Obviously we don't know who is going to run against him but the question stands.

Listen, strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some aquatic ceremony. You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart throws a sword at you!

Taxation WITH representation isn't so hot, either!

Well, here's to wishful thinking that the next candidates are at least 2nd amendment supporters.

I feel he has demonstrated strong leadership given the situations he found himself in, and I will continue to support his efforts and pray that God will continue to guide his steps.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
I'm more concerned with Bush's going along with the CFR bill which in my opinion is a clear violation of the freedom of speech part of the 1st Amendment.
If you don't like Bush, you will hate anyone else. (Just think if Gore were president now. We would be having sensitivity training about terrorists and seeing what we could give them so they would not hurt us.)
In 2004, the elected president will be either a Republican or a Democrat, not some third party candidate who is strong on guns. Gun owners will be less burdened by a Republican congress and president than by a Democratic congress and president. The 1994 Crime Control Act passed by one vote of a Democrat, Al Gore, who could never have been in the position to cast that vote if so many idiot gun owners had not voted for Perot. A Democrat WILL introduce legislation to extend the 1994 Crime Control Act, which is set to expire in 2004, and it is vital that we have a congress in place that will not extend it.
Vote Republican for president and congress, unless you KNOW a particular Democrat will vote with gun owners and to confirm conservative judges and vote against abortion. (There are a very few Democrats who are gun-firendly, and they deserve our support unless their Republication challenger is equally strong on the issues, then take the Republican.)
Vote for Bush (hold your nose if you must) and a Republican congress in 2004. We will have to get as much done as possible (or stop bad legislation) before 2008 when Hillary will run. (Can you believe she is the most admired woman in America? Is that a scary thought or what? That is the sickness we are up against. Think what damage a President Hillary and a Democratic congress could do!)

We need you to weigh in on Hairy and Gordian Blade's argument in the above replies. I lean on you as my forum expert on these matters.

"Seperation of church and state" is nowhere in the constitution-as a matter of fact, it is unconstitutional. The church and state dogma was created by the Supreme court, becaue the courts assumed the role of doling out and deciding what rights we can enjoy. The intent of the bill of rights, was to prohibit the federal government from legislating in those areas mentioned. The bill of rights was unecessary, because the main body of the constitution does not give the federal government the authority to act in those areas mentioned in the bill of rights anyway. The bill of rights was created as a sort of double protection.
But all of that has changed. Now, the federal government has assumed the role of deciding how and what rights we can enjoy(exactly the opposite intent of the bill of rights). The amendment reads that Congress cant establish, and congress cant prohibit. In other words, the federal government is to stay out of ALL religious matters. Seperation of church and state places in the hands of the federal government the "authority"(and I use that term loosely)to decide what is religiously "appropriate". Seperation of church and state is anti constitutional, cause it allows the federal government powers that they are clearly prevented by the constitution from having. RELIGIOUS ISSUES ARE MATTERS FOR THE STATE OR THE PEOPLE TO DECIDE!
I do agree with Hairy on Bushs "faith base" initiatives-but for different reasons. Nowhere in the constitution does it say that the Federal government can raise and collect taxes, and then dole them out for the purpose of charity.
The question is not whether or not the Feds can give money to religious organizations for charitable purposes, the question is why is the federal government giving ANY money to any organizations at all.

So, as the current lineup sits, Bush, yes.
Those people who see nothing but grey areas, no black and white, are lost in the fog.
That would be "and has a chance to be elected." That pretty much rules out the 3rd party types. I've said it before and I'll say it again, (and stand back for the broadsides)...a vote for any candidate other than Republican or Democrat (GAG..GAG..WRETCH..BARF) is a wasted vote,
regardless of how "good" it makes you feel or the "message" you think you're sending.
In Presidential elections, I've never voted anything but Republican and I ain't gonna' start now.

Bush a Christian. Hmph. Lots of people claim to be Christians these days. It's almost a trend, such as the half-hearted Patriot Lite that emerged immediately after September 11th and was gone by November 1st.
Show me the money. It talks and Bush walks.

What worries me most about Bush is that I get the impression that when it comes down to a choice of sacrificing a lot of liberty for a small increment of increased security, he will pick increased security. But when it comes to sacrificing a little PC for a lot of security, that's a non-starter for him.
As Exhibit A, I give you my experience last summer of being frisked "at random" (ha, ha) four times out of six flights during a round trip from NY to CA. That was after passing through regular security cleanly. Oh, did I forget to mention that on one occasion the security screeners were speaking Spanish to each other while doing the "random" search?
As Exhibit B, I give you the new system for tracking everyone's credit card purchases in a giant database. Just wait until the next Democrap administration gets their hands on that!
I'm tired of politicians on both sides of the aisle deciding that the solution to every problem is to take more of my liberty or more of my money or both.
