This statement by Lyn Nofzinger is my observations: "Presidents, regardless of party, face constant pressures from the Left -- from the Big Brother government, neofascist, high tax, property-confiscating liberals, from the econazis and global warmists, from the pro-abortionists, from those who are pro-one world and anti-American and from those who advocate cradle-to-grave socialism. (Have I left anyone out?) And, unless there are constant counter-pressures from those on the Right who believe in small government, low taxes, America first and individual liberty, presidents, under Left-wing pressure, tend to drift that way." --Lyn Nofziger We need to cheer when he does right. We need to grumble that it isn't enough. We need to scream when he even hints at compromise. All of it. Supporting a President really means applying counterpressure to keep him from toppling.

Very good points. A lot of people on here keep forgetting the first part, I think.
