I'm sure you don't need me to approve of your opinions but I will say that you have finally gotten around to expressing a quite correct point of view. The pendulum swings wildly to the left with the Dems and to the left with the Republicans. You are so very, very correct.
I'll add to it by saying, if a group genereated wish list of what FR members would like to see changed in this country were put together, Bush would not score at the top of the list (perhaps we should try it, a wish list).
- Use the military to shore up the border to stop the flood of illegal immigration.
Bush Score - 0
- Take effective steps to stop or slow illegal immigration across the boarder.
Bush Score - 1
- Next question?
(scales is 0 to 10)
I will add a few more possibilities: -Enforce the second amendment
Bush Score - 0
Enforce due process clause of the 5th amendment
Bush score- negative 5 (enemy combatants are not just a failure to enforce but an intentional violation on his part).
Enforce 10th amendment
Bush score - 0 (Many examples. Let's just list Medicare drug benefit for currency.)
