Look, we've got to win the bloody election before anything else can be done. Can't you see that?

If Bush went with the policies you demand of him, he'd be right where the Constitution Party is in the polls, or where Pat Buchannan was in 2000. Get it?

You're free to have a lot more principles when you don't have to govern.

We are starting to be AFRAID of what else he wants to do after he gets re-elected!

It's politically wise (though ethically challenged) to buy votes from swing voters.

It's both unethical and dumb to try and buy votes from those who'll NEVER vote for you in a million years.

No matter what it costs? Bull $hit! I'm getting damned tired of people telling me that I have to prostitute my ideals just to win an election. I voted against his father because he was out of touch. If W gets any further out of touch, he can do without my vote as well.

Try reading your own tagline.

You don't get "victory" over the "left" by "imitating" the left?

Duh.

Do you hear the laughter? That's Bush, laughing at conservatives. He's got them by the b*lls and he knows it. He knows that, whatever he does to gain more votes for HIM (flooding the country with illegals, giving the liberals more and bigger government), conservatives will swallow their beliefs and still support him because they HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE. But they say: just wait ANOTHER year! By golly, NEXT term he will REALLY be a conservative! When there's ENOUGH Republicans in Congress! Just another term,....

Bush won the "bloody" election in 2000 and has worked to increase the size and spending of the federal government to a size larger than any conservative could ever imagine. He has done a great job of making the idea of "limited government" nothing more than an idea.

Either Rick Perry, Mark Sanford, or Bill Owens will prove you wrong 100% on that point in 2008.
