fyi

[patriciaruth]

Twelve. None of the above.

[Texasforever]

I was about to go outside and drink some Houston air but I can't leave this one.

Ooooh man! You've released a Pandora's Box in here! I like Bush for the most part, even though I voted for Keyes in the Delaware primary. I also take issue with several of his stands, most notably the stem-cell reseach decision, CFR, and support for a Palestinian state. But I can't complain too much, since he is WAY better than Gore would have been. People need to think back about how Gore would have reacted to the terrorists attacks on September 11th. Things would have been A LOT worse if he had to make the big shots.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Only #8 for me.

But still Bush in 2004!

[MinorityRepublican]

Well, President Bush is my guy. I'm proud of him and I admire him. But he is a natural conservative in a way in that he does not want to rock the boat. I want him to become revolutionary and do things such as getting the US out of the UN, deporting illegals out of America since they are law-breakers, and to start cutting some domestic programs. That's only the start. Even if he does not do any of those things, I will still vote for President Bush. He's still heck a lot better than any Democrat could ever be, so I guess he's not so bad.

[ppaul]

Brave, you are.

[Texas_Jarhead]

1,4,5,6,8
13 - still a cut above 42 (or Gal Bore for that matter)

[f.Christian]

RR2...just holding back with the big-BIG guns---ending!

[ffrancone]

Let's see. I think George Bush should be defeated because America would be a better place if Al Gore or Tom Daschle were President. /Heavy Sarcasm Alert

No he's not nearly so conservative as I am. He probably wants to grab some guns that I would not grab. etc etc etc.

But for real conservatives, its a complete no-brainer. Just imagine the alternative.

13: Not instilling confidence in Wall St or investors. Maybe it's selfish but I don't want to be poor. Part 2, why does it have to be a Democrat? Jesse Ventura got elected on an Independent ticket.

[FreeLibertarian]

4,7,9,& 10. He should be defeated.

[PRND21]

Go Pat Go?

[WHATNEXT?]

#8 is a big one for me and I'll add a #13 - too much money into government programs new and old.

[MissAmericanPie]

I'll pick number 11 and 13 for caving on the UN criminal court, putting immigrants back on welfare, and CFR.

[RLK]

The man I supported for president and did a write-in vote for was Alan Keyes. I thought he was the only intelligent adult on the scene. He also had a grasp of constitutional history.

My quarrels with Bush:

1) I see him as shallow and unintelligent.

2) He didn't prepare himself for the presidency and is making it up as he goes along. He's coasting through life and the presidency.

3) He lacks ideological thoroughness and commitment.

4) He seems in agreement with Fox on what will for practical purposes turn iut to be a Mexican conquest of the Southwestern United States financed by our welfare system.

5) Bush lacks a thorough grasp of economics and particularly the movement of principle industries to China.

6) He's let the Clintons of the hook, even to the point of providing Hillary with free well-connected top government lawyers to defend her against well-deserved criminal charges.

I could go on for 10 pages and have, elsewhere.

I honestly believe Bush is pleasant, but dangerous.

[Sabertooth]

1. Not conservative enough Yes, otherwise all of the other answers would be "no."
3. Is a gun-grabber Undecided.
4. Is a federal power-grabber A tentative yes, though some of this is understandable in wartime.
6. Is a globalist Undecided.
8. Is too soft on immigration Easily, and make that specifically "Illegal Aliens and Arab Moslem non-citizens."
13. Other (you name it) Compassionate conservatism, wants to spend way too much, the prescription drug program (his most foolish promise of the 2000 campaign).

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.

Done, but I haven't said I wish President Bush defeated.

What I have said is that my vote is his to lose, but not his birthright.

Conversely, if you believe President Bush should be re-elected, please state why.

At this point I'd like to see the President re-elected without making the mistake of his father in taking too many votes for granted.

[WHATNEXT?]

Because your title is: Bush Haters - I'll have to add no hate here. Way too strong - I'm disappointed in several areas as stated above.

[brat]

1,6,8,13: CFR, Gov. expansion, big spender, caves into the Dems, UN, Euros and Arabs too much, Yucca Mtn. decision based on fuzzy science.

He should be re-elected because he's better than any Dem.

I have the luxury of voting for anyone I want in the 2004 election. As voting for him will make virtually no difference in Nevada.I'll vote any 3rd.party in protest. It won't be Nadar. It will be a Conservative. They won't win and I havn't a clue who will be running in that election so I can not name names.
