Republicans Who Support 'Anybody But Bush'

George Meagher of Charleston, South Carolina, is a veteran and lifelong Republican who, by his own admission, put his “heart and soul” into working for George W. Bush in 2000.

Meagher organized veterans and once proudly displayed pictures of him and his wife with Bush.

No more. Meagher may vote Democratic this fall because he’s fed up with what he sees as lies and deceit by President Bush and the Republican leadership in Washington.

“I should be all choked up at not supporting the President,” says Meagher. “But when I think about the 500 Americans killed in a war, with what we’ve done to Iraq and with what we’ve done to our own country, I can’t see any other way. Look at it. We’re already $2 trillion in debt. Something has to be done.”

Meagher is not alone when it comes to Republicans who are having serious second thoughts about George W. Bush.

1. See, some Republicans really do have brain stems!

Now if only some of my family members would get some...they still all hail Bush and his high court of idiots supreme.

2. We want Roy Moore to run as Republican President-steal Bush votes!

3. Hmm...

I don't see any way, short of stealing the election, that * can win. He lost the last time, and he's losing some of his previous support. I don't think anyone who voted for Gore is going to vote for him. And Nader won't get as many votes as last time without the Green party behind him and the repentant Nader voters not voting for him, either. Nader probably won't be on all the ballots.

4. Don't forget.

We should pick up about 8,000 votes in Palm Beach county without Pat Buchanan running.

5. Jews for Buchanan

You mean they didn't intend to vote for Pat? I'm shocked.

Nice call name BE.

6. My favorite part - read this - Pubbie congress critters defecting

"The defections aren’t limited to voters. In the last two months, a dozen
Republican members of Congress have told me they will distance
themselves from Bush in their reelection campaign.

At a recent GOP retreat, House Speaker Dennis J. Hastert faced hostile
Republican conservatives, led by Rep. Chris Cox of California.

At one point during a heated closed-door debate, one angry GOP house
member told Hastert: “We might as well have a Democrat in the White
House. At least we know what to expect from a Democratic President.”
