My, you do jump to absurd conclusions.

Rush laughs at so-called 'independents' all the time as those who are afraid to take a stand.

Having convictions is a FAR cry from your silly Kool-aid label and party line nonsense.

As I have previously said on this thread, if you have 100 Republicans, you most likely have 100 perspectives on politics. Being affiliated with one party or the other does not preclude independent thought, and it is absurd for you to say so.

I am more conservative than most Republicans, but that doesn't mean that I'm not a Republican. No 'party hack' speaks for me, but overall, the Republican candidate more closely represents what I believe (i.e. lower taxes, pro-life, strong military, etc.).

I may not be in agreement with Rush that all independents' minds are full of mush, but I SURE don't agree with you, that you are somehow superior to those of who identify ourselves as Republicans.

I'm glad that the Independents were smart and voted for President Bush, but that doesn't mean that I have to respect their inability to have strong convictions, and stand up for them.

I have made my point, and you yours. You will never convince me that Bush is a Conservative nor will I convince you that he is not. We will see just how much wood Bush adds to the fire in 2005. Keeping Mineta(the subject of this thread) is a big mistake. I don't pretend to know what goes on behind the lines I can only go by what I know.

Bush signed CFR thinking that the Supremes would overturn it, sheer idiocy in my book. So I have absolutely zero faith that he knows what he is doing with Mineta. But we shall see.
