If by that he meant destroy this nation and its constitution then I guess he has successfully restored dignity to the Whitehouse. It’s pretty bad when truth is crying out to be heard and it is continually reduced to being liberal lies by those who claim to be conservative or even Christian. Those of you who support bush should all be ashamed. There is no real dignity among any of you. The following is not a pro Clinton or pro Democrat statement but simply a statement of fact and those who ignore this are hypocrites. These so called conservatives and republicans raked Clinton over the coals for his indiscretion with an intern. However, the very same people condone the murder of our citizens and Iraqi civilians, blatant lies from bush and his cabinet and a presidency that is extremely fiscally unsound with the underlying goal of raiding the nation’s treasury to benefit the rich and wealthy. The facts are all on the surface and bush supporters seem to enjoy having that knife further twisted in their backs by bush and his administration. Clinton screws and intern and the religious right wing of this nation think our country is going to hell in a hand basket. Bush screws over an entire nation and the republican party and religious right wing have no problems justifying and condoning their hypocritical actions and behavior.

I'm not sure where the Register columnist got the idea that Giuliani is a proponent of a "muscular central government" but Steve Forbes certainly isn't and he joined Giuliani's campaign. I also can't see anything but paeans to limited government on his site. I can’t recommend this article highly enough to understand how American conservatism has gotten sidetracked from liberty.

Maybe then you will turn to the Libertarian party, as they are the only party at this time that is fighting for your individual rights.

Things are NEVER as bad (or as good) as they seem. Sheesh. To think you require the likes of ME to remind you of that particular truth! Come now, folks.

What was I thinking??? Why did I let my neo-evangelical, right wing extremist, red neck jingoistic views get in the way of exercising sound personal judgement when I stepped into that voting booth? It is clear now that 21st century republicanism is just as evil as Islamic extremism. One side likes to murder people by flying jets into the twin towers and the other side likes to sacrifice it's own citizens by intentionally letting 9/11 happen as well as murdering our sons and daughters in illegal unconstitutional wars. 21st century republicanism and Islamic extremism are simply evil self serving twins. War, the destruction of American liberties and the consolidation of wealth into the hands of the greedy rich minority of the nation and large corporations are the real policies of today's republicans. It is clear that Bush / Cheney never had any real world foreign or domestic policies when they initially seized control of the White House. It is clear that everything that Bush / Cheney have ever had their hands into eventually turned to crap. Bush screwed over the citizens of Texas at every point when he was Governor of Texas and he has pretty effectively showed us what republicans can do to screw over the middle and lower classes of the USA along with the people of Iraq as President of the USA. I'll never make the mistake of voting republican ever again. Thanks for all the corrupt memories GOP...I'm now a Democrat.
