...we've got a year to convince Dubyuh not to follow his daddy's footsteps.That's sounds like a threat to repeat the big screw-up. Get over the stuff; it's counterproductive.

Do you actually believe that Ashcroft dreamed up the USA Patriot Act all by himself?Clueless aren't they? On the one hand, they want the borders closed etc. etc. but on the other hand, that AG went too far with the Patriot Act! Geeze! I am not so sure these are republicans in the first place.

The conservative consideration in regards to the prosecution of the Clintons is in doing so, sure, the two perps would sit in jail, but the whole nation could have become a ruin in the process. President Bush never campaigned on a platform of vengeance and prosecution, hence your hopes were merely manufactured delusions.

I have made money in the terrible Bush market, but not enough to donate more money everytime I read one of these whiners threatening not to vote for GW.
Besides, I think that there is a limit to what an individual can contribute. In a single month of whinings posted on Free Republic, "I will never vote for GW again!" would probably put an individual over the limit if he/she just donated $25 for every such reply.

Hey, didn't somebody at the debates Sunday night say John Edwards wrote the Patriot Act?

Great post! Applause for you!!!Please do not persist in praise, it will simply ruin my reputation! ;-)

We are going to have a trifecta.
My brother lives in Louisiana and he tells me that Jindal will win. He says he is a great campaigner, smart as a whip, and has 15% of the black vote.
You as usual, are exactly right!!
To: Consort
Thank you. Common sense prevails.Not really, I just have no time for those who talk, but fail to understand politics. You take what you can get each time and move on. The American system prevents us from getting everything, every time.
To: Mudboy Slim
Actually, I held my nose and voted fer Dubyuh's daddy in '92 despite Bush, Sr.'s willingness to scorn the RightWing in a fruitless attempt to woo the MidlquetoastModerates...we've got a year to convince Dubyuh not to follow his daddy's footsteps To put things in a historical perspective. In 92 the press was NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, the NYT, and the Wash. Post. There was no Fox News and the Internet was used only by college professors and graduate students for e-mail.
You had Larry King and his "guest" every other night was Perot bashing Bush. Perot after the first time he dropped out of the campaign, got back in because Bush had overtaken Clinton in the polls. Even with that push by the liberal media, Clinton only got 43% of the vote.
92 was the last hurrah for the monopoly of the liberal media and JMO, but it seems that some on FR want to carry on that torch the liberal media had in 92.

Do you actually believe that Ashcroft dreamed up the USA Patriot Act all by himself?No...the legislation was written while Clinton was President and after the first WTC bombing and sat on the shelf untill a politician who could get it passed was in office. Clinton could've never gotten it through Congress. And people on this site would've screamed bloody murder if he'd even tried.

To: ladyinred
The point I was trying to make is that the Executive Branch largely sets the agenda for the Attorney General and Justice Department.
It is sort of difficult to put into words, but In President Bushs case, I think that he believes he put his entire political career on the line to defend America against her enemies, despite harsh criticism and a deteriorating economy. For President Bush, his quest is clear and his cause is just. He is so convinced of his rightness that he is willing to lose an election and face harsh criticism for his actions. But next to his callinghis quest in life, elections, polls, and detractors are simply secondary. Only when one is able to understand that the War on Terror is George W. Bushs quest and why, will one truly understand why the War on Terror is the driving force in his Presidency and why it consumes him.
The USA Patriot Act is an extension of this quest. I think it is definately prudent that the worst provisions in the Patriot Act are sunset limited, but some other parts of serious concern aren't. My biggest concern is that someone with less than holy intentions will abuse the Patriot Act, as Planned Parenthood has chosen to abuse RICO. Even though I believe Bush's intentions were noble, the Patriot Act is simply just bad policy. JMHO

I am far from a one issue voter. I have contributed money and time to President Bush but since he fails to take the issue of "Home Land Security" serious then he is failing on several levels. Without secure borders we have no defense. Voting is no longer reserved for citizens, anyone can vote and vote often, our economic security is being put in danger by his (and yes others including both parties) failure to control immigation.
So if you want to call me a one issue voter feel free but this issue goes well beyond one issue. Health, education, safety, employment and other qaulity of life issues are being effected by his failure to control the borders.
When push comes to shove I will most likely vote for him but I can no longer contribute and will not.

In Kentucky, the Fletcher(R) is up by about 8.
Bobby Jindal(R) is about even with the dim and recently was endorsed by several black organizations. The dim can't win without overwhelming support from the black community.
In Mississippi, Barbour is up a few points and Musgroves negatives are at a point where no incumbent has ever gotten re-elected.
So far, so good.

A conservative. Wish one was running And you can't name a "true conservative".
Oh that's correct only person is the only true blue conservative and his screen name personifies his negative look on life.
Wish to discuss your political viability now, dagnabbit?
