Well, I thought FreeRepublic might lose its energy after billy jeff left office, but I was wrong. And FR still has considerable influence, IMHO. It's one of the reasons why Democrat lies no longer work as well as they used to. In the election of 2002, the Dems pulled out every stop, including Bush pushing an old lady in a wheelchair downhill as he destroyed social security, and it just doesn't work any longer. I wonder why?

As for being knee-jerk Republicans, we still have plenty of people who don't like Republicans much around here, and plenty more who are willing to back George Bush as long as he does the right thing. It's hardly a case of W right or wrong. If he betrays the base, he loses it. Simple as that. But so far, Bush has been the anti-clinton--an honest man who says what he means and does what he says.

you are either on our side, or on the side of the terrorists. The US will make no destinction between those who fund terrorism or aid terrorists and the terrorists themselves.

I'm still waiting on that part to transpire.
