    Unfortunately, Bush's fellow Republicans are not acting out of concern for the nation.
    Bush's fellow Republicans are starting to worry that the public might wake up, see Bush and his fellows for the short-sighted, greedy charlatans that they are, and send them packing. They are more concerned with the very real possibility they might lose power in the upcoming elections instead of what will happen to average Americans ten to twenty years down the road if current policies remain intact.

    The current members of our administration, like drunken teenagers, are perfectly willing to grab the wheel, steer for the nearest telephone pole, and then blame someone else for trashing daddy's car. Regrettably, the actual number of principled conservatives in today's Republican Party can be counted on one hand. Most of them aren't the least bit concerned with the future. Apparently, the majority of Republicans spend their time figuring how to reward their contributors and screw their enemies.

    Which includes working class Americans, IMHO.

    :m: Peace.

    The Bush Administration's credibility gap is going to haunt the GOP, and the USA for a very long time. It is gratifying to watch both patriots and rats jumping off the neocon wagon, now barrelling toward a crash.

    Haven’t Republicans always been about figuring how to reward themselves & their contributors? While playing to their constituents’ fears? They’ve just carried it to an art form nowadays. I think the average American 10 years from now will think Bush was a demigod. Most will not connect a deficit to his actions any more than Reagan’s were. Nor will they connect his explosion of personal wealth to Iraqi oil and environmental damage. Realistically (not pessimistically) Bush's fellow Republicans have nothing to worry about.

    I was thinking today that Clinton screwed the Dems when he all but ended welfare. See, the Reps bribe the farmers to get the rural vote. But the Dems stopped bribing the welfare moms and their live-in boyfriends. That gave the edge to the Reps.
