Well, you could also look at the fact that this administration jumped on the diversity bandwagon in its brief to the Supreme Court on affirmative action. Justice O'Connor, another "conservative" appointee, seized on this to enshrine reverse discrimination into the Constitution.

O'Connor was appointed by Reagan 25 years ago. I'm sorry if you think Reagan was too far to the left for you. Dubya argued against AA. You need to get your facts straight.

I'll grant that Bush is a better choice than Kerry on defense. However, that's damnation by faint praise. Who wouldn't be better than Kerry? All the same, the administration refuses to actually enlarge the military so we don;t become overstretched and allow our enemies to perceive us as weak.

So Dubya is only marginally better than Kerry? That's rediculous...and let me remind you Reagan cut and ran after Beirut.

Gun rights? Why hasn't the Republican Congress and White House restored the people of Washington DC their right to bear arms?

Dubya is about to let Clinton's AWB sunset...yet you see no difference. What gun ban has the Republican party passed in the last 20 years? None that I can recall. Hey wasn't Reagan a supporter of the Brady Bill?

And on abortion, the administratpion was great n the partial birth abortion ban. But where is a ban on human cloning? We have New Jersey getting ready to allow it within its borders and its on the way here in California. Why has the Republican leadership not moved to cork the genie in this bottle?

I said abortion not cloning. have 'rats passed a abortion ban?

Blah Blah blah...I get it now. To you, it is irrelevant what the majority of people in America believe or want. You want instant change and you want it right now.

ain't gonna happen. We didn't get to be a socialist country over night. Change takes time. It is unfortunate that many far right fringers can't see progress and fight against those who really are making the world a better place.

There is still hope, as the campaign of Greenie Ralph Nader and his Socialist Worker's Party cohort are carrying the UberKonservative banner for them, and leading the way to national salvation!

1. The Bush Justice Department stated in its brief that diversity is a compelling interest in education. It was done because Alberto Gonzales, the White House counsel, is on the short list to be President Bush's first appointment to the Supreme Court and Mr. Gonzales didn't want to have to answer pesky questions about why he didn't tow the diversity line when he came up for confirmation. This language was put in over the protests of the Solicitor General, because he realized that the "moderates" on the Court would use it to justify affirmative action. Then guess what? O'Connor used this language to justify affirmative action.

2. Bush is better than Kerry on defense. I conceded that. Yet you do not argue the point that the administration refuses to enlarge the military to avoid overstretch.

3. Gun rights. You still don't seem to mind that the people of our capital don;t have the right to bear arms despite nearly four years of a Republican Congress and White House. While letting the AWB ban die is great, it would be nice if the folks of DC had the right to defend themselves with any type of gun.

4. On cloning and abortion. They are intimately linked. The research into cloning necessarily requires the creation and destruction of human life. Is a baby not aborted simply because he or she was conceived in a test tube?

If I am not mistaken the Senator Bob Dole resurrected the so called "assault weapons ban" in the middle of the night. I remember watching it happen on c-span. The neo-cons and rinos are not friends of liberty any more that democrat-socialists are. Ashcroft is pushing the "Patriot Act II" which is a liberty destroying monster that will drive yet another nail in the coffin of our Republic. Your liberties are not safe as long as congress is in session.

It's way past high time some people got theor facts straight about the Republican Party and what it stands for.

1. Bush completely supports racial preferences. It was the White House counsel, an AA appointee named Alberto Gonzales, who ordered the Justice Dept. to narrow theor argument in the Grutter case so that O'Connor could enshrine racial preferences in the constitution. O'Connor was one of Reagan's greatest mistakes. She is an intellectual midget who was nothing more than a party apparatchik in the AZ Republican Party. Being a female to boot, it was a great two-fer: Payoff for the support of the AZ Party, and a sop to the feminists who were busy agitating for a female justice. To top it off, when asked about the Grutter decision, which is the moral equivalent of the Dred Scott decision since white Americans are enshrined as being 'less equal' than others, President Bush's only responese was to parrot a Marxist slogan: "Diversity is our strength!"

2. GW Bush is indeed only marginally better than Kerry on defense. He has continued Clinton's policies of a) allowing women in poistions very cole to combat; b) the "don't ask - don't tell facade for allowing gay infiltration of the military; c) refused to expand the numbers (as mentioned); d) continued Clinton's racial preference scheme, which replaced the previous truly color-blind system that had worked admirably since the Truman adminstration; e) selling off our military technology to the Chinese - smart bombs are now made in China.

3. Second Amendment. GW Bush has expicitly stated that he will sign a renewed Assaut Weapons ban. There has been a steady erosion of the second amendment. Judges have made ourtrageously unconstitutional decisions regarding this issue and Republicans - the plaid-pants Country Club types who own and operate the party - could care less.

4. Abortion. It's fascinating to see how many pro-lifers fell for the sham partial-birth abortion law and pledged their loyalty to Dubya. The Imperial Supreme Court has already decided that partial birth abortion is part of the constitution, even if equal protection of the law isn't (some of us being more equal than others). The law was a sop to pro-lifers to buy their votes - nothing more. It's already been struck down by a Marxist judge, and will certainly be decalred unconstitutional by a host of others. The one thing GWB could have done to truly influence the courts was to support Pat Toomey's challenge to the abominable leftist RINO pro-abortionist Areln Specter, who will be in charge of the Senate Judiciary Committee should the Republicans maintain control of the Senate. Specter will make sure that no pro-life judge is seated. Bush campaigned for Specter against the unabashedly pro-life Toomey. There's no excuse. As with defense, Bush is at best only marginally better than Kerry. At least Kerry is honest about hos support of abortion.

Oh, and lest we forget: GWB had nothing but effusive praise for Bill Clinton, a President who actually betrayed the country to a hostile foreign power by selling sensitive military technology which has enabled them to delpoy missiles capable of vaporizing American cities. Not only has Dubya left numerous of the Clinton un-dead walking the halls of Federal agencies (Norman Mineta being as shining example), he refuses to prosecute the numerous crimes of the criminal Clinton gang. Even worse, the Bush Justice Dept. has been spending our tac dollars to defend the criminal activities of the Clintons against lawsuits. Again, there's no excuse.

The Republican Party is owned and operated by Corporatist apparatchiks who care nothing about the issues that religious people and other social conservatives care about. There have been 120 documented incidents of the Mexican Army crossing the border in the last decade. As someone mentioned, the open-borders Jihadis at the Wall Street Journal flatly advocate the abolition of the United States as an independent political entity by diisoving its borders. Illegal aliens are now allowed to vote (suppoesedly only in local elections - hahaha), sit in juries, receive in-state tuition, welfare (free medical care, housing, food stamps), obtain driver's licenses, open bank accounts, etc., etc. As others have mentioned, Bush's amnesty plan to legalize ethe lawless basically would allow any foreign national to underbid an American worker for their job. To top it all off, the Imperial Supreme Court declared this week that enemby combatants - foreign nationals captured in persuing armed action gainst the United States - are entitled to the constitutional protections that normally would only apply to citizens, Any expression of outrage over such a lawless re-write of the Constitution? Does that oath the President and others take really mean anything? I guess it's just a formaility now - nothing more.

Kerry and Bush are not substantively different on any issue of importance to bona-fide conservatives. It's a sad state of affairs. Bush has the edge only insofar that he is less honest about his liberalism than Kerry.
