DM... This didn't start with GWB. The more I read, the more I realize what has been developing since the 60's. However, *I* am of the opinion the Clinton administration kicked this into high gear in '94, '95 to ensure they retained the WH, and lock in large electoral states. I know others will disagree and find equal weight contributing to the problem around the spectrum. But, to me, the doors were swung open the caught the Repubs blindsighted...or shortsighted... or well, going to get in on it by going RINO, to straddle the fence and still manage to keep their cushy job in DC. Again, this is just my little rant. I do not blame W for this whole debacle, but I am NOT happy that he has not been forthcoming with the public about this. Both parties will have to answer in 2006. So, it's up to us to make a last ditch effort to make sure only citizens, not legal guests, are able to vote for OUR representation.
I'm not here to argue about where more fault lies, I just wanted to understand what the heck has been going on, and now, how as Americans can we change what appears to be a backroom deal selling us out.
Firstly JJ, the Dems will NEVER "answer" for turning the U.S. into a Third World country. It's always been their goal to begin with -- socialism.
The responsibility for the US maintaining its greatness has always been with the GOP and conservatism to uphold.
In THIS regard, they have not only let us down but President Bush as its leader is LARGELY responsible -- especially in light of 9/11.
Conclusion?
ALL Americans who hold dear the sovereignty of our Republic have been bamboozled and sold moth-eaten bill of goods.
What would past American patriots Washington, Adams, Revere, Henry, Teddy Roosevelt, Pershing, Patton, and McArthur say about a President who actually encourages a foreign invasion?
