It's hard for me to know exactly what is the agenda of those who built the Bush Revealed.com site, Kelli. They could, as you suggested, are upset that their particular type of right wing X-tian fascism isn't being promoted by Bush and his many handlers. There are many reactionaries, such as the former GOP U.S. House member Bob Barr, who are upset about one's civil liberties being compromised under GW's P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act. He lost his seat in 2002 because he put up too much of a stink about that concern.

There is a slim possibility that the people in charge of the site are trying to light a fire under those conservatives who might decide to not vote this November, since conventional wisdom is that Bush will easily defeat any challenger from the Democratic Party, due to his "victory" in Iraq, finding Saddam, no terrorist attacks in the U.S. since 9-11, etc.

The ones who constantly live in fear of a takeover of "America" by women who wish to work outside of the home, environmentalists, gay people, and pro-child... pro-choice activists might be very worried about how the centrist Howard Dean is doing as his run for the White House could attract millions of middle-of-the-road voters who might support some iron-clad form of gun rights. That would take a huge issue off the table if the race were between NRA supporters Bush and Dean. I remember that organization squealing with glee after the Supreme Court voted GW in about how Gore lost in Tennessee by backing gun conrol, but I just don't really know about BushRevealed.com's intentions.
