"It may be that some, perhaps Senator Durbin's office, feel I am just a critic or grump with nothing better to do when I correspond; actually, as someone who's held minor elected party positions here and there, and has long been associated with Conservative campaigns and interests, including across diverse socio-economic populations, I try my best to indicate what I as a USA national perceive through my own readings of bills, experience, and discussions with others of the everyday person variety...and just pass it on to leaders for whatever use or non-use they deem fit.

 

Myself, I'd say Senator Durbin's within PSA is essentially correct, and that steps have been taken to upgrade ethics regardless of partisanship. However, one hopes that at some point we're going to hear non-Conservative support for everyday growth opportunities in the USA without regard to who will apply or receive same; all some today seem interested in is this or that type of collectivization into large and sub-groups, and ANY collectivization where a government is sole arbiter of outcomes and inputs de facto is against Conservative free market theory and thus will not see me encouraging its support at-large.

 

I continue to hold forth hope Senator Durbin and other leaders will break free of divisive collectivisms long enough to realize that to date no relevant treaty or social labelling or rights or diminution of the USA/its troops has yet shown tether to their need or reasons their constituents appear to have asked them to do something about the status quo, and believing Conservatives to be the best promoters of social progress will support same and would not oppose even Democrats if they elected to offer more direct free trade, non-USA bashing ideas instead of just never-ending finger-pointing and promulgation of new rights aplenty for things which won't exist due to "appeasements" necessary on grounds only they can see. Playing to a daily litany of horror stories about how so many USA persons are crime subjects and need to be deeply watched (and Dems too watch, in fact often transcending any monitoring complaint they make re Bush) on top of seeking more subprime money or government housing ownership while they don't even want a defense budget to support State National Guard or Darfur et al if Iraq were left, plus inferring the diverse People in the USA don't deserve respect while inferring global insurgency and terrorism ebbs and flows at their will to oppose, some today appear stuck in a rut of contradicting the very enticement to be in the USA they say they want." 

 

I note that PFAW objects to companies getting immunity for past peeking under laws even Dems voted for or wrote which were found un-Constitutional by Courts; apparently though, so many Dems even eclipsing Bush with peek/taser/tow/ban/walk in on powers, partisanship obviously blunts PFAW words that telecoms complied with duties under law and should not suffer "jackpot, see if they'll settle rather than drag out!" suits from desperate filers and their hungry counsel. 

 

Lastly, MoveOn today emailed to say Iran is a good guy Bush just picks on to pick its oil pockets, "just like Iraq"; to same I replied:

 

"Latest malarkey from MoveOn; it's not like too many non-Conservatives were about to spend all that "war loot" on other than their own subprime and closed-opportunity collectivist interests, so why should we care what MoveOn thinks right there? Also, Iran DOES have a general history of Islamic militancy, and under Mymood Alibabjihad wants to be the Kim Jong IL of the Mid-East,  thus a direct threat to the ability of the USA to fuel its own defenses or aid any nations militarily if the diversity of oil producers...including Iraq which the USA DOES NOT CONTROL...basically is Communist China and KGB-led Russia (especially if in the latter their current president breaks his own constitution and runs a third time). Another simple fact: has doing things the non-Conservative, PFAW, MoveOn and similar ways led to greatness so far, or to something closer to ever-expanding foreign flexing the more we seem to roll over?"

 

I support President Bush in the pendency of 2008 elections, as he attempts to show we will engage any threats without hestitancy but seek at all instances, even from strength, to resolve matters globally in mutually respecting and growth-oriented non-violent ways which respect freedom.
