Answer 1

I'm a conservative, and I'll tell you why I support GWB, he is doing the best he can in his situation. He is deep in a hole and his doing better than most would do in trying to get out of the hole, of course many things keep him there like constant harrasment... I respect him for that.

Answer 2

1. He's honest.
2. Liberals hate him
3. He has conviction
4. He has character
5. He has been right so far about almost everything.
(Including Iraq.)
6. Our troops support him, so to support the troops you have too
support the Prez.
7. He sticks to his guns and doesn't govern by polls
8. The Honesty thing is a big one so I'll mention it twice.

Too bad his stance on Illegal aliens sucks. He'd be even better.

Answer 3

I don't love GWB, but I respect the office of the president.

Answer 4

I think that you mistake love and admire for blind loyalty to the party, for repuglicans the party is more important then the welfare of the country. It isn't the like Bush because nobody could at this point, it is about not being able to admit that they were wrong.

Answer 5

Liberals hate him, and that is good enough for me. He is solid gold.

Answer 6

Closeted homosexuality. For real.

Answer 7

because the liberals don't

Answer 8

Con's support Bush because he leads them in their plunder paradigm. Liberals, you see, tend to believe in the social contract, that we are stronger as a nation when we empower each other and conduct our government for broad social benefit rather than for individual benefit. Conservatives, on the other hand, operate from a lower level of human development where individual empowerment means "survival of the fittest", "might is right", "a sucka's born every minute", "dominion over the planet means plunder rather than guardianship" and "me first". Genecide, rigging elections, gerrymandering, lying and torture are ok by their so-called "values". They believe that the end justifies the means. Liberals do not. Conservatives have never believed in the American Dream. Since the beginning of this this nation, the dream to be free and have a fair chance has been under attack by the Conservative's belief system. Conservatives do not believe in the U.S. Constitution, unless it serves their self-interests. Liberals look out for each other's rights in our pluralistic society. Conservatives do not. Conservatives do not care for anyone but themselves and their own viewpoints, their own religions, their own bank accounts. They are not believers in the common good. They plunder, even from the weak. They do not care about their own neighbors or their own communities or people who are different than they are. They prefer to live in gated communities and build massive fences and walls. They relentlessly strive to disenfranchise as many people from the American Dream as possible. Per Supreme Court record, they fought against Americans who wanted slavery abolished and abstain even to this day from international efforts to fight slavery around the world. They fought against black Americans who wanted to vote. They fought against female Americans who wanted to vote. They fought against Americans who wanted to keep church and state separate. They fought against older and disabled Americans who wanted American public restrooms and sidewalks to accomodate wheelchairs. They fight to this day against a decent minimum wage and a forty-hour work week for American workers. They fought against American children and forced them to work like slaves in factories and mines. They fought against American children and spent our money making arms dealers rich while taking money away from the public school system. They fought against working American mothers who needed equal pay and decent childcare. They fought against hungry American babies and slashed preschool nutritional programs for the poor. They fought against pregnant poor Americans and slashed prenatal care programs. They fought against American healthcare professionals who were struggling to stop the spread of AIDS and they blocked the distribution of condoms that would have saved millions of American lives. They fought against American homosexuals who wanted to be able to rent a house or an apartment and live together in peace. They fought against American police organizations that pleaded for a ban on the guns that slaughter police officers and over 40,000 Americans every year. They fought against Americans who tried to protect people from pollution and poisons that are being put in the air and water, by conservatives, mostly. They fought against every American in court who has struggled to protect our freedom of speech. They fight against Americans who want the Internet to remain free. They fight against Americans who want peace and they fight to protect their right to profit from war. They fought against a common ground like this Yahoo site, a common ground where people from all tribes and nations of the world could gather and share ideas and problem-solving, the United Nations. Their vision has plunged this nation in horrible debt, set back science and technology and our national math and science scores to the point where our young people cannot even pass the new global job market tests while they pandered to fringe religious groups for their votes, sold us out in NAFTA based contracts that thus far have benefitted only a few and have divided this nation in order to plunder even the future of our children. Their greed and narrow-minded short-sightedness has had dire consequences, as evident by communities collapsing under their plunder of the social fabric. For example, they tolerated criminal inviting and hiring of Mexican workers who came to live and work in their communities and then treated them second class citizens, paid them poverty wages just to avoid having to pay Americans a legal and decent wage, and then, when their communities collapsed under the folly of that irresponsible, indecent and incompetent community "planning" and plundering, the cowards blame the Mexicans! Conservatives feel nothing but contempt for compassion, as evidenced by their phrase, "bleeding heart liberal". Their's is a morbid paradigm.
