What all this seems to boil down to is that Republicans should return to the losing position of saving money for the RATS to spend. The angry postings against Bush replicate the heated arguments I heard from persons who considered themselves true blue conservatives and voted for Ross Perot, thus puting the Clinton RATS in power. Then there are those who sit out elections so they can remain martyrs for the cause of---??. The appointment of right thinking supreme court justices trumps every objection to George Bush thus far put forth by any of you. That will be the real test for the Bush administration and the most far reaching.

And the fact that Perot's wife was a bigwig in Texas planned parenthood didn't faze them either.

Like I said before on this thread these malcontents are very proficient in the practice "of cutting ones nose, to spite ones face".

"right-thinking Supreme [appointments]

DOn't count on it. Dick Viguerie, who was 100% correct about Reagan's disastrous nomination of "Sodomy Sadie" O'Connor, has also predicted that Bush's first Supreme nomination will be just as bad.

Voting every 4 years for President in the general election consists of perhaps 1% of potential political involvement.
The pointless and couterproductive exercise of voting for a 3rd party candidate is perhaps an example of "road to hell is paved with good intentions".

The Perot voters had their 'say' ... and yet, democratic processes have a way of channelling desires. The Republicans in 1994 tapped the "Perot" voter and brought to DC a frugal and focussed Republican majority. (It has subsequently lost its way after getting demagogued into reflex behavior by Clinton. The Bush spending spree is a consequence of that reflex behavior; to stop it, we have to make Bush and GOP realize that it doesnt help them politically.)

If you are concerned about this issue, write letters to editor. Write to Congress. Write to the President.
Send angry notes to the RNC with nonfilledout donations.
Waiting until nov 2004 is a stupid way to face an issue we have TODAY and can do something about NOW.
