The Conservative Case Against George W. Bush
Here's one of those articles to send to your conservative, Bush-loving friends and neighbors. It's written by a conservative in a very sober, matter-of-fact style, and is called "The Conservative Case Against George W. Bush." Here's the concluding paragraph, which (as it states) summarizes the whole article very nicely:
To sum up: Anything beyond the limited powers expressly delegated by the people under the Constitution to their government for certain limited purposes creates the danger of tyranny. We stand there now. For an American conservative, better one lost election than the continued empowerment of cynical men who abuse conservatism through an exercise of power unrestrained by principle through the compromise of conservative beliefs. George W. Bush claims to be conservative. But based upon the unwholesome intrusion into domestic life and personal liberty of his administration and the local governments who imitate it, George W. Bush is no conservative, no friend of limited, constitutional government—and no friend of freedom. The Republic would be better served by his defeat in November.
