Conservatives not satisfied with Bush's record

While morally there is a world of difference between Clinton and Bush, politically they're exactly the same. But then I fully expected this - Bush Jr. is very much like his papa and is more bent on establishing globalist rule than he is protecting and defending the Constitution.

You realize, of course, that criticizing Bush is divisive and divisive is bad... Nevermind the validity of the criticism.

Criticizing Bush is a vote for Hillary or Gore in 2004.

I'll remember that while I'm at work today - someone has to pay for his harebrained schemes.

I'm not too happy with Dubya and I don't believe in giving Republicans a free ride.

"The White House strategy toward conservatives is to treat us as a special-interest group, like blacks, Latinos and women," said Stephen Moore, president of the Club for Growth. "That's a problem, because we're not just another interest group but the very base of the Republican Party."

That's good. Voting Libertarian is the best way to reform the Republican party.

The basic problem is that Bush is a coward. He is not willing to fight for anything. He caves at the first sign of pressure.

Bush Jr. is very much like his papa and is more bent on establishing globalist rule than he is protecting and defending the Constitution.

What a short memory you have, I guess pulling out the global court will accelerate globalism.

Of course your problem may not be a short memory but a small brain.

alienate rank-and-file conservative activists

We hear a lot from some people here how Bush must move to the middle to get re-elected and that politicians only do what the people want.

There is some validity in that, but it overlooks the need to maintain the loyalty of the 'hard-core'. I think more and more conservatives will just sit the next one out if things continue in this same direction (unless the opponent is Hillary! which would get us out no matter what).

I do not think that a few 'culturally conservative' jestures will be enough to get a lot of people back with interest.

HOW CONSERVATIVE IS PRESIDENT BUSH?

Compassionate Conservatism Means Big Government

No To 'Compassionate Conservatism'
"Marvin Olasky, the former Marxist journalism professor who coined the term. But he and George W. Bush are barking up the wrong tree if they think "compassionate conservatism" is going to rally popular support necessary to effect the real change needed to turn this country around."

Great links. Thanks!

BTTT

dear god, why are people allowed to copy-and-paste post huge pages of links with massive text into every other thread? i've seen multiple threads with all those links. give it a rest, would you?

Kind of like donation time for FR eh?

Even Mr. Tancredo acknowledges that the strategy of pragmatic compromise will "win Bush a bigger share of the vote in 2004."

Yeah, well if he gets any smaller share of the vote than last time he's a goner. Watch him, Tom. "But he can win and still push the conservative agenda. We don't have to win at any price. We can win at a smaller price."

It's more likely that he can win only by pushing the conservative agenda. If he doesn't get cracking, him and Congress too, the fall elections are going to finish the GOP in Congress. Bush has been caving in and calling it winning. That only fools a handful of koolaid drinkers who want to be fooled.

Dear God, why are Bush lovers allowed to whine like howler monkeys because a few copy and paste jobs of well-researched links smash the myth of their hero?

Criticizing Bush is a vote for Hillary or Gore in 2004.

It looks more to me like "a vote for Bush is a vote for Hillary and Gore". Vote for Bush, get Kennedy's wish list for education enacted as law in the interest of "bipartisanship".

>You realize, of course, that criticizing Bush is divisive and divisive is bad... Nevermind the validity of the criticism.

The Lord Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha Mashiach) said:

Lu 12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division.

- and -

Re 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

>Criticizing Bush is a vote for Hillary or Gore in 2004.

Voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil. The way things are going, there may not be another election. It is better to hold to truth and let the chips fall where they may.

You don't have to read the thread, you know. Go to the Daily W Swoonfest and drool over photos. That's probably more your speed.

I'm not too happy with Dubya and I don't believe in giving Republicans a free ride.

Well said! Bush has probably already lost the conservative base, and will express astonishment at the Democrat gains in November.
