DU really misses you.

I am not a DUmmy. I am a libertarian who believes in a strong, but constitutionally limited government. I voted for Bush, will vote for Ron Paul and will settle for Mitt Romney in the end. George Bush has disappointed me terribly. He consistently sends a budget that grow 2-3 times inflation to Congress as his going in position and Congress will add even more. W's foreign policy has been terrible. He refuses to confront the Saudi problem and has allowed in 20,000 Saudis on student visas; just like the 911 hijackers. He refuses to defend the border and refuses to pardon the 2 border patrol agents who defend our border. I don't think I'd be anymore welcome at the DU than I am here. It's been said its good to entertain different positions, if for nothing else than to avoid a group think party. I wish I was playing devils advocate, but I've reviewed the facts and you have my point of view.

More's the pity for America. I heard Mitt Romney on Sean Hannity yesterday. I was willing to consider him until I heard him say the he does not support the Fair Tax, but wants to see the current tax system improved slightly. Lost me right there. If you really believe that you are a Libertarian, you better turn tail and run as far and as fast from this guy as you can.

On to your whine about Bush. I will agree that I am disappointed in Bush and that he has failed to be the president I had hoped, but lie!!?? I think not. Since you're so knowledgeable, you do know that we found WMD in Iraq, don't you? You are aware that they found artillery shells filled with sarin gas, right?? You read the article published about 2-1/2 or 3 years ago that we found about 2 tons of weapons grade uranium, right?? You saw the articles about us finding Saddam's air force fighter jets buried in the desert, right??

If you got snookered, it wasn't by Bush, it was because you follow the MSM too closely. All of this information was available here and on Neal Boortz's site. Bush pulled no sleight-of-hand to get us into the war, he told us what was there and then proved it.

Bear in mind that Bush justified going to war using the very same intelligence info that Clinton and the Dems had prior to 2000. It was also the same intelligence that England, Germany, France, Australia, Japan and many other nations had about Iraq.

Be disappointed in George Bush all you like, many of us are. I have voted for more Bush's than you can count and I am also disappointed in W, but let's give credit where credit is due. We have a super-heated economy due solely to the tax cuts he pushed through. Don't get accustomed to them because the Dems are set to push through a tax increase of $400 billion that wipes out Bush's tax cuts and adds more on top of it. You want to be disappointed, be disappointed that we have a communist like Hillary who may be our next dicta . . . . er, president, who has promised to "take things away from" us. The leftists in this country won't be satisfied until they have taxed and robbed America back to the 7th Century and we are all praying to Allah.

Be as disappointed with Bush as you like. Be as disappointed with Republicans in general if you will. But, by God, look at the big picture!! It isn't about you or your disappointment. If '06 wasn't bad enough, '08 will be our greatest nightmare if we can't find a better candidate than Romney, Giuliani, or McCain. Stop whining about how disappointed you are in Bush and start thinking about America!! Our homes and our very lives are at stake. The more conservatives there are like you, the more the leftists love you, because it's one more conservative who will vote to split the Republican ticket and hand the WH and the Congress to the left next year.
