Who is the biggest wimp on that graph?
Amen!
It's not valid unles you also know the composition of the House and
Senate for cross-comparison...
An excellent point.
Instead of looking at the composition of the House and Senate, let's
first look at the results:
1. Largest growth in federal spending in almost 40 years.
2. Another war on an undefined enemy.
3. Federal survillence of US citizens increased.
4. Police state powers increase.
5. Massive increases in entitlement spending.
All these laws, entitlements, etc originate in the House or Senate.
Bush can approve or disapprove of them.
Republicans are the party of smaller government, self reliance and
freedom.
Bush is either not a Republican or a wimp.
The choice is yours.
Amen!
PS I saw a giant Texas style beehive last night at Costco on an old
blonde. I laughed and that of you. If I only had a camera.
Glory!
There are no checks and balances when all branches if the government are
on the same side...
Since Congress is also Republican, and he is not vetoing them, it means
that Congress has also drifted away from their own identification...
How can you say that, Katy? Kennedy, Johnson, and Carter all had
democratically-controlled Congresses during their terms in office, and
they exercised their vetos a number of times.
Bush has completely lost perspective. He is pandering to those who
wouldn't vote for him under any circumstances. I think he's doing this
to attempt to improve his approval ratings. Foolish move, as his
ratings haven't improved among those to whom he is pandering, and
they've fallen precipitously with those of us who mistakenly took him to
be a conservative republican.

None of them had anywhere near the number of their constituents in
Congress that Bush has. The problems in this country need ro be klaid
down to all involved, not just one person. Congress is every bit as much
as fault as the President...
I'd agree with that, Katy, except for the fact that the Prez is supposed
to fulfill a leadership role, especially when Congress is largely
favorable to him. He is pandering to Congress, too.
By the way, W passed within ten feet of me today. Motorcade drove by at
twice the speed limit and all the affected streets were closed for almost
an hour. The big limo with the flags has such dark windows--I suspect the
Prez was riding in any of the other vehicles, including the truck that
looks like a swat team vehicle, rather than his limo. Security.
