Hey, think of the money Uncle Prescott Jr. made in China. Wasn't that worth all of it?!
Gotta do what's right for tha fambly...
“I still think the worst political mistake Ronald Reagan ever made was allowing the GOP to force him into choosing George H.W. Bush as his running mate and allowing the Bush dynasty to get a foothold on Pennsylvania Avenue.”
Ditto.
That’s sheer puffery by Thiessen. I liked W, but he was no way near being a conservative.
That’s not to say that he didn’t sometimes land on the conservative side. It isn’t enough to simply say conservative things. One has to promote and produce conservative policies a majority of the time to be a conservative. W didn’t.

Also, I think Obama takes big fat %$#@!s up his @^%, and &^%s litle &^%s in the &^% for fun.
most americans agreed with those policies which were an extension of Ronald Reagan’s, who Paul also turned his back on. That’s one big reason why Bush won the presidency.
No argument there... but Bush is not obama.

Agreed.

I love the guy, but while he is a good man on many levels, and took his duties as commander seriously, a conservative he was not. I am glad he was in office after 911 as opposed to Gore or Kerry, but he was not capable of reversing our slide away from the constitution. He was a social conservative, but not a small government conservative. I agree with the article.
Do I have to make this simple ? Republicans are always better than democrats because they are not democrats. If republicans spend a dollar, democrats will spend two. That is 100% improvement (no matter what side you are on.)
“Bush was a globalist who saw America in charge of the New World Order. Obama is a globalist who envisions a post-American World Government. Bush “chucked aside his free market principles to save the free market”. Obama openly hates the free market. “
Obama is also a life long fraud and con man. He is probably below average in intelligence, and has merely studied for years on a teleprompter.
“Also, I think Obama takes big fat %$#@!s up his @^%, and &^%s litle &^%s in the &^% for fun. “
That may be part of your genetic homophobia.........but I doubt it, because I agree that Obama is a poofter ;-)
Senior: “READ MY HIPS”
Yuneyor: “ SEE YOU AT THE SIGNING”
Really? He doesnt seem that good at it. How come his approval ratings are down to 47% after a high of 70%??? Looks like the magic is gone.
Glad you fellows got off of Bush, because “ he kept you safe”
All three Bush’s are socialist progressives.
As is McCain, Graham, Mitt and several others.
Well, whatever President Bush was, it was not conservative.
I STILL miss him though.
I’d take the Bush years over the Clinton and Obambi years in a HEARTBEAT! At least I was able to sleep at night under Bush....
You guys are freaking brutal!
Just another scuttle thread......a textbomb attack on the moderates from paulistine...
Sorry Rab....not playin...
I agree that Bush was not a small government guy (although as I say, we were lucky to have him considering the alternative). But Paul disqualified himself from higher office when he takes the position that the US “caused” 911. I realize he’s in good company, he agrees with probably 99% of the English professors at community colleges all over America. So if Paul wants to run for English professor, great. President, no. Not qualified.
“I STILL miss him though.”
I’ll second that.
“Yuneyor: “ SEE YOU AT THE SIGNING”
Lol, this is an extremely minor irritation, but just important enough to point out. What W actually said was: “I’ll see you at the bill signing.”
That still irritates me, and I’ve often posted it here, also.
The final nail in paul’s coffin for me was saying the “cia needs to be destroyed” just weeks after losing 6 agents to a suicide bomber...
Totally clueless...
Under RP’s stated theory of executive power to project military action without congressional approval..
Jefferson sending the marines to tripoli was a gross violation of the Constitution...
*facepalm*
