The firing of 8 US attorneys. What a shock. I'm so angered and disturbed by this travesty of justice. Why didn't President Bush fire them all and hire new ones? No, he should have cleaned out as many Clinton cronies as he could have when he first got into office. He's been paying the price since then. How about this? He could fire them all now. And of course, pardon Scooter Libby while he's at it.
Obviously being defensive all these years when the media has attacked hasn't helped. So, the Democrats were allowed to make many false charges about a "Culture of Corruption" which of course anyone who was paying attention knew was "the pot calling the kettle black."
In the meantime, Tom DeLay will be defending charges that were brought against him about corruption. He of course bowed down and stepped out of congress. Why? Especially when he didn't do anything wrong? He complains about the "criminalization of politics." Why didn't he fire back? Why didn't he take it to every Democrat who actually had done wrong, and expose their tactics. Check out his article if you didn't read it already.

Now the Bush administration seems to be letting the Attorney General twist in the wind during all these recent accusations. The president all these years has tried to take "the higher road" morally, I guess. Instead of being defensive, he should have turned the tables on media and congressional thugs who kept firing at him.
And the "Right-Wing conspiracy" is alive and well? Wait, did Hillary Clinton really mean that as she complained about it in a recent speech? Didn't she mean "Left-wing" conspiracy? Let's consider charges against Republicans for everyday, not at all out of the ordinary political happenings. Isn't postmodernism interesting? A person can redefine anything benign, mundane, and commonplace and paint it as criminal, conspiratorial, malignant whatever you want. (Do we really want 4 or 8 more years of a Clinton? Especially the less likeable one? Come on, Hillary's quip here is pretty absurd and laughable.)
DeLay was on the Laura Ingraham show today, and was concerned about the direction of conservatism for the next several years. He said that unless conservatives get organized soon, we may well be seeing another Clinton presidency. Then why did YOU quit Mr. DeLay? Conservatives shouldn't quit in such a crucial times. Conservatives should be fighting back and fighting hard.
Negativity and defeatism do not define our nation. Conservatives are tucking in their tails, and sulking in their own self-pity. (Chad who commented on the last blog here, don't be discouraged-Repubs are still our best bet-we can't be isolationists). In the meantime, liberals own another kind of negativity and defeatism. Every day they are attacking the president. When will they actually have something to offer America other than I can scream and complain vote for me! America will vote for a positive agenda. America is still the "City on the Hill" don't give up on her! -Cal Samuel August
