Could I just say duh ? Now that is on the record,

"People say, 'The country's divided; shouldn't he be less ambitious?' " said Grover Norquist, president of the conservative Americans for Tax Reform. "No. This is a Republican-majority country. He will govern as aggressively as in the first term."

Double Duh!!

But others are skeptical that after a bitter campaign, Bush will succeed in attracting significant support from Democrats. "Is it realistic to think that, after this nasty election, he's going to get everyone in the room and say let's hold hands and reform Social Security?" a Republican lobbyist asked. "I don't see it."

And neither do I. Look out seniors, you could be saying bye-bye to your social security.

In foreign policy, Bush's first term was dominated by the war against terrorism and the decision to invade Iraq. His second-term agenda, one official said, could be described as "pretty much the same - only more so."

Anyone want to play a game of who will we invade next? Maybe the Democrats really did need this lose in order to let America learn her lessons the bitter hard way.

Bush told at least one of them, Sen.-elect James DeMint (R-S.C.), that he was impatient to turn his agenda into policies and laws.
"Now is the time to get it done," Bush said, according to his spokesman.

What happens when you give a man like Bush unlimited power at his disposal? We shall see won't we? In the end, I don't think it will be a pretty picture.

"What the president is doing in fiscal policy is weakening the country, making us more vulnerable. It's so strange," said Sen. Kent Conrad (news, bio, voting record) of North Dakota, top Democrat on the Senate Budget Committee. "There's no free lunch, and at the end of the day our country will have a tremendous price to pay for this profligacy." Taken from this article.

Again you have to ask, how did this guy get re-elected? And will there be lots of finger pointing when it is all over with. You better believe it. I see lots of t-shirts saying, "Don't blame me I voted for Kerry." Start the screen printing people. We are stuck now. It makes me sick to my stomach.
