I'm starting to think a Democrat in the White House is the only way to get a Republican Congress to grow a spine and/or balls. If Clinton had tried to pass half of what Bush is pushing (particularly in health care) there would be a hue and cry not only in Congress but also here on freerepublic.

Lots of heavy griping going on around here about Bush and the Republicans from the sit-on-the-hands or third party types. But no matter how many times I've asked, none of you have ever presented a viable plan to advance the conservative cause that has any chance of succeeding without first giving up and handing the government back to the avowed baby-killers and America-hating socialists.

So you would rather have a Democrat as president? How in the world will Democrats controlling government for the next eight to twelve years and appointing the next several rounds of federal and supreme court judges going to help advance our cause? Looks to me like that's a sure fire formula for setting us back by about 40 years.

Is there no other way to advance our cause other than surrendering to decades of pure hell?
