I supported Bush when he was passing the "No Child Left Behind" expansion of the federal education bureaucracy because I understood he was doing it for political reasons. Besides, it was important for Bush to be able to appoint judges.

I supported Bush when he signed the "Campaign Finance Refom" bill, gutting the first amendment, because I understood he was doing it for political reasons. Besides, it was important for Bush to be able to appoint judges.

I supported Bush when he pushed for the greatest expansion of Medicare since it's inception in 1964 because he was doing it for political reasons. Besides, it was important for Bush to be able to appoint judges.

But this tears it for me. I can't support him. As for the judges -- well, it's not like the spinless jerks in the Senate have gotten us any judges anyway.

If the Republicans in the Senate are spineless, they will not have the courage to obstruct the Democrat nominees to the USSC. Your statement leads to that conclusion, if you pursue your plan to elect a Democrat.

I couldn't have said it better myself. Oh, and don't forget his support for the "Assault Weapons" Ban.
