Ticomaya, what more proof does there need to be that the Clintonistas have no conscience?

I see the conservatives, who preach law and order, now say the Clinton administration is their teacher in morality and ethics and will follow their lead.

To bad they couldn't follow other things from Clinton, like balancing the budget.

I would love to have the 90's Congress back, that did a few things constructively alright, such as a more balanced budget, welfare reform, and things like that, instead of endless investigations.

Chuck Todd

Quote:
predicted several times that if the Democrats won "control of Congress" and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) became speaker of the House, then President Bush's "approval rating will be over 50 percent by the Fourth of July next year." In fact, as of July 4, 2007, Bush's approval ratings are far below 50 percent. Indeed, a recent analysis by the weblog RealClearPolitics.com of national polls conducted between June 11 and June 28 placed Bush's average approval rating at 30.5 percent. Will NBC News question Todd about his inaccurate prediction?

It's not only the Bush deficit that subsequent presidents will be handicapped with.

I have a sincere question of the folks here who would describe themselves as Bush supporters. Forgive me if this has been discussed recently (a link to that discussion would be fine).

I realize that this thread and it's predecessors were the results of the last Presidential elections, but I'm curious about your current thoughts on GWB. Not Republican vs Democrat or party politics as usual, but GWB as President of the United States.

Does GWB still have supporters among the posters here to the point where he would be the candidate of choice in the next election? I know he's a lame duck... I'm asking a 'what if'. Do you think that he would face a primary fight if he were able to have a third term? Would he be the nominee?

Some of the candidates running now, I would have supported ahead of Bush the last time, so no, I would not support him in the primary, but if he was the candidate again against a Democrat, I would support him.

Do I support Bush as much now as I did??

I have to say no,I dont.
He has committed to many stupid mistakes and blunders for me to support him again.
I have just about given up on my support for him and most of his policies,especially the immigration issue.
I think he was wrong on that,and cant support him.
He has not controlled spending like he said he would,in fact he is spending now like a democrat does.
He was wrong to give up the fight for "privatization" of SS,even though thats not what it actually was.

He was wrong to not make the tax cuts permanent when he had the chance.

The list of things I thing he was wrong about is to long to type out here.
BUT,against the current crop of dem candidates,I think he would still be the best choice.
Against the current crop of repub candidates,I would not vote for him or support him.

BTW,I am neither a dem or a repub,but I AM a conservative.

Yes, I think he would face a primary challenge if he were running again, and I doubt very much that he would be the nominee. But I'd certainly vote for Bush if the alternative was either Gore or Kerry.

So Tico, failure and incompetance are the two qualifications you seek when voting for a president.

Come on, there is so much more: arrogance and illiteracy to name a few. Tico is not a two issue voter.

I believe Tico said he would NOT vote for Kerry or Gore already.
