CATO Institute lambastes President Bush

Good, and the difference between doing that and doing nothing is?

That I will have registered a vote for someone who has actual publicized ideas on how to cut the deficit and unemployment, the two issues which will deny Bush a second term.

And I wouldn't worry overmuch about "fragmenting the vote". I see the Democrats as being more fragmented still. They will probably elect H. Clinton by a plurality, but the Greens and Naderites will suck off a large number of their votes.

I agree with you RJ. There are lots of things Bush has done that I love but we still need to keep pushing for:

School Vouchers making the DOE unnecessary

Privatization of Social Security

Pro-family trumping the homosexual/feminist agenda

Pro-life trumping the abortion/euthanasia genocide

Meritocracy defeating Affirmative/Diversity continuance of racism

American Citizens getting protection from North/South border illegals

...and all this including the WoT with hopefully the Pali terrorists being treated the same as all other terrorists. One thing I try to remember is there are still another half of the voters that vote Democrat and believe all of the above is something to be opposed. But if we can keep pushing and taking small steps towards these things I believe we will prevail. It just takes time and patience.

[jammer]

No, and the point of this is that you probably cannot either.

[jammer]

Adults with character make decisions based upon principle, not the prevailing wind.

Children make decisions upon what they think will allow them to win, and damn the consequences.

[CWOJackson]

You will think differently if you ever become and adult.

[Stew Padasso]

Whats your solution?

[Luis Gonzalez]

"...the two issues which will deny Bush a second term."

So, in effect, and since Stossel cannot possibly win, you're working at electing a Democrat to the White House.

[Luis Gonzalez]

Not only can't you come up with solutions, or even a Pressidential candidate, it seems that you can't even come up with original metaphors.

[Luis Gonzalez]

I have a chance, you haven't even a candidate.

[Luis Gonzalez]

My solution?

Not allowing Democrats to get elected at any level.

What's yours, and Who is your candidate?

[DoughtyOne]

I guess you just asked the question again to allow me to answer it again. That was sweet of you.

[Luis Gonzalez]

By the way, who is your candidate?

Let's discuss his or her accomplishments.

[DoughtyOne]

Still don't understand? Heh heh heh, figured as much.

[Stew Padasso]

Replace the relics in government with representatives who pledge to cut and slash government spending(theft).

So you are satisfied with our current crop of leaders in the RP? They are running the government to your liking?

Do you even see a problem with the spending?

[AmericanVictory]

Wouldn't it make more sense to try and reduce big government at the state level and then use the states where it is done successfully to make the federal government fallow the lead. Why don't we promote the governor of Colorado for the White House?

[Luis Gonzalez]

Problem with the spending?

To see a problem with the spendiong I would have to first believe that our money is worth something beyond the paper that it's printed on.

No, I have no problem with the spending.

Who is your candidate?

[Luis Gonzalez]

hehehe all you want old man.

You stepped in it, got busted, and have been trying to Bill Clinton your way out since.

I'll give you a holler when the Messiah runs for office, I'm sure you won't approve.

[Stew Padasso]

Last time I checked I could take that paper to the store and come away with some goods.

If you don't see a problem with the spending then you are a lost cause and really will never be a part of the solution.

[Reagan Man]

>>>Why don't we promote the governor of Colorado for the White House?

I believe Colorado Governor Bill Owens will be on the GOP ticket in 2008. May be as it's Presidential candidate. I voted for him twice for Governor and would be thrilled to have him run on a national ticket.

[Luis Gonzalez]

If you had even an inkling of the nature of our currency, you wouldn't be talking such nonsense.
