You're, of course, assuming that Bush IS a conservative,


Actually, no. I think I'm far more conservative than Bush in many
areas, especially fiscal responsibility. BUT, Bush/Rove do have the
adman repeat the mantra style down and that is what I cited when
using the phrase "Bush-like"


So "Republican culture of corruption" is a Bush-like mantra, right?

Yes it is,
and, frankly,
I'm upset with several things I see in the DemCamp including trying to use
tactics the Republicans have mastered without having the mastery. BoZo
the Dem party chairman was a huge mistake, imho, as the ONLY thing he knows
is negativity.

I'd love to find a candidate I can vote FOR, and I've said before on ROFF he
does NOT have to be a Democrat. That said, I think the last 5 years have
harmed my country more than any similar period in nearly half a century, and
I blame the people pulling Bush's strings.

I'm not anti-Republican .... but I admit 'you guys" are making it difficult
to stay that way ... I HAAVE voted for Republican, probably will again.

I saw somebody, a Rep that was the minister at Regan's funeral I think they
said, last night talking about the grave dangers we all face as a Nation,
because of Rove/et al seeing the demographic value of being 'faithful' ....
he said lots of things I agreed with, none I'd fight in a 'let's compromise'
environment, many of them 'anti this admin, but pro this country "... all
from a Republican's point of view. Let's face it, Tim, .... I admit that
the Dems have a BoZO chairman ... can you fess up to the fact that MOST
republicans are voting party line far more than what's really right? Come
on, you know it's true, don't ya?

Heah, here's another one from an interview on PBS a few days back ... it was
in my deleted files from one of the many many posts I write but never post.

On potential damages that could result from the inquiry into the NSA
surveillance, to that surveillance and to the nation, I present a Republican
:-)

"SEN. LINDSEY GRAHAM: All I can tell you is that the ultimate damage that I
want to avoid is a constitutional damage in terms of checks and balances. I
want to fight this enemy. I want to make sure our president and our military
surveils the enemy. I want to know if American citizens are collaborating
with the enemy. We can do that. We must do that.

But the biggest thing that can happen, to me, as a nation is that in the
process of fighting the enemy, we give up the processes that makes us free.

I think there is plenty of room for surveiling the enemy and providing
protections to American citizens who may be caught up in a network of
conversations. So there's a lot of harm that can come. There's two harms:
Letting the enemy know what we're doing. We need to make sure we don't do
any more of that than we have to. The other harm, equally important to me,
is that we destroy a constitutional balance that's worked for 200 years. "

I know Republicans that held their nose and voted for Bush. If the
Democrats can put up nothing better than Al Gore or John Kerry, the
Republicans will again take the WH

John McCain will probably be the Republican Party choice in 2008. Who
can the Dems put forth to beat him?

Only if he can avoid hunting trips with Cheney.

I tried to tell Wolfgang about the jokes, but he thought I was blaming
all this on Clinton.

McCain really hurt himself with me in the same way that Colin Powell did ...
that is, he proved to be more patriotic to the Republican Party than to the
USA .... he knew the Party was doing things wrong and still went along ...
on several issues.

He, of course, is now trying to distance himself from Bush as the later is
clearly a loser, but it's a bit too little too late to impress me. I can
say I 'agree with' more of what I've heard come out of Cain's mouth over
they years than disagree. His actions, post Bush admin, have, however,
caused me to wonder just how many faces he has, and which to believe.

I think he would be a good choice for 'your' Party and certainly several
steps up from the last one.


As for the Dems, I think they need to find direction rather than sulky
rebellion. I honestly believe that a man that got up there and made us
feel like he really wanted us ALL to be working together for a sustainable
future, fiscally, environmentally, and socially with room for all .... could
get most of the votes, regardless of Party.

Whoever the Dems put up, the Reps will personally attack, as a main tactic.
It's worked for them before ( Russ Limbaugh first showed them you don't have
to make sense or be right to get a huge following, if you issue permission
to hate ) and it will be hard to defend against that while still honestly
looking forward ( one reason the attacks work so well is they avoid issues
by side tracking them ). My fear is that the Dems will try to use what
they see as dirty Republican tactics this next time, but they don't really
have the skills and mindset needed to make it work, .... Rove is a genius
of division, nastiness, and hate and genius can't be found everywhere. Add
the clear danger of becoming like the enemy ( the danger we see every day,
here at home, don't we ) as we behave like him, and I hope the Dems choose
to fight FOR their traditional beliefs, and fight fairly.

I'm NOT optimistic about my country's future ...

I haven't researched the matter thoroughly, but I believe that senator
Graham may be the smallest (and least articulate) nation in the history of
the planet.

Yeah. No kidding......ainna?

Chaney was hunting illegally. He didn't have the required upland game
bird permit. Are you happy about voting for a poacher?

In the grand scheme of things, considering the mind-boggling, scandalous
illegality this administration is involved in, I guess not having the
required hunting tag doesn't rank very high. But it's indicative of the
sense of privilege and the basic incompetence of this crew. No doubt
Cheney will blame his lack of a tag on some pathetic, low level member
of his staff.
