You're still using an awfully broad brush. The GOP is not any happier with Bush than you are. That was evident in the "bailout" vote, 2/3rds of Republicans said no.

Yeah well if the Republicans had split 50/50 instead of overwhelmingly voting it down it would have been passed in the early more obnoscious forum. The dems voted for it by wide margins both times.

Just trying to help you understand a little better there ace.:)
