Is this "if you're not with us you're against us" mentality what the Republicans have brought us?

I understand a government's need for national defense. What I don't understand is why this administration has chosen the path of going out of their way to make enemies instead of going out of their way to make allies. What I mean by that is, it takes compromising to make allies. This administration has no desire to compromise. Not in it's policies here at home and not in it's foreign policies. Why does this president and vice president have so much unchecked power? Dick Cheney says that the vice president's office is not part of the executive branch. Well which branch is it then? It certainly isn't the legistlative branch, the Vice President does not makes the laws. It certainly isn't the judicial branch, he does not administer justice.

You know, one argument I always hear conservatives make is that presidents should not be judged in the now, that they should let the history books judge them. I agree. Let's let history judge him. The man who has led us into the most national debt since Ronald Reagan and the man who has had the most irresponsible foreign policy since L.B.J.
