  • The Western Carolinian Page 5 Thursday, September 29, 1988 Bush: Conservative or Liberal? by Stephen Jones I think George Bush will be elected as our next President, so I felt it would be wise to review his record in order to gauge the direction he will lead the country. He has managed to condense the voters that elected Ronald Reagan twice around himself. He has done this by effectively voicing conservative themes and painting Michael Dukakis as an extremist liberal. Dukakis is not a typical liberal do-gooder, riding a leftist wave created by others. He is an energetic creator of that wave. He has eagerly embraced such subversive organizations as The Americans For Democratic Action, which is openly socialist, and The American Civil Liberties, which was founded by an acknowl- edged communist named Roger Baldwin. My most shocking revelation about Dukakis was from an 1985 article I read in which Dukakis bragged that at the tender age of 13 he had supported the communist takeover of Mainland China. I would like to say that conservatives need to be careful of both candidates. Bush blamed his 1964 Senate defeat on Goldwater conservatives, who he labeled "nut fringe zealots." The non-partisan Americans for Constitutional Action rated him at 83 percent in 1967, 77 percent in 1968, 69 percent in 1968, and 58 percent in 1970. This showed that he became consistently more liberal while in office. His record was mixed during his brief congressional career, but there were a few important votes I noticed. He co- sponsored the misnamed Equal Rights Amendment and the 1968 Gun Control Act, along with opposing amendments to stop abortion and to balance the budget. He currently holds a different position on all of these issues which leads one into confusion. I would add that as late as 1980 Bush still clung to his liberal positions of the 1960's. I guess a conservative has to hope that he has sincerely changed views or at least pragmatically altered them for political reasons. Bush has also been a powerful member of three elitist foreign policy groups that have done severe harm to America since the end of World War II. These include the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission, and the Atlantic Council. Leaders of these organizations have openly called for submerging America into a larger world government The most difficult part of writing this article was determining exactly where Bush stood on many issues. The Boston Globe newspaper stated,"Bush is as conservative as Reagan." A Gannet news service re ported stated," Bush is regarded as a moderate." United Press International reported Bush was "one of the mast liberal contenders." I am hopeful that Bush will be able to replace the two most liberal Supreme Court judges with men more in line with my view of the Constitution. Judges William Brennan and Thurgood Marshall will almost surely resign if Dukakis wins so they can be replaced by certifiable young liberals. They have openly stated they are determined to hold out until Reagan leaves. I think the replacements on the Supreme Court are possibly the most important issues of the campaign although neither candidate has addressed himself forcefully on the issue. Hopefully this article can help provide some element of information that would help an uncertain voter clarify who they intend to vote for. Rainforest continued Land is cleared to provide grazing area for cattle which in turn provide low cost beef for U.S. fast-food burgers. It takes five to 20 acres of converted rainforest to support one cow. Devoting 55 square feet of land for an eight year period produces one hamburger. Deforestation already causes several plant and animal extinctions every day. With present trends this rate is ex pected to reach several hundred extinctions per day in the next 20 to 30 years for a total loss of nearly one million species, one-fifth of the world total. Animal species particularly will suffer as a 10 percent loss of habitat results in a 50 percent loss of species. In attempting to formulate solutions to deforestation, conservation idealists are, in effect, asking tropical countries to leave untapped large areas of economic potential. For this reason, the costs of habitat protection must be shared internationally. Developed countries not only share the long term benefits of conservation, but with their demands for rainforest products, they are partially responsible for much of the deforestation. It is clear that some amount of deforestation and forest degradation will continue in the tropics, but through proper management, it should be possible to obtain the desired products from while still maintaining them as a sustainable resource.
