George W. Bush won’t appear on any ballot this November, but it’s becoming clear that Democrats intend to make the Nov. 7 election a referendum on Bush.

The same crew that wouldn’t accept defeat in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections figures it will take another shot at Bush in 2006. Blaming Bush for everything that ails the world is much easier than coming up with legitimate reasons to ask voters to support your candidates.

Aided by their allies in the mainstream media and bankrolled by far-left billionaires, the Democratic Party, the perennial bridesmaid for the past 10 years, could make a comeback in 2006.

Never mind that the Democrats have lost seven of the last 10 presidential elections, lost every congressional election since 1994, lost the majority of governor races and now find themselves with five Republicans on the nine-member Supreme Court.

The midterm elections are eight months away, but Bush-fatigue has set in and Democrats are primed for a comeback. The economy is sound, there have been no terrorist attacks on U.S. soil for more than four years and the Supreme Court is no longer tilting to the left. But there is still an uneasiness about George W. Bush. Democrats will attempt to take advantage of the president’s declining popularity.

The knee-jerk reaction is to want something new. Change is good, right? But voters should be leery of Democrats. Before jumping on the "give Democrats another chance" bandwagon, think about what the party would do if it returns to power. The midterm elections could have grave consequences for the future of the United States.

Follow through with this nightmare scenario: If Democrats regain control of Congress, they will immediately move to overturn everything Bush has pushed during his first five years in office. Say goodbye to middle-class tax cuts. Say hello to a massive Democrat-backed tax hike. Say goodbye to mainstream judicial nominations. Say hello to more Ruth Bader Ginsburgs, the ACLU representative to the Supreme Court.

With Nancy Pelosi as speaker of the house and Harry Reid as Senate majority leader, the cut-and-run brigade will push to abandon Iraq and Afghanistan. That will embolden our enemies. The reason 9/11 happened was that Bill Clinton failed to respond to a half-dozen terrorist attacks going back to the first bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993. Osama bin Laden sensed weakness in American leadership and struck on 9/11.

Look for more attacks on U.S. soil if Democrats regain control of Congress.

On the domestic front, Democrats have no agenda. Their solution to the Social Security crisis is to oppose whatever Bush offers to solve the problem. Their answer on rebuilding New Orleans is "Bush caused the hurricane to hit the city." The alternative to oil dependence is to prevent any drilling for oil and gas on U.S. territory. But one thing Democrats will push is the impeachment of George W. Bush (and Dick Cheney, too). If there’s one thing that gives Democrats nightmares, it’s the prospect of Dick Cheney as president. They can’t very well impeach Bush if Cheney is his successor. So the Democrats will impeach Bush and Cheney.

Meanwhile, Osama bin Laden will emerge from his cave and lead an even bigger assault on U.S. interests. The war will spread to the oil- rich Gulf states. Militant Muslims will attempt to destroy Israel.

Where does that leave us? With oil cut off and Israel forced to use nuclear weapons to defend its existence, President Nancy Pelosi will have no choice but commit the U.S. to an even bigger war in the Middle East. Over the objections of Secretary of State Cindy Sheehan and Secretary of Defense Michael Moore, Pelosi will have U.N. Ambassador Jimmy Carter ask for a Security Council resolution to begin an all-out bombing of at least a half-dozen countries in the Middle East. The U.N. will turn us down, of course, with the Islamic Republic of France joining with other members to reject intervention in the Iran-led final solution of the Israeli problem.

Pelosi and her war council -- Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, Dick Durban, Barbara Boxer, George Clooney and Sean Penn -- will come to the conclusion that the U.S. will have to go it alone in the war. This time, our enemies will be a true axis of evil: Iran, al-Qaida, Hamas, Syria, Iraq under the reinstated dictator Saddam Hussein and Afghanistan, back in the hands of the Taliban. World War III? You betcha. And our casualties won’t be 2,500. Multiply that by hundreds of thousands. Maybe millions.

If you think Nov. 7 is an opportunity to kick George Bush around some more, think twice. A weakened United States at home and abroad will have deadly consequences for all of us. That’s what’s at stake if Democrats regain control of Congress in November.

Don't look now but there have been NO successful attacks against the United States since 9/11/01.

Don't look now but the NIE made it perfectly clear that defeating terrorists in Iraq would take the wind out of the sails of terrorist recruitment.

Don't look now but the United States was not at war with ANY Islamic nation during the period of the Clinton disaster when terrorists were attacking the United States at will and THIS period was the period when most Islamic terrorists were recruited and trained.

In fact, United States military personnel were fighting in Europe ON BEHALF of Muslims who were being subjected to a genocide.

You've got that right jwhop. No one makes a peep about our US Military being involved all over the world in order to ensure safety and peace. What we hear is nothing by whiney leftests wanted to defend terrorists or grant them specific rights, but not because they have a humantarian bend, but instead because anything that is Anti-Bush sounds like a good path to follow.

I wonder how many of these people fought on behalf of human rights for the hundreds of thousands killed by Saddam BEFORE we went to war?

Let me take a wild guess here Pid and attempt to answer your question.

NOT ONE

The most virulent attack on the Butcher of Baghdad...Saddam Hussein I've seen here came from acoustic.

"Saddam was not a good leader for his people"

Hello!! The very same thing could be said about Neville Chamberlain.

To try to imply that Democrats are less humanitarian is absurd.

Remember our friend Tom Nagy? You considered him to be of the left, and what was he trying to do? He was trying to save Iraqi lives prior to the war.
