You know, the democratic and republicans mail them out to voters to give you an opportunity to tell them whats important to you. You check off how important the various issues are to you, i.e., strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree.
The ones I receive are from the democrats and they have a question about the war in Iraq.
It says:
"We were misled by President Bush and his administration into going to war in Iraq. Squandering lives and treasure by launching a preemptive war was a mistake. Further, the administration doesn't have a strategy for ending this quagmire. Diplomatic means should be fully exhausted before committing our country and its people to waging war".

And so, the democratic party wants to know our opinion on the war. Democrats could check the box, that they strongly disagree, and still be a democrat.
I just wonder if the republican questionnaire's offers the same choice?
Or is it a foregone conclusion that all republicans support the war?

It is a foregone conclusion that all republicans do not question the leader.

or think freely.

I don't believe we should be generalizing the republican party. I also can't see bush as representing the republican, he has abandoned the core ideals of the party for a neo-conservative outlook .
it's sad to hear many republicans support him when hes proved that hell go against their own principles and guidelines . At the moment with election drawing near we should be worried about what the Dem's are going to be doing, i wouldn't trust them either .

yes the majority of Republicans are supporting Bush in Washington,,, but only on paper,,,, the voters will decide about his Iraq invasion,,, and his war doctrine,,, anyone can change their voter registered card,,, or vote differently in the voter booth,,, or change their mind at any time as to party affiliation,,,
if you choose a party,, remember you can cut and run at any time,,,, your not stuck for more than 4 years for your choice for president,,, isn't democracy wonderful,,,, you don't have to stay strong to win the war on terror,,, brains are better than brawn,,,,

"...'Diplomatic means should be fully exhausted before committing our country and its people to waging war'."

The last sentence was left off. It reads: "And even then we should not go to war unless there is no other choice (and there are ALWAYS other choices)."

Ergo, war is never justified - under NO circumstances, ever!

All questionaires, Liberal, conservative, green, republican, or democrat, get an express trip to the circular file. They'll get my opinion on election day.
