Actually, no. This is a matter of national survival. If the WH is able to pressure the House into accepting amnesty, then GOP House members are toast. There are people who were not just precint workers in '04, but actual electors, that would be supporters of articles brought by Dem House managers in '07.
Bush hasn't really appointed any strict constructionists either. Roberts and Alito had record and rhetoric of defending Roe v. Wade or abortion legislation, and Alito's first supreme court ruling cancelled the sentence of a convicted rapist.
