It is very sad to see Republicans self-destruct. The papers are full of stories about Republicans who hate Bush, who don't approve of the war, who think he's too liberal, etc., etc., ad nauseum. Everyone bend over and smile because you are all about to get it from Kerry this November.

Buckley's self-indulgent and self-centered pronouncements are self-agrandizing at the expense of the country. Not at all helpful. He's a narcissistic, self-important pedagogue who values his own fame more than the future of our nation.

Yeah, I'm not happy with 100% of what Bush has done, but if we let Kerry get in, and appoint more Supreme Court justices, we'll be in deep trouble. So if I don't like all of what Bush is doing, I keep it to myself in an election year.

What, did you all wake up one day and say "Hey, I got a good idea! Lets trash the president during a war, in an election year, because he's too liberal or we are antiwar, so we won't support him and maybe even not vote and feel so good when ultraliberal Kerry walks away with the election??"

If you're against the war or don't think we should have done it, fine - but if you want to trade George for Kerry and the Heinz woman (to be followed by Hillary), then just keep up the self-destructive blather about how wrong it was to liberate the Iraqis. Otherwise you'd be well advised to tone it down and learn some pragmatism.

Either we all hang together or we'll all be taxed to death separately.

Republicans who hate Bush, who don't approve of the war,

Hold it. I'm 1) a Republican 2) who disapproves of the Iraq invasion 3) but don't "hate Bush" and will definitely vote for his reelection. Taxes, judges, pro-life are the issues for me. It's hand's down for Bush on those issues. My worry is that his bonehead Iraq policy will get him voted out - - - and we'll all lose with a liberal Democrat in the White House.
