I think his point was not christian vs non-christian, but rather 'many complex issues' vs 'one moral vs immoral', where rove made this dumb down to about moral vs immoral.
If I understand his analysis, the strategy taunts at the heartstrings of the religious' mentality of good vs evil, and their necessity to put things in black and white, good vs evil.
got it thanks.Still in my view voted Constitution VS scrap paper.
I was wrong about trusting any party,what Republicans said they stood for,was a far cry from what they did in Wash DC.
My hope now is Ron Paul makes it,and actually achieves what those principles are,Bush & co talked it,I hope RP does it.
... but he has kept the terrorists out of America so well...
OK, I'll accept that. The terrorists attacked the World Trade Center near the beginning of Bush's administration, and he has kept them out since.
However, by that very same standard, the terrorists attacked the World Trade Center near the beginning of Clinton's administration, and he succeeded in keeping them out, also, until Bush failed to keep them out.
Moreover, the Clinton administration arrested those responsible for the bombing and they are presently in jail, while Bush has never found Osama bin Laden, and has all but abandoned the hunt in favor of blowing our troops and our money in a stupid and fruitless quagmire in Iraq.
I am astonished that anybody Republican or not could possibly still support Bush.
This is really hard to admit, but my real given name is almost like George Bush's. In fact, when his father was in office, I used to get many phone calls that were actually intended for the White House. Now I get e-mails that are intended for George Bush.
It's very funny at times, but my name has also been a hinderance when I've tried to sign up with Democratic groups as a volunteer. (They just don't take me seriously when I sign up as Georgina Bush.)
At any rate, people still support George Bush. I got e-mails about Fred Thompson that weren't intended for me. I guess *those people* intend to support Fred Thompson. They wanted their wives to have lunch with Laura too. (I know this because of my e-mails.)
I don't really want to change my name, but I live in Southern California and I'm an ardent Democrat. Having this Republican name has really hindered me since no Democrat (and you know most in power around here are Dems) ever calls me! I'd like to be a personal assistant for someone like Leonardo DiCaprio -- but do you imagine him hiring Georgina Bush? The Democrat Georgina Bush??!! The only people who ever call to hire me are Republican cheapskates!!!!! I'm really sick of it!! (And those freakin' Republican cheapskates also manage to try to lean on me regarding legislation too -- like I can really do something about it. Give me a break.)
