So the conservative CATO institute asks you “neo-cons” where’s the beef? Whatever happened to classical conservativism that limited the role of gov’t, and the respect that the system of checks and balances used to have? They are correct, WMD is the only reason why the US invaded Iraq, and no substitute argument is warranted. The lack of criticism from the right is disturbing, very disturbing. Even classical conservatives are speaking out of the lack of outrage from the more fascist minded “neo-cons”. You are seeing more and more power put into the laps of the presidents and a corruption of power is happening with the Republican congress not doing anything about it. This is a very un-American attitude, that if you are against the President and his policies you are being un-patriotic.That is contradictory to what your nation states as her basic ethos; the right to dissent. If you are a classical conservative you shouldn’t be voting for Bush, he is well beyond what you would consider a conservative. This election garners a certain level of magnitude and importance. If you are a Republican seriously think about where your party has really gone.
More conservative angst at this president and his actions: Yes the there are rumblings of mass distention, Mr.Bush’s address to the republicans in the house was a disaster from most accounts. Real Republicans seem to be disenfranchised and the masses have done their damage to the real conversativism that America used to enjoy. Bush’s policies seem to be reminiscent of a liberal dictator, who likes to spend a lot and do things without asking anyone. I have to give much Kudos to this admin. though they have been able to make criticism of their politics and policies into a attack against America. Sadly too many of the intellectually meek have taken this to heart. This admin. is slowly moving to a “hybrid fascist” model faster then we anticipated. Contrary to popular belief the right is not solidified, and it is fractious.
