El President is giving me moonbat fever (FR mentioned!)

[Cheapskate]

Has Dick Cheney publicly come out in favor of the amnesty bill yet?

I know other minons have,But I haven't heard or seen anything from the VP yet.

[mcshot]

Yup, he took the oath as President and has now dismantled it.

[Porterville]

Take you whiny social issues and scream about your injustice... waa.

He got the justices in place and may get a third, A larger impact on the court than any other conservative president
period.

No amnesty bill will pass; so whiners are just whislteling bs in the wind.

[alicewonders]

Cheney has been very quiet on this - I’ve heard nothing from him about it. This latest turn of events (the illegal immigration bill) is very disturbing to me. Something in my perception has changed & I can’t quite wrap my mind around it yet.

[AmericanInTokyo]

I know LadyNavyVet, I know.

Thank you for the service to our country.

I was not with George Bush in 2000 in the General--but was with a conservative party alternative, but I was in fact in 2004 *mostly out of fear of Kerry rather than support of Bush. Boy was I ever wrong.

One thing I can see is, Bush has screwed many things up, and has been an extreme disappointment. We need to express that through this forum, through failing to contribute to the RNC when they call and letting them know, in FREEPING THE WHITE HOUSE (I will be happy when that one takes place) and otherwise making the failures of this President with respect to our border security and national sovereignty, a MAIN ISSUE within the Republican Primaries next year.

We need a CLEAR BREAK in the Rank and File GOP from this President, and NOW. He is selling us right smack down the river and personally insulting us in the process. Enough!

He got the justices in place and may get a third, A larger impact on the court than any other conservative president period.

I, too, am happy about the President's Supreme Court appointments, but I don't think either one has really been "tested" yet, have they? The way Bush is acting right now - I don't trust him one bit - I hope we don't have any more "stealth" or manchurian judges. I'm very concerned right now, I don't think our leaders have our best interests in mind at the moment.

The "deranged" are Bush advisors who keep telling him the GOP doesn't need the support of the conservatives any longer.

"As your chief advisor, Mr President, may
I remind you that the GOP doesn't need
the support of conservatives any longer."

[HonestConservative]

LmBO:

A very very small Mr McCain. (get used to the “Mister”, McLame you arrogant self important.....

“How many Bush supporters does it take to change a light bulb?”

“Both of them”.

So funny it needed to be said again.

[Porterville]

I think George will get a 3rd Supreme. I read in an article last night that he is offering an alternative to Koyoto to split the G-8 summits into two groups (great if true) and throw off Koyoto for years.

Immigration is still born. Is is now a dead issue like the Myers debacle; Bush is stubborn and is overly emotional. But, it seems he always returns to the base i.e. Roberts, i.e. Saddam, i.e. the next SC choice.

[TommyDale]

LOL! Those deranged people may also be these blinded Bush supporters who think he walks on water. While we have supported him for years, through thick and thin, the time has come that I no longer have confidence in him. He should have kept his mouth shut rather than bad-mouth those of us who adhere to our conservative principles. Just because he sold out doesn’t mean we will!

I watched in dismay while the dang mCcain-feingold fiasco passed and bush signed it.

[VOA]

Its sad because I really like the President and admire him on
many things.

You are not alone in that sentiment.

On the illegal immigration issue, maybe Dubya does have a grand
strategy for knitting together North America from the northern
reaches of Canada all the way down to the Panama Canal (and
maybe further).

Maybe he has a great and realistic approach and understanding it
is just above my paygrade.

BUT, if he does have that sort of plan, he sure has bungled the
job of explaining to most of his own base.

Instead he's acting like some of the European soldiers who came
to help the Continental Army; they were shocked that they had to
give American soldiers a reason/rationale for what they were to do.
Those Europeans eventually got used to the concept...
but I fear Dubya will run out of time before he reaches this realization.

[Porterville]

The nice thing about mCcain-feingold is that McCain will never be president because of it and the bill is partially DOA because of his cosponsership.

[FRForever]

> If they are committing crimes at a higher rate it wouldn’t seem so strange.

You missed the punch line of the article:

> Of all the people arrested for murders in 2005 (10,083), only 4,955 were white/Hispanic, and that includes all arrests in that racial category. In order to believe King and WND, every single one of these people would have to be illegal aliens.

I don’t know about you but I’m thinking that’s a stretch. *No* non-Hispanic, non-illegal people arrested for murder in the year? Anywhere in the country? Nah, not buying it.

And on the other side of the fence, King has never justified his numbers despite ample opportunity (he first made this claim last year.)

I’m just saying it wouldn’t be the first time a pol’s mouth has run away with him.

[engrpat]

I’m certainly less burdened of bending over backward to support the boob.

I worked with for many years several DUmmies and now in retirement we exchange emails covering the political arena. I can no longer defend Bush, I just can't...yes I have given up. He has staked out so many claims that I cannot defend I have stopped trying. You just have know when to fold.

[Liz]

Of government, H.L. Mencken said it best:

"The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office.

Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them.

Nine times out of 10 that promise is worth nothing. The 10th time is made good by looting A to satisfy B.

In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods."

[anton]

I never thought the day would come. I despised Bush the elder for what he did to the GOP with his tax hike and stupid insode the beltway pandering, but I really thought Bush the younger was different. He had teh 12 step thing going, and the Texas thing. Oh well. Live and learn.

[alicewonders]

Maybe King is referring to other kinds of murders - such as those when a drunk driver kills someone on the road. Maybe he is looking at the bigger picture.

[hershey]

Somebody in the WH had better pay attention.

[roses of sharon]

LOL, and embarrassing too, the BDS bandwagon rolls on, no way am I jumping in with KOS and DU, good grief, that’s a barfer for sure!
