I'm starting to believe that the Dims are fully aware of how weak they will be in '04, and have now focused on California to work their evil.

I say that the Dims hate him for the same reason that Pubbies hated FDR! He is a traitor to his class, in the president situation the Liberal Establishment. No one expect much of FDR when he became president, but he picked up the ball and ran with it.

That something is the unhinging of the Democratic Party. Democrats are seized with a loathing for President Bush a contempt and disdain giving way to a hatred that is near pathological unlike any since they had Richard Nixon to kick around.I disagree. Nixon gave people on both sides of the aisle plenty of concrete reasons to build up an unprecedented level of disgust towards him over time. Bush is simply hated because he exists, and only by the RATS. He beat the Dems' attempt to steal the 2000 election, and for that Crime Against The Democratic Party, he must be crushed. It is not anything like the anger towards Nixon. It is also not "near pathological." It IS pathological.

So when he leaves his neighborhood to go to a "Take Back America" rally... Let's just hope the drunk took a cab instead of committing another DUI offense.

The Democrats sold their souls and their ability to reason to stand by Clinton. Like the Bolsheviks, the cause has overshadowed every thing, including humanity and morality.

Democrats are seized with a loathing for President Bush a contempt and disdain giving way to a hatred that is near pathological ... Almost like the pathological hatred many conservatives had for Bill Clinton ...

There is something else here, though. Not only is Bush "accidental" and not only is he incredibly powerful in the way he has reshaped international policy and revitalized the GOP, but . . . .
he is a CHRISTIAN, one who actually believes what his faith tells him, and this is the absolute worst thing in the world to a liberal. If you saw that HBO movie "DC-9/11," that really captured it. A committed Christian knows there is evil in the world and that it must be confronted.
And one more thing: the very existence of committed Christians in the presence of others is unnerving to no-believers because it exposes their sinful lifestyle and makes them uncomfortable in their sin.
And the Christian doesn't have to say anything or even really DO anything, but his or her existence threatens libs.

The sleazy, dishonesty, grasping, neocommunist, humorless democrats hate an honest man.
To those who hate America and wish to destroy America, only people who can be manipulated, like Willie, are acceptable. Those who draw a line in the sand and will not be moved, are the enemy.
And, President Bush makes a good focus for their frustrations All America haters refuse to address issues logically and factually. Their tactic is to focus of the person who personifies the opposition and demonize him. This is hard to do with Bush because he is what he is.
The frustration also comes from their near victory. Willie was a true America hater, turned and trained by the commies; the ultimate mole. Willie's support was pretty much destroyed by the Gipper and he lost his motivation and opted for booze, broads, power games, and drugs.
Examples can be found almost every week on Leno and Letterman. The jokes where Bush is the target deal with his pronunciation or flight suit; the jokes about Willie (yes, still!) are barbed and deal with his dishonesty, infidelity, or Monica.
All that the neocommunists have is to hate and demonize Bush.
Frustration, of course, also comes from the fact that it certainly looks like Bush will continue to win and the America haters will continue to Frenchify.

I'm convinced this recent version of Democratic fascists would have crucified Jesus Christ Himself
twice and hung him upside down had they the chance 2003 years ago.
They are clearly and viciously waging as much a war as they can today through the media and the subversion of the courts -- Civil War II isn't out of realm within the next 20-25 years IMO.
To: IronJack
Not true.
Not one of the people I asked why that they hatd President Bush could give me a reason.
I can give you reasons why I hate bill and hillary clinton.

Almost like the pathological hatred many conservatives had for Bill Clinton ... The hysterical reaction of many conservatives to Bill Clinton probably set their cause back, somewhat. Without the opposition baying at the moon and demanding Bill Clinton's head on a pike, the middle of the country may well have turned against him, based on his numerous scandals, sex being the least of them.
Unfortunately, Bill Clinton was able to use his opposition's rabid nature to his own advantage, successfully playing the wounded party, victimized by the attack dogs of the right.

I hope the hate that the Dimocraps feel for President Bush does to them what hate does to all who harbor it.

"I say that the Dims hate him for the same reason that Pubbies hated FDR! He is a traitor to his class, in the president situation the Liberal Establishment."Plain and simple?
The Dems hate Dubya because he promotes and abides in and respects the authority of the Lord, individual responsibility, and national sovereignty -- rather than secular humanism, One-Worldism, and moral relativism....
To: Britton J Wingfield
Figuratively he ran with it, but the image I have is him in a high speed wheel chair blowing past all the defenders. Say what you will about FDR he had guts.
