You are correct.
Bush has to fight the Democrats and the MSM.
Wonderful accounting.
The truth will out.
The dispicable behavior of the Democrat party will ultimately reveal their hand-in-glove relationship with America's enemies.
Speak memory. What is the term for consorting with the enemy?
This is NOT correct. Perhaps the first Republican to win back to back since reconstruction, or the first to win two, four year terms after we moved from two year terms in the early 90's. There were several dim governors with multiple two year terms.
EXCELLENT analysis . . . I will provide a link to this thread on the DOSE tonight.
Great!
A weekend at Hyannis Port?
Great post. I love to see these timelines...I would add news stories like the Condi Rice nomination, Bolton nom, filibuster of court appointees...how many times can the media try to destroy this president?
You forgot about Gitmo, Padilla and the bombings in both Spain and London that were also Bush's fault.
Great stuff! thanks for the strong effort.
In spite of how I would really like to smack Bill O'Reilly upside the head sometimes...he just tore into the MSM for the treatment of the president...for BOR- it was very good..
2005 Jan-Aug Democrats lecture US that the Iraqi Constitution cannot be drafted by August.
On a related issue, moonbat left-wing friends of mine just berated me for listening to "some far right underground source" when I said Bush requested an evac prior to Blanco ( Blanco and Nagin are of course being used as scapegoats by the evil racist Bush) Someone PLEASE help me find a source outside of here to confirm.
Try here. It is an AP story. When you click the source link it takes you to the Miami Sun Herald.com (iirc) but you need to register.

Thanks for putting together this great timeline in reference to how low GW supposedly is in the left wing polls.
