"Responding to a humbling election, White House aides said Sunday that
President Bush would welcome new ideas about the unpopular war in
Iraq, even from Democrats he had branded as soft on terrorism."

hmmmm

Are these the same Democrats that want, "America to roll over for terrorists", "To appease anyone and everyone", "Talk things over with the world before making a defensive strategeryTM", etc.

Now these are some things that people on the right said about Democrats prior to this election and also the previous Presidential election. If this is your position as well, will you agree that if the Democrats' positions are good enough for "A war president", they're good enough for you, too? Or has Bush completely lost it now. Bigger government, higher deficits and now talking with Democrats about war strategeryTM? What's next? Smoking weed on Air Force One?

I am actually sorta happy the democrats won, the republicans in power were not conservatives and I am a conservative.

I think a lot of liberals DO want to roll over for terrorists, but as I said in previous posts I think the party leaders of the democratic party are smart enough to realize that if they play their cards right here they could hold on to controll of both houses and probably the presidency in the next election, as well as elections to come.

What I hope happens is this is a wake up call to conservatives and hopefully a new contract for America like back in 94 is made, and we get some good republican leaders back in congress that won't spend money like crazy, and have good strong conservative values.

You kind of sidestepped the question.

No matter what your opinion is about (evil, commie, pinko, terrorist appeasing) Democrats, now that Bush wants their opinion, is that still not good enough for you?

I guess I don't know what you mean, sorry.

A lot of people are afraid of the Democrats because some of their members' extreme views being portrayed as the views of all Democrats. I won't deny that some Dems (and some Americans) want the troops pulled out of Iraq immediately. I am smart enough to realize this is not a good idea, incidentally. This was played up pre-election (this one and also the last Presidential election) to rounds of applause at various campaign stops by either Big Dick Cheney or GWB.

Fast forward to Sunday night.

Bush is now meeting with the same people (about war plans) that were vilified before the election. If Bush is willing to listen to their opinions, then the same Americans who have been yelling about the Dems' blanket 'cut & run' policy (again, not true across the board) should be able to accept their opinions.

ooh right i schould have put (one of the most) in my sentence instead of
the most. we have a tax for this and a tax for that and then you pay it again and agian and again then when you die your money is taxed again,
I even just paid a tax/fee on the domain names i registered.All this for what a bunch of aholes in dc to write more laws because their not enforcing the ones already on the books. Then our government wants to charge us for taking an ambulance ride to a hospital, or to rescue someone out of lebanon. hey isn't this what we paid taxes for.
Fair tax charge every one poor, middle,rich
Don't get me wrong I love America, I just hate the IRS.
Sincerely,
WHACKO

You still got it wrong Ken_O, we are closer to being the least taxed country in the world rather than being closer to the most taxed.
Although I am sure that the new Democratic majority in Congress is going to do everything in its power to move us up in the rankings.

not when you consider the embedded taxes were also paying furnish a list

Theater. We aren't going anywhere.

Permanent bases all over the country. Largest embassy ever. That right there (alone) ought to tell the people a whole lot.
