This is straying-off the topic a bunch. But this is such a widely-believed misconception, that i fealt compelled to explain something to you.<br /><br />It may
seem to you, that most 'cons like me think that Bush and his admin can do no wrong.<br />This is simply NOT TRUE, as much as it may appear to be upon the face of it. <br />The reason is, that the constant ripping-into Bush causes a rabbid defense that often goes overboard. As his GENUINE flaws are not usually debated. Just the ones on-topic -- a topic usually posted by a lib wishing to rip-into him on the hurricane response, the progress in Iraq (for that matter the war on terror itself)...<br />This seathing rage and hatered from the left, causes a constant barrage of "get Bush any way i can" posts. Things like accusing him of being a dunce, going AWOL from his service duties, taking a vacation in times of dire national emergancy--- all of that garbage...<br />What would you expect from ANY red-blooded American, who very-basically, believes in the guy they voted for??!<br />Otherwise, they would've voted for the traitor, right? <br />But to say most of us think GWB is "infallible", is crazy-talk! After all, GWBush has blown more of my cash on domestic spending than Clinton did. He spent more on welfare and providing for illegal immigrant medical care, than had his predescessor too! Heck, he even spent more than Clinton did on
LEVEE-CONSTRUCTION! <br />These, of course, are issues the rank-n-file libs and cons will not vary thier opinion on.So libs offend, us cons DEfend. Plain/simple.<br /><br /><br />No, he is far from the "ideal conservative" in office! He is no Reagan! What he is, however, IS better than the final alternatives we were given to choose from. But just like the dems, we messed-up durring the primaries. You guys should've chosen Lieberman. We should've choosen --- let's just say, "someone more conservative"....But, oh well.<br /><br />This misconception of yours is
rampant amoung libs, too! We are barraged by "bush and vacation", "Cheney and haliburton", to the point of hurling! We are left with no other choice but to defend our president to the last breath,if need be! So you get what you see as "marching in lock-step".<br />Wrong.<br />The ONLY things I personally march in lock-step with, is my country, it's popular direction, and the constitution...(you know, the life? liberty? the pursuit with twin yammies thing?).Esspecially, in times of war.<br /><br />
<br /><br /><br />BTW, to bring us back ON-TOPIC .....<br />Another "trait" of the left, is that when they get backed-into a logical corner durring any debate, they'll also sometimes resort to spell-checking and grammar correction of thier opponents, like a third-grade teacher on a student's book report ---- but with a great deal more condescension and vitriol.
