Which is the very reason not to abandon the Republican party.

No, you don't get it. REPUBLICANS aren't trying to patch the holes... they're CREATING the holes. They're simply responding to the desires of Republican VOTERS. I refuse to support a party that panders to people at the expense of principle, especially when it comes to the Constitution, liberty, and freedom.

What conservative programs has Bush tried to implement?

[gunshy]

Either way, democrat, republican, libertarian or no vote, we still get a liberal vote in congress.

[gcruse]

What conservative programs has Bush tried to implement?

Not many.  I expected a conservative, though.  The
fact that I voted for him doesn't make me a liberal, for god's sake.

[gunshy]

You're right and I apologize for my use of profanity in calling you a liberal. I hope, however, that you will be more discriminating in the future. Assuming that Bush doesn't change his ways.

[BurFred]

You are either a woman or someone who has no understanding of politics, I suspect the former. You can't debate the issue so you insult me and give up. You are a pussy and should just hide under your bed because lord knows your too stupid to vote.

[BurFred]

So what is the solution? To not vote? Or should I vote for a party that can't win and have no voice at all?

[BurFred]

So we should just hide in our houses and not vote at all? "They all suck so I"m staying home" Your the kind of conservative that bugs me the most. The mentality that they are all the same is doom and gloom. Just give up and admit defeat is what your advocating.

[gunshy]

Your the kind of conservative that bugs me the most.

I probably am, because I have principles and I will not hold my nose when I vote like you robot republicans. You all believe that if there is an R by the candidates name everything will be all right. Well I won't vote for the trash that the republicans put up.
