Andrew is merely upset that Bush tried to push through the new constitutional amendment defending marriage. Andrew, really, there are more important things in life than you wanting to get married to another man - this is blinding you to Kerry's deficiencies and exaggerating Bush's defects. Terrorists do not respect anything less than total resolve - and President Bush has that in abundance. You ought to be bloody ashamed.

Ping!

Boycott his blog! I stopped visiting his site earlier this year when he started to become anti-Bush over gay marriage issue. He is a well known homosexual with AIDS.

[ChewedGum]

Very nicely put, Ivan. I used to read Sullivan because of his well thought-out and well-stated content. Once it became gay-marriage all the time, the thought seemed to go out the window and it was no longer an enjoyable read.

What is interesting is this attacks Bush's foreign policy, something which Sullivan cheered on until only recently.

I stopped reading Princess Andrew a long while ago, when I found out just how much of a perv he truly is.

[Jeff Chandler]

Yep, it's all about fudge.

I like Sullivan, but even more than Hitchens, I never have ANY certainty that I know how he would think on any particular issue. He ALWAYS surprises me. Not a bad thing. Just means he's an individual.

I'm hoping this is mostly tongue-in-cheek.

His title should be

Kerry: the right choice for homosexuals

[Dave Burns]

If John Kerry's the right choice for conservatives then the Liberals are all voting, financing, and campaigning for the wrong choice.

A thoroughly disingenuous piece. Sullivan hasn't bitched about Bush being reckless before. Now suddenly he does. What he bitched about was that Bush was too craven to the religious right when it came to gays. Why doesn't Sullivan just admit that he gives that one issue huge weight, and since he doesn't see much difference between Bush and Kerry on other issues, he is just free to vote based on the gay issue? Wouldn't that be a tad more honest, than all the tendentious bridgework about "recklessness?"

Andrew, I hate it that you have become something of a liar. I thought better of you. I don't mind it much when you annoy "conservatives," I annoy them often myself, but I do mind when you just become another contributor to the tangled web, intending to deceive.

[hang 'em]

Wonder if the old barebacker is dating David Brock?

[gilliam]

You see, folks, it is all about gay marriage. When Bush went against gay marriage, Sullivan went against Bush.

[Tall_Texan]

There are some valid criticisms of Bush but deciding that the correct response is to support Kerry is like choosing amputation to treat a hangnail.

[Unam Sanctam]

Yes, Andrew has truly gone over to the dark side.

[Texas Eagle]

What does this Sullivan guy think his readers are? A bunch of Florida voters?

Come on, Andy. Give your readers at least a little credit. They didn't all have their brains violently sucked out moments before birth. Maybe some of them, but not all.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Yeah, well, this is horsecrap, Andrew. The war in Iraq was about national security, and the need for stabilization ("nation building" as you call it) is an integral part of that security.

The spending side is, I believe, a wraparound attempt to put emphasis on a private solution with government aid.

A second GWB term will likely focus on more privatization--welfare programs, social security, et al. Hopefully, an emphasis on fixing the "reform" McLame & Co. foisted upon America, too.

Bush hasn't done everything the way I thought he should, but he is definitely getting my vote. Kerry is not a conservative. No way, no how.

[swilhelm73]

Kerry is the most leftwing candidate to ever win a major party nomination in the United States. He has admitted to committing war crimes. He actively seeks to return the nation to Clinton's failed security polices which led directly to 9/11. He wants to raise taxes. He has promised to increase spending significantly.

Bush has governed as a center-right president. Not as conservative as any of us hoped, but at least as conservative as we expected. He has pulled off two major successes in the war on terror - and so far has prevented any more major attacks against the domestic US. He has cut taxes. He has not cut spending and he has folded on a number of issues to the Left.

Any conservative looking at the two has no real decision to make. Bush is their man. Is he perfect? No. But frankly even beyond the certain damage Kerry would do to the US economy and our precious freedom and soverignty, electing Kerry is the only thing we could do right now to lose the war on terror. A vote for Kerry is a vote to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
