The freepers will grin and bear it

[submerged99]

The freepers might react with anger but they really have no principles they believe in other than retaining power. Bush can say whatever he wants and they will simply grin and bear it.

1. Exactly. His base isn't going anywhere.

Plus, they know that he has a track record of promising one thing as a "compassionate conservative" to fool the sheep and then doing the opposite.

2. You'd be suprised.

The Freepers are in tizzies over Bush spending money on those poor black people.

8. Won't matter.

Bush isn't going anywhere. His base will continue to believe that we are worse, regardless of what Bush does.

3. They are already pissed, just in denial, this may put them over the edge

4. Of course

They are all about a sport team called "REPUBLICAN". Doesn't matter what anyone says about any issue, doesn't matter if someone suddenly becomes a New Dealer, it's ALL ABOUT WINNING AND HOLDING POWER.

7. I don't get this---BUSH is outta there.

He doesn't care. He's not up for re-election. So what do they even care about bush anymore, anyway? He's lamer than even normal lame ducks!
