Is Bush a conservative? Well it depends on what you mean by "is".

I can't even imagine what GW is up to with this one. Affirmative action taken to illogical limits? All with taxpayer money. This is way over the top. Even al gore couldn't have come up with something this close to socialism. All I can say is that the economy must be in much worse shape than we are being told. It's the only expanation for all this crazy government spending.

There is no excuse for this latest suprise from the Administration.

None.

It's not Conservative and, in fact it's discriminatory which is the polar opposite of Conservative.

Dubya is either trying to flat, outright buy the senate or he's a liberal puke disguised as an angel of light.

"Compassionate Conservatism" = "Socialism"

Any day now, the Democrats and the Republicans will announce a merger of their two parties. They will cite "synergy" and "economies of scale" and promise to henceforth work together to create a New Big Government Paradise on Earth where upperclass elites and nonwhites can live happily ever after (everything paid for by the white middle class).

The program is for low income people. Race or ethnicity is not an issue.
I do wonder why some people assume that programs for low income people are directed only toward minorities. There are plenty of whites who have low incomes.

[Bullish]

Yup!

It's a nice deal when we thought we were electing a conservative, only to get spit in the eye by another liberal.
