Top 10 reasons for President Bush's Re-election

May 4, 2002

Your #2 is the killer for me. Uncontrolled illegal immigration will result in the destruction of this country. Bush has shown no inclination to deal with the problem of 10 million illegal aliens in this country. The melting pot philosophy that made this country strong is dead. We are becoming something more akin to the former Yugoslavia.

If Bush doesn't change his pandering for the multicultural vote by weakening our borders and devaluing legal immigration channels, t will not vote for him again. I can't stomach voting for a dem, but I'll just go fishing. Bush is taking too much of his base for granted and 2004 is not in the bag.

To those who say not voting for Bush is just bringing on a worse alternative, I say that we must endure the pain to stop the slow, "boiled frog," slide to our destruction.

make that three :) ..the AWB ban, border situation worry me most of all.

[GummyIII]

What indications do you have that he's riding coatails of the war? Do you think this man is stupid, unable to learn from his father's mistakes?

Haven't had time for any indications, yet. I certainly hope he's "smarter" than his father in that respect. Smart doesn't mean common sense, however. That was a response to an earlier statement....put it all in perspective.

There are three groups we can always count on to trash Bush:

1. The gay left.
2. The poverty pimps.
3. Patsy Buchanan's Black Helicopter Brigadiers.

Nice to see that #3 still hangs out on FR to whine.

[jammer]

Welcome. I suspect that there are more in the "trust, but verify" corner than we know.

[Final Authority]

They are all good reasons not to vote Democrat. If Bush doesn't control the borders and promote manufacturing in the USA (jobs with decent pay) is he doing all he can? One other stumbling block. After all the Dems running in the primary (losers)have beaten each other brains in and Crazy Al has gone so far left that he is left of Mao, Hillary will walk up to the mic at the convention and accept the nod by acclaimation for the Democrat candidate for the Presidency in 2004. She won't have to say much of anything all during the primary season except to take potshots at GWB and the "rich" conservatives destroying the country with all their disgusting wealth and religious ideals. I'll tell you now, she will be positioned to steal one and I think this is exactly what the Dems are thinking too.

ice to see that #3 still hangs out on FR to whine.

While I don't belong to that group, I'm glad FR still allows free speech. Peace.

Meanwhile, more conservative judges are taking their seats

I was thinking today about the wisdom of the democrat filibustering
Yes, they are keeping some nominees off the bench, but this
may be a mistake.  These nominees are only as conservative as
the administration thinks it can get confirmed in the current
political climate.  They are not the most partisan out there.
After the upcoming election, it is entirely possible that the Senate
will be so strongly Republican that Bush will be able to install
judges that are anathema to liberals.  The dem Senators should
take the moderate judges offered them now and get those seats
filled while avoiding the  damage of being seen as obstructionist.  These
judges are more moderate than what is coming and the dems
are digging their own graves by stalling until real heavyweights
get confirmed by absolute majorities.

Dubya has kept every promise...

How quickly they forget. http://www.nationalreview.com/lowry/lowry022102.shtml. I know, "no one cares", so it probably won't matter. Just like all other violations of the Constitution haven't mattered for over 150 years.

The Repubs control...both houses of congress

You're calling what Limp-Wrist Frist does "control"?

They'll probbly lose 3-4 in the Senate

Four in the Senate, according to Bob Novak's column. Fine with me; all those were there in 1999.

[breakem]

Does anyone else want to vomit when they read election news a year and a half before the fact?

[WhaChuLookinAt]

You forgot #7.

7. No more campaign promises broken (i.e. un-Constitutional campaign finance restrictions)

Apparently, you and I are about the only ones in that corner in this forum, Gummy

And WhaChu makes four. I have the luxury of voting in a state, AL, that did and WILL go to Bush.

#18 he sure as hell isn't a proponent of bigger govt

Then why did he let Dead Kennedy write the education spending bill?

Cutting taxes will shrink govt. not far down the line

Yeah, right. Worked real well for Reagan, didn't it? As most right-thinkers know, reducing an excessive tax burden to the small degree W has proposed will, probably sooner than later, result in ADDITIONAL revenue, and thusly more, not less, spending. Of course, not changing the Alternative Minimum Tax will eliminate much of that tax cut he worked hard for, so I guess government doesn't get to grow as much - of course, that's less change in your pocket, less economic growth, and less chance of finding better employment. Also, not reducing or even increasing the complexity in the code inherently makes government more powerful.

#24 Nice to see that #3 still hangs out on FR to whine

So expressing concern about continual violations of my inherent rights is "whining". Nice call, Commie.

One question for the "GOP or Bust" crowd: if a President and his party is either unwilling to eliminate governmental violations of Constutitional rights or, worse, contributes to those violations, why vote for them? Why give them credit for sending the military to eliminate imminent threats to our nation and our rights (as was Hussein) when they before, during, and after continue to violate those rights themselves?

[jammer]

Ridiculous characterization. One day, you'll grow up too. I hope it's not too late for the Republic.

[StriperSniper]

I would have put in Hillary! instead of Mr. Monkey Business.

Isolationism doesn't work. Ask the former soviet union and china.

Top 10 reasons for President Bush's Re-election

The Best Reason Of All:

The alternative is a Democrat.

[wardaddy]

One reason: He's the best choice that can get elected over absolutely terrible country-destroying alternatives.

[Young Rhino]

Which group are you in anyway?

1. The gay left.
2. The poverty pimps.
3. Patsy Buchanan's Black Helicopter Brigadiers.

Please let me know so that I have point of reference when dealing with your nonsensical ravings.

[montag813]

6. Judicial Obstruction. While the unprecidented filibuster of judicial nominees may play well in NYC and LA, most people see it for what it is. Meanwhile, more conservative judges are taking their seats, while liberal judges continue to be overturned.

Every day Bush does not start making recess appointments is a day during which that Judge is NOT overruling, overturning and reversing 40 years of Socialism.

PLEASE JOIN ME IN URGING THE PRESIDENT TO PUT ESTRADA AND DOZENS OF OTHERS ON THE COURT WITH RECESS APPOINTMENTS DURING THE FOURTH OF JULY.

[wardaddy]

I sure HOPE you are right.
