G H W I never met a spending bill I didnt like Bush is the renegade
Republican, my friend. USD 500B deficits as far as the eye can see, more
government, more spending on social welfare programs, more intrusions into
peoples private lives, more legislated morality, more war on drugs, more war.
No thank you. I may actually have to vote Dem this year... probably not, but Im
pretty underwhelmed by Jr.
What happened to the party of limited government, of states rights?
This isnt just me gibing.. everyone has noticed it. It made the back page of

Theres barely a speech by President Bush that doesnt cite the glories of
human freedom. Its Gods gift to mankind, he believes. And in some ways this

a reinvigorated House that remembers why the voters elected the GOP back to the
House while defeating Jr. doesnt scare me as much as the thought of a President
Bush with a cowed House that thinks its beholden to Jr for being re-elected.
I cant believe I just typed that, but there you are. Its not nearly as good as
a Libertarian regime would be, but I like it better when the country is
gridlocked than when one of the current parties runs rampant. Or should I say

Was he deceived by his own scientists? (...) Not so sure. A (...) (20 years ago, 11-Feb-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
