I think you are forgetting the fact that a lot of people who voted for Bush are dissatisfied. If 1% of the people who voted for Bush wouldn't vote for him again, then we will have another Bush 10 years from now trying to finish daddy/uncle's unfinished job.

Define "a lot'. I see about 100 posters on this site that either are "former" supporters" OR the never voted for in the first place, OR DU plants. I think you are over estimating the level of "lost support".

It gives the kiddies a place to throw their tantrums. I guess it serves a purpose. LOL

While you are listing GW's many "failures" you could add that he dissolved the obsolete ABM treaty without harming our relations with Russia.

Not a bad piece of work. Especially since, as with Kyoto, all the einsteins of the media were shrieking in horror.

GWB killed the Kyoto Treaty on Global Warming.

GWB pulled the U.S. out of the CCCP-U.S. ABM Treaty.

GWB backed and got our National Missile Defense program funded.

GWB Killed the International Criminal Court.

GWB repealed Clinton's CO2 rules that were choking off electricity production in California and causing electricity rates to spike.

GWB repealed OSHA's new ergonomic regulations that were about to put every home-based business in America out of commission.

GWB appointed Ashcroft and Ted Olsen, who just wrote to the Supreme Court that the 2nd Amendment is an INDIVIDUAL right, not the "collective right" that liberals have maintained for decades.

GWB signed the bill into law that gives pilots the right to arm themselves with firearms, a pleasant pro-gun victory on a national level.

GWB killed the Left-Wing ABA's role in vetting federal judges for Congress.

GWB instituted the first top-down review of our military in years, which concluded (prior to 9/11), that asymetric attacks were our biggest future threat.

GWB killed the $11 Billion Crusader artillery boondoggle.

GWB killed federal funding of foreign "family planning" activities.

GWB ordered the Justive Department to finally enforce the SCOTUS Beck decision, giving union workers the right to recover any of their union dues that are used for political purposes with which they disagree.

Frankly, if you aren't aware of all that GWB has done to advance the Conservative movement (including implementing steel tarrifs in order to encourage European nationalism via trade wars), then you simply aren't Conservative.

But hey, you didn't want to be a "downer" and you only posted this rubbish-for-an-article on this thread (oh, did I mention that GWB got taxes cut twice, once for individuals and another for businesses).

Look more closely. The ring and pinky fingers have obviously been edited out. The fill where there was an index finger was done a little better.

Well, there you have it. I guess growing up into a full adult includes accepting the limits of reality. I'm glad Reagan did. And I'm glad Bush is.

I understand that '64 was looking pretty good for Goldwater, 12 months before the election.

Before the election, people like George Will and others supported Bush. He no longer does. Just take the trend here. At first, only a handful criticized him. Now the list only keeps on growing. The worst(or better) thing is, we have more than two more years to get an anti-Bush thing going so he loses in 04. I think anti-Bushes will succeed.

Perhaps you should tell Will. It seems he doesn't know it yet.

The Bush presidency totally rocks. No one should be hesitating about it. The man has conviction. Join us.

Then it will be lucky you! You will have your Gore or your Hillary as President and you can get free stuff from the government and just hang around and play with yourself all day long. Lucky you!

Re: your post #29.
Great, great post.
If it's not asking too much, if you give that post its own thread, I will bump it for a week.

Regards,
LH

Thanks, but no thanks. Giving that post its own thread would bring the nutcases out in droves, and they would spout such horrendous anti-GWB lies that it would take painstaking effort to go point by point debunking each claim (and they wouldn't even care, they'd toss out new lies as soon as their old ones were exposed).

Two steps forward and one step back is progress.

I keep seeing only the one step backwards. Repeatedly.

Call me when you see them take two steps forward.
