Howdy Baxter,

I'm afraid you're not going to get much traction trying to change the minds of my left leaning kin. They're enamored of their opinions but can't often support them with facts, logic or reason. That being the case they aren't inclined to listen to or respond to opinions that contradict their own.

Hey Michael,

I can understand this. I've read some discussions that seemed as though they enjoyed a good bru ha ha. The only time I really take these things serious is on election day. I feel that Bush has been very much misjudged by many not based on fact but complete fiction. Many peoples eyes are being opened each day to the merits of the values that made our nation great to begin with.

It seems that the more enlightened we become through liberal values, the less we want to let our children play in the park. We have protected the "rights" of a few messed up people to the point of throwing our society away. You see a man like Bush, who says what he believes (common sense which has become so uncommon) and does it to the delight of most Americans and you have to scratch you head at how some cannot see the value of returning to values. Hope you don't mind me sticking my nose in.

I don't object to anyone joining the discussion but I can't speak for anyone else.

I think the problem the ABB (Anybody But Bush) crowd has is that they've believed the fictions propagated by the democrat leadership and the MSM. If I thought the President had actually invaded Iraq to steal their oil and enrich Halliburton I wouldn't approve either.

Personally I disagree with about half of what Bush has done as President but I admire him for his being honest and forthright, and on issues that were particularly important to me (2nd Amendment, tax cuts, Iraq, Social Security reform) I do agree with his general direction at least.
