Yeah, what a sellout.

You glass is half empty guys drive me crazy.

>>Appointed conservative judges.

No, he *nominated* conservative judges, and then let them get massacred by the Democrats without defending them. Meanwhile, he re-nominated Clinton's judges who won easily.

>>Killed Kyoto.

Kyoto was defeated 95-0 by the Senate before Bush came into office.

>> Killed the ABM treaty.
>> Pushing ahead with national missile defense.
>> Put Saddam and the Taliban out of power.
>> Crippled Al Qaeda.

I believe I did say, "on domestic policy." These FOREIGN policy achievements are why I said he's better than a Demonrat.

>> Two tax cuts.

*Budget* cuts impress me. Tax cuts... well, it depends on what you're cutting. I'll give him some credit that he did cut taxes at all, but if you're going to cut taxes by that much, you should be able to do some tax justice.

Sorry, but 'pubbies' tax cuts don't please the masses when they act as if:

* investing your inheritance shouldn't be taxed, but busting your ass at work should be;
* they've gotten rid of the marriage penalty when they haven't touched the EIC discrepancy;
* Wining and dining clients at luxury box seats is a "necessary expense," but feeding your family is not.
* Social Security and Medicare aren't really taxes.

The democrats are beating us on the tax and budget issues. How the ***** did Bush let that happen? By passing tax cuts, but passing dumb ones.

Hey listen, I know that Gore wouldn't've cut taxes on anyone, and that the Democrats' alternate tax cuts were simply political posturing. But I'm talking *politics*, and Bush's tax politics were simple-minded.

O, and once again, I *will* vote for the guy; I'm not a 3rd-party, waste-your-vote guy. I'm only bemoaning Bush's poor political standing because I wish he would win, and I think he's harming his chances, and the chances of getting a workable majority in the Senate, by espousing liberal ideas.
