So, Tumbleweed, who does the author suggest we do vote for? What's his alternative? Yours?

I've learned that when complaints are given without subsequent solutions, stop listening. Why? Because it's not problem solving, only complaining. I have enough to complain about in my own life and have better things to do than to waste time listening to others' complaints.

Let's be frank. George W. Bush is not a panacea to conservatives and, Rush's cheerleading aside, never made himself out to be one. All you have to do is look at his record as Governor of Texas and his "bigger government" proposals on the campaign trail.

Saying he is a "uniter not a divider" is another way of saying he lacks the cajones to take the fight to the Democrats. He'd rather try to persuade and compromise (which worked better in Texas where even the Democrats aren't like San Franciscans).

He is popular with all but the fringe left because he's willing to put one or two homosexuals on his staff, willing to water down bills so they have no teeth, willing to co-opt Democrat issues the way Clinton did some conservative issues and let the Ted Kennedys of the world say nice things about him.

Dubya hasn't changed. I don't see why so many think he has.
