticizing Republicans for their massive spending packages, I think moderate to mainstream Republicans (note I did not say conservatives) are starting to listen and pay attention to what this President is doing to our nation

[Howlin]

You must have missed this post today:

To: Scenic Sounds

So will everyone if Bush gets his act together, if not he is toast!

Rush just said,,,,he doesn't care if the democrats are elected and it would be better because then the conservatives would hold them to account unlike Bush and his liberal democrat agenda.

I hope Satan is bundled up tight, cause now you're a disrupter to print Rush's thoughts on this forum. LMAO The irony of it all. ROTF

[Howlin]

Here's a great thread from today:

George W. Bush--The First 30 Months

[gorush]

"That must be YOU, since you're the only one who seems to be listening to him"

I beg to differ...

[Howlin]

cause now you're a disrupter to print Rush's thoughts on this forum

Nice try, but he's a disruptor because his one and only "job" here is to divide conservatives.

[onyx]

Yes, I've been reading it off and on.

[deport]

Hey showboy..... here's another great thread from today....

---

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush's campaign said Tuesday it has raised at least $34.2 million since he announced his 2004 re-election effort in May, with some checks still to be counted.

The Republican's total dwarfs fund-raising by his nine Democratic rivals, including Howard Dean, who racked up more than $800,000 in a daylong Web-a-thon on Monday that put him firmly among his party's money leaders as the second fund-raising quarter ended at midnight. [note no other Republican mentioned in the money chase...]

---

Now the question becomes who is going to win the President election in 2004, President Bush or the Democrat Candidate? It will be between on them as the two viable candidates. Money counts in who gets there and you haven't shown anyone else with any money to challenge President Bush for the Republican nomination.... huh showboy?

click and give a buck

Rush just said...
...he doesn't care if the democrats are elected and it would be better because then the conservatives would hold them to account unlike Bush and his liberal democrat agenda.

In the year 2000 I stated the same thing.  For that I was soundly criticized.

As a conservative, I watched the Democrats on bended knee no matter what President William Jefferson Blythe Clinton did.  The Democrats had some pretty sick agenda items, but if they truly thought they were right, I could at least understand that.  I could not understand them underwriting his treasonous activity.  I could not underwrite his lying under perjury and multitude of other, what seemed like crimes to me.  They were giving the man a pass on what they knew to be wrong.  More than anything, that is what blew me away.

Then the year 2000 rolled around.  Candidate George Bush was making statements on the campaign trail that seriously concerned me.  They sounded like ultra moderate, read that liberal agenda policies.  This concerned me so much so that I come up with the following hypothesis.

I stated that if a, quote's conservative President (by perception), were popular and proposed liberal legislation, his followers might likely grant him a free pass much as the Democrats had their President for his indiscretions.  We're not talking about the same level of indiscretions, so don't go there.  But pushing a $400 medication bill for Medicare is not a conservative act, yet right on que his supporters have fallen in line to praise him for this.

Look Howlin, I'm not here to disrupt.  I do think it's patently absurd to call someone a disrupter for posting Rush's comments in disagreement with Bush, but give Bush a pass on some of these issues.

The truth is, if Bill Clinton were proposing some of this 'stuff', you would join me in criticizing him for it.  That you join me now doesn't surprise me, but it does sadden me.

You take care.

[DoughtyOne]

Pardon me: That you won't join me now...

[arasina]

I guess we gotta guess us some of these!!!!

HUH? WHAT? Who are these people?

RUSH BUSH

[cyncooper]

heheheh

[sarasmom]

Oh, I dont know Howlin, I think Bush does a pretty good job of that, all on his own.
Poltitics is not the breath of life to most voters.Most people have varying degrees of interest in the subject.
I would venture to guess that most people vote for whomever they think will do the best job, representing them, on issues they care deeply about.
IMHO, GWB is pushing the 50/50 mark for me now, and I dont consider the position of POTUS a parlor game.
I wish I could feel confident in voting for him for 2004.I don't.
Goodness knows, I am sick and tired of holding my nose while voting for POTUS.
