Remember the days when people calling themselves "conservative" were
AGAINST 
expanding the powers of the federal government to intrude into the lives

George W. Bush has made the terrorists stronger, their influence wider, 
their numbers larger, and their motivation to attack the U.S. and other 
western interests greater.  He has repeatedly abused his authority and 
violated his Oath of Office by turning his back on the United States 
Constitution; thereby surrendering to the terrorists by underming American

freedoms,values, and the very foundations of our system of government. 
Sup****ting Bush is treason.
