I think each of us is capable of determining what our minds look at. When I see enough to make me turn against Bush, I will do so. Why are you afraid of us looking at the good things?
One thing I think is great is his stand about foreign aid being in the control of Americans rather than the U.N. This is a powerful move IMHO. Without others determining where our money goes, we will be able to put the money into countries that do not further hate for America and that are moving toward freedom rather than paying into the coffers of the dictators and terrorist training camps.
This is a far-reaching move if it comes to pass.
I don't chose to turn against my president because he doesn't do all I want done. I may get upset, I may loudly speak my mind and try and change his, but I have to look at the whole picture because I will never find a president that does all I want done when I want it done.The mere fact of having a man of his moral fiber, his faith and values, his love of this country and the character traits I see in him make me appreciate him as my president. In addition, I have approved of so much that he has done in this first year, why would I stop supporting him now.
This CFR issue will be handled by the Supreme Court and no harm will be done. I feel sure Bush knew that and he has defused the primary issue the democrats would have used - that he is against campaign reform - his presidency was contested and determined by the Supreme Court and he is in the pockets of big business. Now they have nothing.
We have to get control of the Senate or nothing will be done that we want done. No judges will be confirmed, no conservative supreme court justices - nothing.
Lighten up. I'm disappointed too - but we still have a good man there and I think that God put him there for this time. I will just pray that Bush stays true to God's purpose whatever that is.
I am actively doing as much as any individual in the country towards those very ends.
The irony is that the means I am using...legal means, well within the framework of the First Amendment...will be made illegal after November 5th by this new law.
I have no interest in being a test case, but if necessary, I will.
Do you get it?
