    Bush was the center. (none / 0) (#48)
    by Republican Michigander on Wed Sep 23, 2009 at 02:14:51 PM EST
    I'm pro-life and pro-gun as well. (Also against the death penalty)

    """I don't support the tea party, very limited government, English only, no gay marriage, loudly disrupting town halls positions of the right."""

    Tea Parties - Do you support tax rates of 45%+ which is the current state of a large number of businesses. Do you support a 12 trillion dollar+ debt. I'll concede that Bush was HORRIBLE on spending, and I ripped him in 2006 because of that opposing the Bush budget and supporting the Pence budget instead.

    English only - Why shouldn't government documents be in English. I'm Irish by blood. I don't speak Irish Gaelic in business, nor demand that that is how things are done. I have no problem with people speaking multiple languages, but people need to learn English.

    Gay Marriage - How about this compromise. Government gets out of marriage altogether? I do not support being forced to recognize gay marriages, but at the same time I'm more insulted by being forced to get a license for marriage. Government should be out of it, the rest of it should be decided by contracts.

    "Loudly Disrupting" - This is something from the Saul Alinsky playbook. The left's been doing this for years, especially against Bush. The right's doing the same thing now. It's not unique to any side outside of those who are not in power.

    Bush was the center. He was socially center-right, neoconservative on foreign policy (so was Bill Clinton), and fiscally conservative on tax cuts and far left-wing on spending. He also won because Gore was a gun grabber and because John Kerry was the worst possible "1st tier" candidate the dems could run in 2004 because of his 1972 Senate Speech.

    The problem is that the GOP lost a lot of libertarian leaners because of Bush and Congress on spending and Iraq. Bailouts and spending killed them, deserving so. As far as Iraq goes, politics stops at the borders and I'll comment publicly on that when its done.
