Well stated. Many of us here are strong supporters and at the same time rightly critical of President Bush's Socialist spending policies. What many don't realize is that the spending programs Bush has helped put into place will, in the future, help morph us into a Socialist hell. We are already at the threshold of going over the edge to European style Socialism. Just the unfunded pensions alone for state, local and Federal workers is over $21 trillion. Many here don't truly understand just how much Liberty has been taken from the citizens at the local, state and Federal level. Far from winning, conservatism is at most holding even. Many of us are still admiring of Bush's character, his appointments, his leadership on the WOT. But at the same time, we see the cancer of Socialism in many of his policies. Hell, if the damn Dept of Education didn't exist, we would be better off. Government schooling is working exactly as designed -- to produce obedient citizens with little critical thinking skills. Oh.. to have a Cleveland again as President :)
I myself wish we could get another Theordore Roosevelt.
Truly. Think of all the people today who are on the public dole. Everyone over 65. College kids. Farmers. All the welfare moms. Even the working folks who think the government is paying them when they get a tax refund.
