		<description>I forgot how he want&#039;s to let illegal aliens who stole people&#039;s identities collect the social security earned in those false identities. Who arbitrates when the citizen claims the income as their own? Is the illegal assumed to be just as honest as the citizen?</description>

		<description>Bush took away many of the conservative arguments for supporting the GOP. Not that it means one should support the dems, but it makes it hard to make a case.

His Generals and his JAGs are going after our own troops.
Our guards in Gitmo and our troops are fighting with one hand tied behind their backs. 
He is overspending like crazy. Cutting taxes, yes, but handing over the deficit as a talking point to the dems.
He is pandering to Mexico. We have border agents in jail for shooting illegal alien drug runners. Those runners get Mexican legal aid and US immunity to testify. We are convicting agents SOLElY on testimony from Illegals.
He allows increased immigration and visas from muslim countries.
He has allowed women to continue to serve in harm&#039;s way.
His military has puffed up females in combat situations that didn&#039;t deserve it. AA is alive and well in the armed forces.
He supports castrating Israel.
He gives money to terrorists in Palestine.
He kept on liberal morons like George Tenet, and got screwed.
He hires asshats like Colin Powell who screwed him too.
McCain-Feingold is unconstitutional.
We continue to give the Chinese intelligence coups.
He is letting central america go socialist, a la Jimmy Carter.
He is about to screw Mushariff over and let Pakistan go crazy a la Carter, only this time, the Paki&#039;s have nukes.

So when I try to argue with a liberal that the dems are bad for us, they have plenty of ammo to use against me that I agree with.

Noonan is right, Bush has broken the GOP. The RINOs own it.</description>

		<description>Your joking right? Are you seriously trying to excuse the bill he pushed through? Did you read his writings on the subject in which he was almost in sync with GWB&#039;s feelings on the subject?

As I said, Reagan was a great President but in no way shape or form was he perfect. Neither is Bush. But both are great Presidents.</description>

		<description>Firstly the illegal alien count at the time of Reagan&#039;s amnesty was about 3 million. A far less intimidating number than we have today. Reagan&#039;s amnesty came with enforcement attached. In fact many of the unenforced laws that could be used to protect the border exist because of Reagan.

Reagan&#039;s amnesty with enforcement was a one-shot deal that was expected to end the issue once and for all. It failed. Its why we know to reject amnesty (even if it has a few trivial penalties to make it not amnesty, technically).</description>

		<description>Peggy Noonan lost it many years ago, and this latest column confirms it even more.

On the morning of the President&#039;s inaugural in 2005, she praised his address that morning on FoxNews. She continued to praise his speech later in the day. However, in a column the next day, she said the address was all nonsense with no direction. &quot;A mighty disappointment,&quot; paraphrasing her. What happened overnight? Was it envy that she didn&#039;t write the address, which was well received? Or, that she had become another has been speechwriter?

I think we already know the answer to these questions.</description>

		<description>And Peggy has been living in New York for years. She&#039;s probably tired of defending Bush and finds it easier to get along with her Bush hating lefty friends if she trashes him too.

I bet she gets more party invites after her latest column.</description>

		<description>Peggy has really disappointed me the past few years. I used to admire the way she used words and communicated her passion with them. But when I hear or read her now I feel disconnected from what she is saying.

I feel the same way.

I seem to recall Reagan promising to reduce the size of government; yet he expanded it by adding a secretary of veteran affairs to the Cabinet.

Withdrawing our forces when 241 American servicemen were killed in their barracks in Lebanon only emboldened Hezbollah.

There are a number of things you could be critical of Reagan for. For today&#039;s Bush critics who worship at the altar of Reagan, I think it&#039;s a rightwing strain of BDS that has afflicted them. The unrelenting criticism from the left has finally cowed them into distancing themselves from President Bush. For the purists, if they want to disown Bush as &quot;no true conservative&quot; and make the claim that Bush 43 &quot;destroyed the Republican Party&quot;, then he&#039;s in good company, with Ronald Reagan. What conservative will ever be immaculate enough, for them? The country is evenly divided 50/50. Political leaders have to work with that reality.</description>

		<description>I saw her on &quot;The Factor&quot; tonight with Laura Ingraham. It&#039;s been a few years since I have seen her on TV (she doesn&#039;t usually do Fox News) and her age is starting to catch up with her. She&#039;s 57 now. Last time I saw her she was wearing some leather bomber jacket trying to look young and hip.

Now, she&#039;s got a Margaret Thatcher hairdo and gone is the leather jacket.

I hope I will be able to enjoy her work again. She really nailed what it was like to be in the Regan White House.</description>

		<description>Probably a good explanation Mike. I loved her books on Reagan and you can tell she admired the man greatly, as should us all but the vitriol emanating from her on Bush is just so over the top its amazing.</description>

I&#039;ve noticed that many of the folks who were big stars during the Reagan era and afterwards have felt somewhat left out in the 21st Century Bush era. And I think it bothers them. Maybe they are just saddened that they are no longer in the loop and they take it out on Bush.</description>
