This article is a liberal's prospective on conservative thoughts about Bush; almost right though.

This article is pretty accurate as far as I can tell.

If it does it is because pseudo Conservative like a handful of "Freepers" spend 100% of their time acting as "Virtual Campaigners" for the DNC. This is a thread is an excellent example.

The Saddam docs are all over Freeper. Do any of the Whine All the Time choir even look at those threads? NO instead they post the 10,000th hissy fit whine at Bush to help in an unwitting, or knowing, attempt to spread DNC propaganda.

So either they are political fools, or they are KNOWINGLY acting on behalf of the Democrat Party's 2006 campaign. So which is it? Fools or Traitors?

"Conservatives might someday buy Jeb..."

I think the whole "conspiracy theory in this article is right out of Bellevue Hospital. But let me say this, Jeb Bush's political ambitions were ended this week. Along with his son's.

Bush tried to sneak a liberal, Harriet Myers, onto the Supreme Court. No other evidence is necessary to prove that Bush is a closet New England liberal.

While I realize this piece is not the Gettysburg Address, and the world will indeed not long remember it --- I take exception to using Harriet Miers' name in this fashion. She wasn't your idea or mine of a Sup Ct nominee, but she took a bullet for her boss in the process, and she took it in time to spare him, herself and all of us a good measure of unpleasantness. Not to mention that she has been an able lawyer and a loyal friend to the President. You want to call him a lame duck, or worse, go ahead and make your case; but she doesn't deserve to see her name used to cut her President down.

Did anyone even notice that the Democrats wanted all Reopublican House bill enforcement mechanisms kept out of the Senate bill? When Republican couldn't get those in the Senate bill, they just killed it.

If you want the 2009 full Amnesty will voting rights to all Illegals the next day bill, then by all means keep pushing this DNC "Virtual Campaigner" garbage about "no difference between Repbs and Demos"

I didn't mind Harriet Miers, I don't have any problem with green energy, and I don't mind drilling for oil.

I'm a conservative....that means that I look to preserve valuable practices, beliefs, processes, items, etc.

It also means that I'll accept new practices, beliefs, processes, items, etc., that are also demonstrated to be positive.

I didn't know Corsi was a lib. Except for the excellent judicial nominees and WOT the President's domestic agenga has been liberal.

The problem is that all Republicans, upon becoming President, become more liberal. Does anyone believe that President McCain or President Frist would be in favor of a strict immigration bill? Even Reagan signed an amnesty.

Like most too good to be true stories, "green fuels" are a starting point, not a silver bullet.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol_fuel#Net_fuel_energy_balance

Net fuel energy balance

For ethanol to contribute significantly to transportation fuel needs, it would need to have a positive net energy balance. To evaluate the net energy of ethanol four variables must be considered: the amount of energy contained in the final ethanol product, the amount of energy directly consumed to make the ethanol (such as the diesel used in tractors), the quality of the resulting ethanol compared to the quality of refined gasoline and the energy indirectly consumed (in order to make the ethanol processing plant, etc). Although a topic of debate, some research that ignores energy quality suggests it takes as much or more fossil fuel energy (in the forms of diesel, natural gas and coal) to create an equivalent amount of energy in the form of ethanol. In other words, the energy needed to run the tractors, produce the fertilizer, process the ethanol, and the energy associated with the wear and tear on all of the equipment used in the process (known as fixed asset depreciation to economists) may be more than the energy derived from burning ethanol.

The Harriet Miers Nomination was made on October 3, 2005. That was over EIGHT MONTHS after the inaugeration. Eight months is not at all like THREE MONTHS.

If you can't even get simply facts correct, it's hard to take the rest seriously.

Miers wasn't liberal. She was unqualified.

What makes you think the author is a liberal? That he helped get the swiftboat vets' story out suggests the opposite, and if Online Human Events has any connection to Human Events the newspaper, he can't be a liberal.

It may be a while before we understand all the machinations behind the immigration story becoming so big just now, but it looks like a coordinated strategy between the Democrats, the media, and left-wing organizations. At this point it looks like the outcome may be amnesty, millions of more reliable Democrat voters, a deeply divided Republican Party, and new ammunition for the media to use against conservatives. The only hope is that the average American doesn't docilely accept what he's being told by the politicians, the religious leaders, and the media, and actually sorts things out for himself.

Right now, the 2006 midterm congressional elections are shaping up to be a major Republican Party setback.

Well, we'll see, won't we.

Isn't Corsi the loudmouth who made a fool of himself on FR?

Someone should remind Karl Rove that conservatives like to drill for oil.

Baloney. This conservative likes to have reasonably priced energy available, not just for myself, but for my children, grandchildren and so forth, and I don't care if it's from drilled oil. Drill in ANWR, build more nuke power generators, undo Slick's EO creating Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, develop fuel cells, but don't forget he's president of USA, not Russia, Iran, etc. Not possible to go balls to the wall just drilling oil.

ideas_over_party Since Apr 1, 2006

I'm sorry you can quit wasting our time DUer. You have exposed yourself from day one as a DNC mouthpiece. Anyone stupid enough to argue "ideas over party" as anything but a recipe for complete political irrelevance is either working for the other side or a wholly ignorant of political realities in a Constitutional Republic.

There are not enough people who agree 100% with your ideas to elect a dog catcher. You have to compromise on some things to build a party that can win. The only way to get anything done in life is via compromise. It is utterly childish to demand ONLY 100% of what YOU personally want in politics.

Adults understand this reality, children throw temper tantrums to avoid dealing with it. By spending all your time here advocating the Right commit political suicide, you are either knowingly, or unintentionally, acting as a DNC "Virtual Campaigner" so which is it? Ideological fool or Ideological traitor?

Be refreshing change if there was some standing to reason among the Freeper Fringers for a change

The nomination of John Bolton alone is enough to make me applaud President Bush.

I love Bolton and what he's doing in the UN.

(I also love that we are not under Kyoto or the World Court, also thanks to the President.)
