Borrowing on the analogy then, a popular conservative president must also watch out for many minefields as he tries steering anyone anywhere these days.
Because if there's one thing Liberals do with perfection each & every time?
That'd be to *help* conservatives to destroy themselves.
...& conservatives blow up quite nicely whenever they move too quickly, y'know.
Howso?! By abandoning Conservatism altogether?
"This Congress is set to hike federal spending by 15 percent over just two years, more than quadruple the inflation rate. Most of this does nothing to fight terrorism. On May 13, Bush signed a $191 billion farm bill that boosts agriculture subsidies by 80 percent. Congress even included $100 million to provide rural consumers "high-speed, high-quality broadband service." The Heritage Foundation estimates that this 10-year bill will cost the average U.S. household $180 in new taxes annually. Bush's education department budget grows from $35.75 billion in 2001 (when he arrived) to a projected $57 billion in 2005. That is a four-year, 59.5 percent increase in federal school outlays."
How is this Conservatism? Are you saying after we pick up 53-55 seats in the Senate and an extra 10 seats in Congress we are gonna drop Federal Education spending from $57 Billion to $40 Billion in 2005? Or decreasing the Farm Bill from $191 Billion to $100 Billion? We're going the wrong direction and I don't see that Dubyuh even recognizes that it's wrong, so what am I being patient for...more of the same?!!
