This is just another installment of the libs (with the help of their willing accomplices in the media) throwing anything against the wall to see what sticks. More and more of these will be coming out. Yet this is a special one for left and I am surprised was used so early. The “dumb republican”. Let’s see...First it used on Ford then Reagan, then Bush 43. I guess Thompson is the latest nominee.
What happened to this guy? He used to run circles around the Dems now he is becoming a carricature of himself. W was building a Reaganesque legacy. His new tone compassionate conservatism is killing the party. I thought Josh Bolten was going to shake this team up? Tony Snow sucks and has now become "one of them". Gonzales as bad as he is should not be falling on the sword. I know, I know he is a great man but he is becoming a joke as a president
How many more months until "The New Tone" Compassionate Conservatism" is over? Our next leader better push back when harassed. Gonzales isn't great but there is no reason he should be falling on the sword like this and there is no reason President Bush can't just stand up for himself. I am sick of defending an individual that chooses not to defend himself
To be honest I am getting tired of hearing people on our side saying "vote for Rudy he is almost conservative". Why should we defer to these pseudo candidates when it should be the other way around. We shouldn't be fooled by Giulliani's lip service (or lisp service). He hates guns, all the judges he appointed are liberals and if this man gets in we are all going to be on this message board complaining about the same thing we disapproved of in our current President. Yes, like President Bush he would be great on the War On Terror but so would Gingrich, Hunter, Thompson.
To be fair to Will, he is not exactly attacking Reagan. He is stating facts. If Reagan never did any of those things it would be a different story. The point Will is trying to make is that Conservatives should ease off on the litmus tests because even Reagan did things that were un-conservative.
