He signed McCain Feingold...we stayed quiet.
He passed the Medicare part D prescription drug benefit, the biggest expansion of the welfare state since the New Deal...we stayed quiet.
He decided to take out Saddam (which Al Gore and Hillary were all in favor of too), and now the only guy who can control these insane islamofascists in Iraq has been hung from the gallows...and we defended him.
