No, I cannot personally get reconciled with George W. Bush. I consider myself to be a moderate-but GWB has swung far right. I still hope/believe that he does...
My biggest fear now that George W. Bush has been re-elected is that GWB will "wreck" the Supreme Court. These are supposed to be a group of 9 experts that...

The Democrats sure have a long road back. I still resent that George W. represents a group that tries to impose their world-view on everyone else. They would...

The persist rumors of Mr. Ashcroft's departure have come to fruition. I believe the feeling of the administration was that he was a polarizing force and not...
