The Bush apologists are advocating politicians doing bad things to buy votes, to guarantee re-election. Re-election over the good of the country. The politician's interests over the country's.
'Smart' politics. Just like the Ds do. Exactly what we've criticized the Ds for all these years.
In their minds, a Bush re-election is the goal, with 'doing the right thing' as a definite after-thought. And they insult the people wanting their elected officials to do the job we elected them to do.
The goal is to win the War on Terror.Bush is the man to do it, so is his team, and NO ONE else so far has the brains, or plan to do just that.Yup, good idea to change horses for someone who may not grasp the peril as well, but sure will keep the 0.5% happy at all costs.
