If by doing something about it, you mean writing letters, withholding funds, or writing letters-to-the editor, fine.

If you mean voting for a third party or a democrat, not so fine. In fact, pfui.

There is a fine line between expressing disagreement and going over to the Rat side. Hopefully, you will be able to discern the difference.

I see. So it's "think whatever you wish, so long as you keep us in power." That's healthy for democracy, to be sure.

And there is a wide gulf between criticism aimed at Bush from conservatives and liberals. Not voting for a man who was consistently governed from the left does not automatically make you a liberal.

What will it take for me to vote for Bush in 04?

Repudiation of the immigration plan from the White House. Not "letting it die in secret," not tweaking it and calling it a "revised plan." Outright repudiation of the plan will be my litmus test. Bush has yet to do that - he's still defending the )(#*%! thing.

See, I'm a second generation legal immmigrant who grew up in Texas. I've seen the illegal alien invasion ruin the quality of life in my hometown. So despite Bush's protests to the contrary, I know what this is about.

If I had wanted to live in Mexico, I would have gone there.
