It's gonna be a shocker like the Reagan landslide. We'll hear, "How did the GOP lose control? No one I knew was unhappy with the party."
Well, the mods just took the other thread out of "Breaking News".
Don't want too many people seeing how fed up many of us are with this Administration. They'll probably move this one to chat next.
There are several issues where BUsh has done fine and contiunues to do fine with my support. I agree with and support the actions in Afghanistan and Iraq. We are winning there and our enemies are being drawn to fly traps where they can be fought and eliminated there while we help the people there create much more stable and friendly nations towards us.
In general (outside of the major AWB issue) I support his stand on the 2nd Amendment.
In general I suupport his stance on abortion.
The tax cuts have been critical to the economy and nbeed to be made permanent.
His ideas for social security need to be pursued.
However, his actions as regards the border, the presecription drug program, big "compassionate" government spending, campaign finance reform and (as I said earlier) the Assault Weapon Ban are reprehensible and not worthy of support.
...and, having said that, a Gore or a Kerry would have been infintely worse on all counts.
As to the polls...that's all they are. The only important poll and approval raiting was taken in November 2004. There's another mid term poll coming up, and then the big one in November 2008.
No kidding. Admittedly, this one was posted first, but I suspected they'd pull that one because it was in Breaking News. Which is where this belongs, frankly. It's outrageous.
I'm sure the usual suspects will be along to make excuses.
I'm not even one that follows this stuff all that carefully, and think we need more legal immigration. But, this is absolutely egregious, and we need to see some immediate action on this, as well as apologies.
The stench can't be masked anymore. There is a lot of outrage at the President and GOP right now by conservatives that they very well have earned. Congress needs to cut it's ties from Bush and correct the course of this nation ASAP back to the ideas that got them there in 94. If they don't they'll be playing minority for years to come.

When they want to bury a story, it goes to the Smokey Backroom.
I must say I am no longer real pleased with President Bush. I used to have tremendous admiration for the man. I'm sure it is the same with many others as well.
The few of us must NEVER give up the fight. "We will save our Country or die trying"
