Half the Deanbots in this thread have been registered here for five years. Oh well, at least it makes it easy to throw together a list of who the sleeper agents are so they can be ignored for the next year and a half.
Oh, those of us who are critical of anything the president does, are actually secret sleeper Vermont folk, who registered 4-5 years ago, cheered the president on for the first few years, as a ruse, because of our love of Howard Dean. Wow, those of us who aren't fawning cheerleaders are some nefarious folk.
Somebody on another thread said something that is just so true. The Bush sycophants are just the dopplegangers of the Clintonistas. That is why they get continually amazed when people who attacked Clinton when he was wrong, get shocked when they in turn attack Bush when he is wrong.
Unless revelations has happened and I missed it, the President is not the reincarnation of the Lord, and is fair game to criticize when we believe he is wrong.
The fact that we are spending $120 billion minimum total in Iraq, and don't have one dose of Saddam's anthrax to show for it may not bug you, but it bugs me. I guess that means I should go support Howard Dean in your mind. If the president signs the assault weapons ban and the pill program I should break out the pom-poms too I guess. It's all just strategery.
If you don't criticize the president, he doesn't act. If you just put ice on it, you get rolled over. If the base lets the President know by their silent acquiescence that he can shaft them, he will do so. He is a politician. He is a man. He is human. He is better than what the democraps have to offer, but why settle for a 1/4 loaf, when you can fight for 3/4 of what ya want? Not one veto of any bill yet, spending through the roof.
I am a fiscal conservative. Cutting taxes and raising spending is not fiscally prudent. You either cut both, or you don't touch either. I prefer tax cuts and spending cuts. I am not satisfied with half a loaf here.
