Translation: "It's partisan if YOU raise an issue; it is NOT partisan when I raise it, for my motives are pure."
State EPA pick critical of Bush / Federal policies for gases, foresting misguided, he says: "Asked whether holding these views might cause conflict with the Bush administration, Tamminen said, 'If we have differences of opinion with President Bush, we have to voice that. It's not about partisan politics, it's about the environment.'' "

An excellent article on the destructiveness of the Democratic shortsightedness in blocking the judgeships, greatly weakening the power of the Presidency as an institution. It must be stopped. The easiest way, perhaps, will be for the Republicans to use their majority to change the Senate rules to forbid the filibuster of a judicial nomination and permit the straight up or down vote on each nomination, as the Founding Fathers envisioned.
Newsday.com - Judgeship Filibusters Are Not the Way to Go: "If Bush's judges are blocked, a precedent that disrupts our two-century-old system of checks and balances will have been established. And the inevitable future turnabout - when Republicans block the effort of a Democratic president to get his or her judges confirmed - will be fair play."

Iraq gets a flat tax. Maybe we need the military to impose a fair and just government on the United States. [Just kidding, all you idiots out there.] Read Jack Kemp's article.

Liberals still don't get it. Americans really liked Ronald Reagan. He did not do a snow job on Americans. His charm was unashamed patriotism, a boyish simple love for Nancy, focus on sturdy American values. As long as liberals don't get it, conservatives will keep on winning elections. My hope is that they never catch on, but like alcoholics continue to blame everything but the desire within to escape reality. Check out the next two links:

New York Daily News - Ideas & Opinions - Bill O'Reilly: Reagan flick puts liberals in spin: "Reagan flick puts liberals in spin
It is simply astounding that some people are spinning the Reagan movie controversy as a censorship issue. The usual left-wing suspects are screaming that the conservatives forced CBS to abandon the project. The New York Times editorialized: 'It should have come as no surprise that conservatives, protective of Mr. Reagan's image at all times, would launch one of the fierce assaults that have become so familiar whenever the right wants to scare the media.'"
Second Link
OpinionJournal - Thinking Things Over: "We hit a milestone in the culture wars last week with the internment of the threatened Ronald Reagan hit job. For once, perhaps for the first time, one of our pre-eminent cultural institutions conceded that the great unwashed had it right. Instead of wrapping itself in the First Amendment right to be irresponsible, the network looked for the least graceless way out."

Have these people no shame? Is power and position so important for Gore as to sell the very integrity of his soul? Does he not believe in a Last Judgment?
Gore Denounces Bush Administration for Attack on Civil Liberties - from Tampa Bay Online: "'They have taken us much farther down the road toward an intrusive, 'big brother'-style government - toward the dangers prophesied by George Orwell in his book '1984' - than anyone ever thought would be possible in the United States of America,' Gore charged in a speech. "

Of course. Liberal are generous with other people's money. This is the fundamental difference between conservatives and liberals. Liberals want to give YOUR money away.
OpinionJournal - Taste: "RED STATES CARE: In news sure to depress those for whom Republican stinginess and antipathy for the less fortunate is an article of faith, the Massachusetts Catalogue for Philanthropy has just released its Generosity Index 2003, which ranks states not just by how much their residents give per capita but also by how much they give relative to what they earn. As OpinionJournal.com reader Gabriel Openshaw pointed out to us, the resulting index shows that the top 20 states all went for George W. Bush in the 2000 election--while 15 of the 20 least generous went for Al Gore. Maybe, he suggests, the difference is that those in red states are more generous with their own money while those in blue states are more likely to be generous with other people's money. "

A Foreign Policy Choice (washingtonpost.com): "Polls show that the presidential pack is tacking toward the views of early primary voters, a majority of whom opposed the war in Iraq. The question is whether the eventual Democratic platform will be one that a majority of the country can support. 'Too many on the left seem incapable of taking America's side in international disputes,' warn the party policymakers"
I personally think that these candidates are incapable of putting America first, unlike democrats JFK, FDR, and especially HST.

The Democrats have said nastier things about honorable and decent men like Trent Lott and Clarence Thomas in order to destroy them personally, but they have no courage to touch a bum like Sharpton. Can you imagine what they would be saying if Republicans had a candidate 1/10 the bigot that Sharpton is?
Boston.com / News / Boston Globe / Editorial / Opinion / Op-ed / The race-baiter in the campaign: "Whatever sins Dean may have committed in his 54 years, he has a long way to go before he can touch Sharpton's repulsive history of racial demagoguery. For instance, did Dean ever go out of his way to share a stage with the likes of Khalid Muhammad -- a gay-bashing, Jew-hating, anti-Catholic racist -- or praise him as 'an articulate and courageous brother?' Of course not. But Sharpton did.
Nor did Dean -- or any other candidate -- ever go on the radio to demand that a 'white interloper' -- the owner of a Harlem clothing store -- be forced out of business, or whip up a racial protest that ended with seven people dead in a horrific arson attack. But Sharpton did."

NewsMax.com: Inside Cover Story: "One of Mellon's former bosses, New York Sen. Hillary Clinton, has been sharply critical of the Bush administration's policy in Iraq. Last week she accused the White House of trying cover up battlefield casualties and said Bush's decision to invade Iraq was 'the antithesis of the rule of law.' " Can you think of anyone better qualified, other than her husband, to know about the "antithesis of the rule of law"?
