"He [Dubya] does not seize on Executive prerogatives, but that could be because of absence of cetain body parts."

LOL...oooh -- the Bushbot crew will make you pay for this comment only for the next 300 or so posts. Then they'll drink another few pots of java and go atcha fer another 300.

If so then who should Bush be replaced with.

It took 800 posts for you to ask a good question. Bush should be replaced by someone who has built his own career, and spent most of his life battling govt red-tape. He/She should be someone who will honor the pledges made during campaign, and will only have fellow conservatives in the cabinet. He/She must understand the laws of economics, and must discredit compassionate conservatism. That is a good start.

Name please.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, blah, blah, blah ; not to mention Y-A-W-N ! Have you just learned a new vocabulary word ? That's only the second time, that you've managed to use " hyperbole " in a sentence. One more time, and you just " might " retain it. LOL

I got my Master's degree, before you were even a gleam in your father's eye, kid. Now YOU run along ; it must be way past your bedtime. :-)

See you are proving my claim. Keep it up and Ari will call you in the morning. You better have some choice words to attack your man's political opponents though.

Join the paty. We are about to be told the name of the "real" conservative" that is waiting in the wings to replace Bush.

There is NO such person, and IF there was, such a " paragon " ( snicker ) of Conservatism, he / she couldn't get elected dog catcher. let alone president. Your political naiveye and hubris , are beyond belief. Really !

[nopardons]

Delusional, childish prattle. There is no such person; never was. LOL

For the record, Bush is not the greatest conservative ever. He has and will continue to make mistakes. He is no saint and certainly not God himself.

I just happen to think that he's a good man that's been handed a tough job with the economy already in a downslide since March of 2000. He didn't receive the popular vote officially, had a shortened transition thanks to Al Gore and Joe Lieberman, and shortly after he took office had Jim Jeffords pull a Benedict Arnold.

I'm willing to be patient and believe that when it comes to the one item that our federal government is charged with, our national defense, he will do right by the military and the best job possible on homeland defense.

If anybody that hates Bush could come up with an electable alternative that could go in to DC and immediately get a majority of the House & Senate to pass his legislation without having a majority in one of the Houses, then speak up. I'm all ears.

Hmmm...the last two lines do not rhyme though. Try this to the tune of "doe a deer..."

Bush - a wimp, a lib'ral wimp
Dole - a yellow piece of fruit
Kemp - a third-string quarterback
Newt - who'd name a person "Newt"?
Riordan - his money can't buy votes
Strom - he lost in forty-eight
Helms - oh, wouldn't that be great?
But it seems we're stuck with Bush...

[Republican Wildcat]

Oh, you're "academic background." I'm as impressed with that as the fact that Joycelyn Elders is an M.D. and Alan Dershowitz is a Harvard Professor. Doesn't mean squat if you have no common sense to go with it (and you don't).

Now as to your comment about us thinking Bush is perfect in every way and all that other nonsense, please post some proof of this. Otherwise, it's just yet another one of your many, many lies.

[nopardons]

Good grief ! You really do imagine that you are clever and intelligent.

You keep posting, dear; you're one of the most unintentionally funny posters, on this thread.

[Dane]

Your(satadru's) political naiveye and hubris , are beyond belief.

Perfect description of the self annoited conservative of all conservatives.

[terilyn]

Oh, and neither is he the devil incarnate you try to make him out to be.

And further, "If you are frustrated in more than one department, this compassionate conservative will provide free services." If that's how you ask a girl for a date...well...ROFLOL!

[Satadru]

Someone like Schundler, Forbes, Ron Paul, or Keyes.

[nopardons]

Fortieth rate Bennet Cerf and about par for your " intellectual heft ". LOL
