Since when have democrats wanted to take away the 2nd amendment right?

Since before I was born.

It's NRA bullshit only criminals use guns on people.

I'm confused on this one. Are you saying law biding citizens are using guns to commit crimes? Umm, wouldn't that make them criminals?
Or perhaps you mean law biding citizens using guns to protect themselves and their family against criminals. What would you have them do? Talk to them nicely.

The Bush administration is enlarging government more than any administration in memory. Aren't they? Look at the spending. Look at the debt. And aren't they also for more government secrecy and less personal privacy? Not saying they're Big Brother but hey, some of it's needed post 9/11 but don't blame the Democrats

I think Bush has done a great job overall so far. With that said, I think he has made a few mistakes.

- He bailed out the airlines and I hear they are asking for more again.
- He created another bureaucracy with Homeland Security. We already have the CIA, FBI, INS, etc... Granted these organizations need work but that doesn't mean make the govt bigger.
- He is negotiating with Arafat, who I believe is a terrorist, after he made the proclamation against terrorism.

Universal healthcare might be a great idea if it could work right

Universal healthcare is socialism pure and simple. Socialism is always a bad idea. It takes away the rights and freedoms of the people. The Constitution spells out the role of the government. Look at Article 1 section 8. law.cornell.edu
