Oh please. The Crusader uses unguided munitions.
The American military is long past needing "new" ways to deliver unguided munitions. That system is an $11 Billion boondoggle that deserves to be killed...

That was unconscionable.
When you make those decisions, generally one has an idea of whether more government or less will have a beneficial effect on the American people. If one is to judge each issue on its own merits, we'd have to expect that person to come down consistently on the same side. In that respect, every decision is based on conservative or liberal ideals. At least that's how I see it.

That is my sticking point with this administration also. I can overlook a good part of his capitulations to the democrats (assuming that a shrewd political plan to "screw the democrats" truly does exists) if Bush takes strong measures to halt the ongoing 3rd world invasion of our country and drops this insane amnesty business.
Out of control immigration is this country's greatest long-term threat to our sovereignty as a nation and the point lost on many is that mistakes in immigration policy are permanent and almost impossible to reverse.
No, you didn't.
Pat Buchanon has publicly called for our embargo against Cuba to be lifted. That's not Conservative.
Castro allowed Palestinian leader Arafat to use the Cuban embassy in Lebanon for the Palestinian base of operations against Isreal in 1982.
Castro sent Cuban tanks and troops to aid Syria's 1973 Yom Kippur surprise attack on Israel.
Cuba trains Palestinians in military explosives and tactics to this very day (much to the horror of Israeli civilians).
In short, Buchanon supports Palestinian terrorists by calling for the lifting of our embargo against their ally, Cuba.
That's who you voted for...
He NEVER said it was a major threat, he said we must take it seriously, but that any actions should be based on sound science and he questioned that science.
From his campaign website (from my files, website no longer exists):
"Recognizes that global warming must be taken seriously but will require any decisions to be based on sound science and a thorough cost-benefit analysis."From Issues 2000:
Scientists are unsure about global warmingQ: What about global warming?
BUSH: It’s an issue that we need to take very seriously. I don’t think we know the solution to global warming yet and I don’t think we’ve got all the facts before we make decisions.
GORE: But I disagree that we don’t know the cause of global warming. I think that we do. It’s pollution, carbon dioxide and other chemicals that are even more potent. Look, the world’s temperatures going up, weather patterns are changing, storms are getting more violent and unpredictable. And what are we going to tell our children?
BUSH: Yeah, I agree. Some of the scientists, I believe, haven’t they been changing their opinion a little bit on global warming? There’s a lot of differing opinions and before we react I think it’s best to have the full accounting, full understanding of what’s taking place.

From Environmental News Network:
Leading Republican candidates are more skeptical about global warming. Texas Governor George W. Bush believes global warming exists but says "both the causes and the impact of this slight warming are uncertain."
Bush's crappy protectionist tariffs pale in comparison to the unholy hell Buchanan would have unleashed on our economy with his idiotic plans.
Once they are here we'll never get rid of them.
It sickens me that there are children growing up in the U.S. that may never bother to learn english because they'll just stay within their own communities.
Post #15 rocks!
I stand corrected!
Tariffs are not good or bad: They are a tactic, a point of leverage, or whatever you want to call it, that can protect certain vulnerable aspects of one's economy.
I think people equate free, no-tariff, trade, with egalitarianism and virtue, and I think that's a little naive.
We need to protect American industry, because it can be destroyed by our heavy taxes and THE LACK OF tariffs.
I believe Bush is in total agreement with Daschle and Gebhardt on foreign issues also.
