Another idiot from the very tiny and very bitter fringe of the Conservative movement writes a very long and a very meaningless article attacking the Republican party and President Bush.

----Right...does the writer think a Democratic President would have pushed for tax cuts, or an aggressive war on terror? Never!

Conservatism is not libertarianism..small government is not always wise or the best option..as long as individuals have power to pursue their dreams, government can help..that's the essence of Bush's governmental view.

Spoken like a true Socialist liberal!

I suppose that explains why he and fellow Republican leaders continue to allow the abusive IRS progressive tax system to continue in it's present form, almost 5 years into his Presidency, with Republican control of both legislative and the executive branches

...And why the Dept of Education continues to grow, (No Child Left Behind Act, worked out with Teddy Kennedy)
..Why the HHS continues to grow, along with 288 million dollars approved in the current fiscal budget in Title X funding for "family planning" (funding Planned Parenthood) in HR 4818, etc, etc.

Thanks for reminding me why I left the Republican party a month ago.

Thank-you!!!! There seems to be a large faction around here that believe they are the same.

Hark!

Is that the blessed Ron Reagan I hear spinning in his grave?

How far off the conservative path will the Republican party wander before we are gifted with another leader?

It really distresses me that there are freepers that feel this way. This attitude goes directly against the mission statement of Free Republic.

I've pinged some fans of President Bush to this post. I'm curious as to if they agree with your sentiments or not.
