Being a Bush supporter on this board means you have to deal with the tinfoil hat types, the Kerry revisionist types (please don't pretend that most Kerry supporters are any different then Bush supporters in this reguard, they give Kerry every excuse possible), the I'm 18 and never had a job types, the Bush will destroy the world types.
Most conservative posters finally succumb to the onslaught of wackiness and leave the board. There is only so much time in the day, and some posters are not worth responding to. If someone really thinks Bush is going to lead to societies collapse, odds are you need to move out of your parents basement, but I'll not give their thoughts the time of day. If all someone does is post link after link after link with little thought, don't expect a lot of constructive response.
I have issues with Bush but none of them are your issues. Compassionate conservatism is expensive and without cuts in other government hand outs to expensive. Also Bush cutting taxes on lower income (yes lower income families) has put even more people into the 'I don't directly pay income taxes' department which I think is bad. All people should have a stake in the government and should have to pay for some of it, I think we all know what happens to children who are spoiled.
So if you want to argue Iraq, the war on terror, etc no I'm not going to say someone has a point, because I don't think they do. Hindsight is 20-20, and things are going as well as if not better then I would have expected. When I hear someone who was 100% against the Iraq war from the start say we should have gone into North Korea or the like, I know they are just looking for a point as if the tables were turned these same types would be saying 'What about Saddam Hussein!' just as loud.
