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
I just drove to the corner of Wilcest and US59 (Houston) to take a picture of a sign that had been posted by the local merchants. The sign wasnt there; I asked the closest proprietor what happened to it. He informed me that, The Mexicans stole the sign and partially knocked down the pole.
The sign said that the merchants parking lot was not a rally point for illegal aliens to return to Mexico or to meet upon their arrival. The sign referenced local statues and codes that I cannot remember ergo the attempt to photograph the sign.
This sign should have been unnecessary, and would be if the INS was doing their job.
Finally, I am so sick of PC crap. These people were born in Mexico. They are Mexicans. They are NOT Hispanic or Chicano they are Mexicans. I have been to Mexico and they call themselves Mexicans just like we call ourselves Americans. The folks in Mexico do not consider this a derogatory term. The poser, wannabes here in America are the ones who do not like the term.
I am not a racist. I am a realist that has lived with the invasion and a previous post is correct that many do not want to be American. They want to live in North Mexico.
Typical.. They just cover their ears and scream "Shut UP! Shut UP!
We can argue forever about why GWB is using such poor strategy and whether or not it is deliberate on his part. But it is absolutely inarguable that he is playing it poorly.
Are you insane?
Why thank you for the not so warm welcome. I think. Is my opinion invalid because I registered today?
You did not comment on what I said. Do you disagree with me? I would be interested in any critique you have concerning my comments
Via con Dios.
2. Not pro-life Buffalo Dung, He is the most "Pro Life" President since Roe-v-Wade became law
3. Is a gun-grabber Horse Hockey
4. Is a federal power-grabber His proposals have been for states rights
5. Will appoint liberal judges When Pigs fly
6. Is a globalist Just more slander from the Nattering Nabobs
7. Is in it just for oil Leftist Drivel
8. Is too soft on immigration So far he is the first President in my life to propose and enact restrictions, and yet nobody gives him credit. The all or nothing crowd wants him "necklaced" for "supposedly" thinking of amnesty (A NYT's divide and Conquer plot)
9 Is too soft (or too hard) on Israel As Israel has stated! they almost made him an honorary member of the Lachoud(sp)? Party because of his Moral clarity on his willingness to tell it like it is on the Palestinian situation
10. Is a crook Probably the most trustworthy President in decades
11. All of the above Place the crackpipe on the desk and slowly back away from the keyboard
12. None of the above He needs improvement on #8 but he inherited the mess
13. Other (you name it) Back in December of 2000, this country almost become a Bananna Republic when Al (count-em-again) Gore attempted to steal the presidential election, with the help of his Lawyers and his eneblers in the Press. With the country divided as it was just 18 moths ago. I think we have witnessed the most rapid and dramatic change in public opinion of a President in our nations history.
When George W. Bush took the oath of office, not too many people thought he would be much, they said he could forget about his "Huge" tax cut, they said he wouldn't be respected on the world stage, they said he wouldn't be able to get us out of the ABM treaty without another arms race with Russia. They said he didn't have much of a personality and of coarse they told us how stupid he was. Not only has he been "misunderestimated" but he has outsmarted them at every turn. In a short 17 months he has done more to change the direction of this country than Reagan did his first 5 years. Not to mention he's one helluvagood wartime President.
I will now slip into my Nomex Jammies for the scorching I'm gonna recieve from the unnapeasables and malcontents :-)
C'mon IN!!! Tooth, this isn't a moral dilemma ... it's a political reality. They're here. They're staying as long as they can eat, breathe, pray and guard their family. So, folks in the INS queue .... expidited approval is my order. If there is lingering resentment ... life is a bitch sometimes and tell it to gals on "The View'.
Surely you're not arguing the lack of a solution indicates no problem?
Other solution approaches have been proposed, assuming a large part of the problem is party leadership, rather than oval office.
Fair enough. Post what you feel is a serious solution proposal and we can discuss it. Make sure you flag the poster that put it forward. Thanks.
I can pick and choose between working for Republicans, or on Texas textbook issues, property rights, and gun rights.
Electing Republicans in November does not even make the cut.....they have abandoned their Conservative base...even though my spouse and I made over 800 phone bank calls in Florida during the first week of November 2000.
Live and learn.....
