    This is the first time, in my 52 yrs, that those "nobody's" like me...are actually getting pretty vocal about it.
    The first time?

    No wonder you're nobodies.

    lol...guess I deserved that.

    I should amend my quote...this is the first time "publicly" that we've been vocal about it, en masse. The "silent majority" and all that...

    Always a lesson learned along the way, even if it's an old one.

    "For evil to win, all that is needed, is for good men to do nothing."

    Conservatives don't like politics and govt. So, don't go into it.

    It left the door pretty much wide open...

    lessons...

    Conservatives go into government, then they become part of the government and end up being not conservative anymore.

    And conservatives keep voting for them.

    Ayup. It's a losing battle.

    I never really understood what liberals cry about so much. GOP does as much spending on social stuff as they do. I guess it's just they want the Demo's to do it instead.

    Or, it becomes about meaningless, but ever so meaningful "social issues of the day". We'll elect someone just because his skin is darker than the other guy, to prove we don't care about the color of his skin. Or we do care about the color of his skin, and figure that someone with that skin color needs to be president right now.

    And in the meantime...govt keeps growing, deficits keep piling up, debt becomes multi-trillions, and counting....

    Given another 100 yrs, objective historians will wonder at the absurdity of it all, and will end up falling back on..."I guess you just had to be there to understand."

    They'd be wrong tho, I'm here...and it's incomprehensible to me too.

    LOL I remember that Bush himself said he had a mandate in 2004... no conservatives seemed to be correcting him much back then. But hey, it's the fun of politics.
    Well, from my point of view, he was the only viable choice. can you imagine John sKerry as president?

    A lot of conservatives voted in the Dem primary. I had to officially escort several out of the caucuses who voted in the GOP primary. They ed and moaned and all where Clinton supporters, but at least I didn't take names and file charges. Although, looking back on it, I should have.
    Are you admitting to obstruction of voting rights?
