I see. It's your opinion. Good for you...you're entitled to it. No need to get all bent out of shape. You made a series of nasty remarks about Keyes, and I simply responded.

So can anyone criticize George Bush without being considered all of those things you listed?

God knows someone had better be critical...power without accountability is a very dangerous thing.

In your view, obviously, the rank and file of the GOP should just shut their mouths and take whatever the party hacks in D.C. dish out...even if it is a gross violation of the platform, and of conservative principle.

No one is above criticism...especially the most powerful man in the world. God help us when he is.

Did you read today about the 'leader' of Zimbabwe?---he just passed laws making it illegal to critize him or his office. You can count on the fact that that country will soon be soaked in blood.

The people who harshly attempt to crush criticism of the President think they are doing him a service, when nothing could be further from the truth. These harsh attacks chill debate, and cause much constructive criticism to never see the light of day...until finally, tactical mistakes are made, and our REAL enemies are given the opportunity to politically kill our leadership.

You can accept what I'm saying, or reject it, (as I expect you will)...but that is how the real world works over the long haul.

One more thing. You can dispense with the disingenuous 'God blesses' and such...your tittering little posts with Southflanknorthpawsis concerning this did not set too well with me...they made the fairly nice parting we had last night seem totally phoney on your part...just when I was starting to think you might be a person who could get past the childish game being played by those you have chosen to join yourself to here.

That includes Keyes too, right?
