Deborah Durkee br> Marietta, Georgia /p> p> DISRESPECTING BUSH br> Re: Quin Hillyer's Conservatives Must Rally : /p>

Quin Hillyer thinks conservatives should rally behind George W. Bush. Why? In November 2004, George Bush was reelected and the House and Senate were controlled by Republicans. George Bush was given a mandate to govern with a conservative agenda.

But, George W. Bush turned his back on conservative principles. He chose to embrace the politics of our enemies; Teddy Kennedy and his ilk. He went along with outrageous congressional spending programs. He has been in the forefront in favor of rewarding illegal immigration with citizenship. And, he has blown the war in Iraq, and who knows where he is on the war on terrorism.

George Bush is not a conservative, Mr. Hillyer. Conservatives should not rally to support Bush as you suggest. Conservatives should disassociate themselves from George Bush. Communicate to the world that he is not one of us -- because he's not!

p>George Bush is now being stomped on by the Democrats and the media -- the people he longed to cuddle with. He deserves all the disrespect that he is getting. br> -- Jack Hughes
