All it takes is a search.
Unless you are excluding me, your search of my posts will show I strongly supported the administration's foreign policy, the war, Bush's straight talk and my defense of his intellect. When it came to fiscal policy, other than tax cuts, I was not in support of all of his spending initiatives or those acted on by Republicans in Congress. When it came to issues like executive power I was very clear on my positions, indicating that Bush was basically giving Congress the finger. When it came to issues like the Valerie Plame issue, I clearly acknowledged that I thought the Bush administration had an agenda with Plame. When it came to issues like the intel used for war, I clearly stated that Bush "sold" his case for war, and that anyone who supported the war based on his speeches, or his people on talk shows, either did not do their homework or are foolish. On issues the the "politicization" of the AG office, my position was that the AG office has always been political and used by the office of the President for his agenda.
I think there is a big difference between what you will find in my posts relative to those who post in support of Obama.

Congratulations on having a Democrat patsy to blame everything on.

After 8 years of having Bush blamed for everything, I find it refreshing to blame Obama. But, unfortunatly Obama is not making it interesting - it is too easy. Just like the fact that he is sending his daughters to a private school in Washington but now is denying that privilege to underprivileged but high performing students in the DC school system. It is unbelievable, simple unbelievable. But what is worse, is how Obama supporters ignore this or try to rationalize it.

That must feel good. Sorry about your party being in shambles, but at least you've got a place to point your finger so you can keep it pointed away from yourself.

I have not always been a Republican. I was once a Democrat, a Libertarian, I once voted for Ross Perot and when Reagan ran, I actually voted for John Anderson. I thought the Republican Party reached a low point during the impeachment of Clinton. My loyalty is more to what I believe than to a political party. I did not support John McCain at all.
