How pithy. Too bad the effect is ruined by it's dishonesty. As I said, the knee-jerk goes both ways.
You (and like-minded Freepers) criticize President Bush for every perceived deviation from your orthodoxy and what you have determined he should do or say. Fine. Just admit the bias and stop attempting to play the objective, truth-seeking impartial observer. That pose is a farce and an insult to our intelligence. Drop it.
The difference here is that I'll agree that President Bush made some mistakes (i.e. CFR) but I maintain that he's a good man doing a good job and as conservative a president as we're ever going to see in our lifetime. You won't, or not without a dozen caveats to add. Then the protestations of innocence start; i.e. "I've voted Republican for fifty years but this Bush guy is too much for me to take..." blah, blah blah. Yeah, right.
It's either just a fraud or sore losers who never liked Bush from the git-go, never wanted him in the White House and will not support him under any conditions but use the fig leaf of 'honest, impartial observation' to blast the man at every perceived opportunity. That's your right but drop the dishonesty of being objective. I'm pro-Bush and say so upfront (check my profile page). Unlike others, I didn't expect God or Pat Buchanan or Alan Keyes to be President, I voted for a compromising politician with core moral values and a conservative bent.
President Bush has done plenty I approve of (including a tax cut) and he's able to get things accomplished that the ultra-rights' heros never dreamed of. Republicans will regain the senate and increase the house majority this fall and President Bush will be (most of) the reason. With that majority he'll be able to appoint federal judges and accomplish a lot more for conservatives, but you'll probably still complain. So be it. Have at it then but be honest enough to state your bias upfront. Thus said the pot to the kettle.
You've just surpassed hyperbole with an outright lie. Answering specific criticism with sweeping generalization demonizing the critic is a tactic that certain overzealous Republicans have copied from overzealous democrats. It's embarassing.
