Fair enough, and you and I agree. My overall point in the post was that its unfair to single out Slave as a Bush supporter.
FWIW, I think the social policies of both parties are totally fucked up. The Republicans have compromised for so long that they have forgotten where they stood originally. Which is exactly how we get to the spot where Atticus can sit on a stoop and make fun of them for endorsing measures that are at-least-arguably anti-states-rights. Or for coming up with expensive Medicare programs. Or absolutely insane drug enforcement policies. Or...
