"THE TRUTH"

BY: DR. FOREST LEWIS

By now, most of us understand that President Bush "Ain't No Ronald Reagan". We also know that Mr. Bush is not a conservative.

If Mr. Bush were a conservative, he would not hesitate to speak out on such hot button issues as:

- Immigration

- Gay Marriage

- Gay Civil Unions

- The Socialist News Media

- Affirmative Action

- The Loss Of Manliness In America

- The Control Of America's Universities/Colleges

   By Socialists and Communists Professors/Administrators

This column is not about "Bush Bashing," it is about how the President missed his opportunity to go down in American history as a great President, ala, Ronald Reagan.

Make no mistake about it, Mr. Bush has done some wonderful things. For example, he has been vigilant in protecting America against IslamoFascists. Something, the dimwitted democrats refused to give the President credit for. America has not been attacked since September 11th, 2001. You would never know that given the rhetoric from such naysayers as John Kohn-Kerry, John Murtha, Harry Reid, Howard Dean, Diane Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, et. al.

The President has also been wonderful for our economy. He hasn't gotten the credit that he deserves for our robust economy because "It Is So Good". The socialist media has refused to tout this accomplishment, because it goes against their agenda. However, if our economy was in the dumps, the socialist media would be all over the President, like fleas on a hound dog.

The President has also kept God in the forefront during his time in the White House; something that liberals despise. Liberals have a deep antipathy for the Creator. Liberals think they are "God".  If you carefully study their modus operandi, you will notice that liberals are constantly trying to "Save Us". Actually, what liberals are attempting to do is "To Control Us". They despise free thinkers.

A free thinker is able to see through their pathetic paradigm. A free thinker is also fiercely independent. Liberals on the other hand, love people to be dependent on them. They love welfare, affirmative action, and any other program that place, "We The People"  under their control.

No, Mr. Bush is not on the same scale as say, Jimmy Carter. However, as his time winds down in the oval office, I recently reflected on the many opportunities that the President has had to distinguish himself. However, rather than address controversial issues like, gay marriage, and immigration, the President has been noticeably quiet on these issues that conservatives are so passionate about. These are issues that conservatives and "Real Republicans" have waited for the President to take a proactive stand against. However, he has failed us.

Rather than addressing these important issues, the President has been reticent. Which signals to advocates of open borders and gay marriage, that the President is either with them; or he is not going to vigorously oppose their various harmful agendas. With the President being taciturn on these issues, it gives hope to forces who are determined to tear this country apart, that they can continue with their malevolent ways, because there will be "No" opposition coming from the Bush White House.  

While the late President Gerald R. Ford is being remembered today as a healer, President Bush is seen as being weak, or has a lais-sez faire attitude on the salient issues noted above.

Conservatives have not had a fighter in the White House in the past six years. We have watched as the President has been reactive on key issues, rather than proactive. We have watched him being pummel by the socialist news media; and socialist democrats for six years.  Mr. Bush has simply sat, and allowed these mean spirited people bludgeon his reputation and legacy. A conservative would have fought back, not with ad-hominems--but with intellectual toughness.

Kansas Senator, Sam Brownback said the other day that "values like opposition to abortion and gay marriage will distinguish him from others vying for the 2008 republican presidential nomination".

Brownback also had this to say. "I think there's room in the field for someone with full-scale conservative values: I don't think that end of the field's crowded".

Brownback is certainly right about the field not being crowded with conservatives. What is John McCain, Rudolph Guiliani, and Mitt Romney? Neither of the aforementioned presidential aspirants are dyed-in the wool conservative.

When one looks at the democratic side, we see such people as Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama. Now, we can add John Edwards, who has had cosmetic surgery to remove the mole from his face. Edwards has announced that he is running for the democratic presidential nomination. I don't know about you, but these are frightening people. But, so are the republicans, or should I say, RINOS; Republican In Name Only. McCain is all for allowing illegal aliens in this country, to enter on a fast track to citizenship. Guiliani is against citizens having the inherent right to bear arms; and he is all for Gay Civil Unions. Mitt Romney is trying to distance himself from the old Mitt Romney, who at one time supported the homosexual movement, reportedly in toto.

The question at this juncture is who will speak for conservatives and republicans? 2008 is not that far away.

This country is not only in need of another "Healer," America needs a President who is not afraid to speak up on issues that could morally bankrupt this nation.

Americans are politically sophisticated: therefore, "Wannabe Conservative Presidential Candidates," please stay at home.
