bigredbirdfan Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 We've had to put up with Bush / Cheney for eight years, maybe it's time for us to put up with a different party's style of leadership for at least four years and see where it takes us. Believe it or not John McCain is not George Bush and I consider privelaged to have had George Bush as my president. I am very conservative and haven't liked the excessive spending he has allowed Congress and don't agree with everything his administration has done (you won't every hear this from a Clinton supporter he did nothing wrong). But I can tell you this he has done all he could to protect this country and you should respect that and saying "put up with Bush/Cheney" rubs me the wrong way and by the way he was elected to eight years in office by the citizens of this country.

Danoinark Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Hopefully I won't have to find out. My whole purpose was to show how easy it is to criticize an opposing view if its not your own.

Not very convincing coming from someone who referred to Joe Biden as Joe Done Nothing Biden in a previous post. You want respect for your views but give none to the other side.

You want respect for your views but give none to the other side. At least I identify myself as conservative. And will you admit to being a liberal? You see then you get the respect. I will also admit I was wrong on my earlier post. He did unsuccessfuly run for President so I guess I better rethink my comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted September 1, 2008 Root Admin Share Posted September 1, 2008 Getting too personal guys. Stop attacking each other and address the issues. Don't shoot from the hip- it belittles your stance. I'm leaving this in Dan's hands for the next 24 hours. He has my blessing to do whatever to keep this civil.

I have no problem admitting to being a liberal. It is not a bad thing. There are good conservatives and bad liberals just as there are good liberals and bad conservatives. Those terms are simply labels. I am conservative about some things and liberal about others. Based upon your name I can assume we are both Cardinal fans but we know that some fans are polite and considerate and others are jerks. The funny thing is we do not know any of the players personally just as we do not know George Bush or Joe Biden personally yet we form these affiliations based upon preconceived notions. You can give your repect as you see fit and demonize those do not cheer for your team or political persuasion but in the end it does not make you right and them wrong.
