Bush is losing support on right (LIar Alert)

Star Tribune ^ | 9/20/03

[areafiftyone]

These lies only inflame the Democreeps into thinking that conservatives will run to their side. How dumb can they be!

[Loyal Buckeye]

Yep, that's why we are all going to vote for Howard Dean. Hahahahahahaahaaha...

[Cicero]

It's true that Bush offends some conservatives, especially Libertarians and money conservatives. But IMHO he has done as much as he can, given the political difficulties and a virulently hostile press. He has been sound on the basic issues.

[EternalVigilance]

"I hate to say they've got nowhere else to go, but I think most conservatives will stick with the president," said former Rep. Vin Weber, who is co-chair of Bush's reelection campaign in Minnesota and four other states.

Then don't say it, ya idjit...

[SandRat]

Delusion abounds among the DummieCraps.

When all is said and done on election day and the votes tallied the answer will be .........

[tioga]

Well said, SandRat!

This conservative loves GWB!!!!!!!!!

[Sabertooth]

Bush didn't bungle the War in Iraq, or the War on Terror in general. The Road Map, though, is a disaster.

On the domestic front, Bush didn't bungle tax cuts.

Bush's handling of the Illegal Alien issue, however, has been abysmal.

Still not a peep from this President on the fifteen states and counting that are issuing drivers' licenses to Illegals, or the widespread acceptance of Mexican matricula consular ID cards.

[PISANO]

Us on the right have no other place to go. It is the mushy, finger in the air, middle that has departed. The year long onslaught by the gimmies, aided by most in the media, is in full swing and by election time should be at fever pitch.

It is a tribute to GW that he is still at 50% approval.

[KC_Conspirator]

But the source of those criticisms is: They're increasingly coming from conservatives.

What an outright lie. The only real complaint I have heard is that he is spending way too much and that he won't fight for conservative judges who follow the law.

[proxy_user]

How about his education policies? The No Child Left Behind Act tramples on the rights of states, towns, and parents. It creates a mind-numbing tangle of federal regulations that cannot possibly be followed. And Bush thinks it's great.

[John Beresford Tipton]

"And Bush thinks it's great."

Now, there are two words rarely seen together.

[Cobra64]

The last education bill was rammed down W's throat by Teddy.

Thanks for posting this article. I wouldn't have seen it otherwise...and I live in Minneapolis. I quit buying the Red Star Tribune during the impeachment hearings of Kaptain Klinton. The bias of this 'paper' has to be among the worst of news outlets in the nation. I hope it gives all the libs a false sense of security. They live in the land of illusion and smoke and mirrors anyway. I know. My neighborhood is full of them. As I write this, I can see the Howard Dean bumper sticker on my neighbor's car across the street. She and her 'partner' are lesbians. Go figure. Oh, and go Howie!

[Mini-14]

Those who claim that conservatives fully support Bush, have apparently not been reading all the threads on FreeRepublic.  For example, 

'Bush totally against scrapping H1-B visas'

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/983379/posts

This could be a pivotal election issue. Foreigners occuping high tech jobs when American citizens are out of work IS a big issue.

-------------

This is the reason President Bush has lost my vote in the next Presidential election. I doubt that I am the only one who will repay the President's back-of-the-hand to American workers with a no-show or a vote for the Rat party come election day.

-------------

Me either. I have held my nose for years and compromised my principles while Republicrat traitors like Bush take my vote and urinate on me later.

-------------

Nor I! I've been a lifelong Pubbie, as is my mom, as were here parents. Now that W has morphed into FDR-lite, and daily expresses contempt for our manufacturing base and hi-tech industries, I will either sit it out, or vote 3rd party if one pops up.

-------------

I cannot vote for George W. Bush in the 2004 election. The ONLY thing that could change that is if Hillary Clinton runs. Otherwise, the presidential ticket will remain unvoted on my ballot.

-------------

He's so damned interested in selling us out to India that he forgot he won by 500 votes last time.

-------------

This is one more reason why I am leaning towards not voting for Bush this time around.

-------------

This entire jobs thing, including illegal immigration, is the Republican Achilles Heel. One would thinks tacticians as astute as Karl Rove would see that. On the other hand, maybe they think the big campaign donations will override the problems with cash and advertising.

-------------

Bush,Davis,Bustamante, and most of the rest couldn't care less about the backbone of this country.I think they have contempt for us.As long as we let them spit on us they will never stop ruining our future.

-------------

Maybe the President needs to look at all the H1B and L1 technology workers who can not vote for him and all the out of work technology workers who may not vote for him before he makes promises like this.

-------------

I agree. It's nasty thing that he's doing not dismantling this outdate program.

-------------

H1-B's, amnesty for illegals (pre-9/11), "free" trade with China - why does Bush hate the middle class?

-------------

What about his obligations to the stinking mass of heathens in china and india? Surely he must serve them as well.

-------------

I never blame Bush for the economy. But when he spits on Americans in favor of Indian workers there is a problem.

-------------

The owners of the companies who are laying off american workers and hiring H1B's are the people writing the biggest campaign contributions. How much money can ya get out of a layed off IT worker anyways?

IMO President Bush has shown great courage and resolve in the time since Sept. 11, 2001. I cannot remember anyone having so many problems stacked on their plate. The ankle-biters should be ignored. He aint perfect but considering the alternatives he's dang sure got my vote.

I never understand articles like this. The lefties always build a litmus test so they think these things are important. It may go back to right after the October Revolution when the various factions butchered one another over minutae (Stacanovites?).

I am critical of Bush. His failure to seal the Mexican border and to round up the wetbacks among us is criminal. The terrorists that sneak across this border with other illegals will bring another 9/11 to our country, all because Bush refuses to comply with his oath to defend the nation.

That doesn't mean, however, that I'd not continue to support him or would ever believe, much less vote for, one of the sleazy, lying dems (and, what other kind is there?).

[KC_Conspirator]

Anecdotes from Free Republic are not worthy of a tangible support claim. If you just read FR before the 2000 election you would have thought Pat Buchanan was going to be elected President.

I do however, agree that H1-B visas and the shipping of high end jobs overseas is bad economic policy. It happened to me this year and I am still looking.

[areafiftyone]

I cannot remember anyone having so many problems stacked on their plate.

You are sooo right. The former "Commander in Heat" Clinton is soo jealous that he didn't have have the problems that Bush had that he had to go all the way to Kosovo to get people to cheer him. Since Bush was in office I have seen nothing but jealousy on the Democreeps's part. Jealous of Bush and his handling of 9/11. Jealous of Bush's quick take over of Iraq. Jealous of Bush's landing on the aircraft carrier and now jealous of Bush's approval rating. They are pathetic. They are nothing but a bunch of babies.

[Mini-14]

What industry/position were you in, and how long have you been looking? Are you looking nationwide for work? (I don't have any solutions for you, I am just curious).

In my case, I got laid off twice in Dallas, and moved to Illinois in 2001 after an eight month period of unemployment.

[Consort]

The article must be referring to the Clinton Conservatives.
