This is an unofficial quick and dirty presidential poll. Apparently, there is a good sized contingent on Free Republic that believes that President Bush is:
Please list the numbers that best match the reasons you don't like Bush (or state other reasons if not on the list) and state whether you believe that President Bush should be defeated even if it means installing a Democrat in the Whitehouse.
Conversely, if you believe President Bush should be re-elected, please state why.
Please state who you would like to see win the Presidency in 2004 and whether or not you believe he/she has a chance of winning.
Thanks,
Jim
Although for the the record, he's a heck of a lot better than Algore would have been.
Only one, Jeb Bush.
For the same reason that you spray Wasp and Ant killer outside your house but you are a bit more circumspect with the DDT inside your house.
Beg to differ here, the President does not kill terrorists, he sends brave and worthy men into the hell holes of the world to kill terrorists. These brave and worthy men are the ones who, in some of the most hostile areas of the world, carry out the directives of Bush. (Meanwhile, the President "just tries to stay out of harms way".)
Flame away.
No, I didn't but who has more name recognition and, more importantly, money to defeat the President, Ron Paul or Jeb Bush?
It will never happen, but I think it would be a fascinating to watch the siblings go at each others throats.
Jim, it is well known that I am a supporter of President Bush. I wish he had vetoed the CFR, but I understand his strategy in not doing so. I also think the education bill, unless we can get vouchers implemented, will not be successful.
We have gotten a tax cut, increased military spending and military morale, a President who actually makes war on terrorists, one who is doing something to clean up the corporate abuses (unlike the last administration), an honorable and decent guy who is doing the best he can with a bad hand dealt to him.
I will support him for re-election, with every resource I have.
Thank you for this thread.
Would you be interested in me running a Free Republic opinion poll?
I know you have the poll question of the every-month-or-so, but I am talking about getting a representative sample of Freepers with 20 or so questions.
What do you think?
Thats funny, thats exactly the tact Clinton took with terrorists.
If I have a problem with George W. Bush, these would pretty well sum it up. That being said....
It's very nice to have someone there who seems to be restoring honor, dignity, and honesty to the office of the Presidency.
I DO think GWB will appoint conservative judges; whether or not they can be approved by the Senate remains to be seen.
Unfortunately, I don't think the country as a whole is prepared to elect a "real" conservative. Look at what most of us are sending to Congress. Not to mention, most Americans seem to want the government to intervene in all sorts of areas that aren't really constitutional....
I'll be voting for Bush again. If he replaces Dick Cheney on the ticket in 2004, I'd kind of like to see Condi Rice there.
Under no circumstances do I want to ever see a democrat in office again, but I am finding it harder and harder to support a man who gives all appearance to not stand up for the values I believe in, and that this country was founded on.
I cannot vote for him again with good conscience. I MIGHT hold my nose and do it again, but only if it is a tough race to keep out a democrat who might have a chance (through an election being stolen again.,..)
While I'm not totally happy with everything GW has done I'll vote for him again, yes sir!
I have a greater problem with the Republican Party in general. I've been particularly po'd at the leadership here in Virginia in the last few months.
I'll still vote GOP, and in the end, I'm sure I'll be working for Bush in 2004. I'm not excited about our congress critter race. It's Eric Cantor against Cooter (Ben Jones from the Dukes of Hazzard). We're in the most Republican district in the state, so Cantor shouldn't have a problem. And my Senator is John Warner who is running unopposed.
I guess where I am is that I'm not exactly thrilled with everything the President has done and I'm certainly annoyed with the party. But there's no viable alternative and the main thing is to get control out of the hands of the RATS.
