To: Sloth

I don't think that George Bush has attacked you personally, and I know for darn sure Laura hasn't. Unless you can show me a quote where either one of them called Sloth a traitor or said you were in the pay of some foreign organization, you don't have a leg to stand on.

To: Miss Marple; Sloth

I think Sloth was talking about the bashers here; at least I was hoping so.

To: Miss Marple
Since when are accusing someone of being a traitor or being in the pay of a foreign organization the only ways to be disrespectful of someone? (I'm not calling anyone a traitor, but for argument's sake, I don't regard accusing a traitor of being a traitor as an act of disrespect; rather, it's an act of lucidity and often an act of courage.)

You may have succeeded in beating the Sloth into submission (Islam anyone?), but allow me to suggest that being told by anyone that, for examples: (1) amnesty isn't amnesty, (2) our country of predominantly native born is actually a country of immigrants, and (3) the strongest nation on earth can't deport all illegal aliens is enough to offend me.

I eagerly voted for Bush twice. Yes, I knew he voiced a liberal pro-illegal alien position at both times, but please don't blame me for hoping that he'd see the conservative light when it come decision time. I'm very disappointed and my outlook for the 'Icans is right now bleak. Perhaps what I need to do is print out the list of Bush's accomplishments on Pukin Dog's homepage and leave copies of it laying around so I can peruse it often to get my spirits up.

I hold out some hope--not a lot--that the House may yet save the day. I do think no bill on illegal aliens is better than a bad bill. From what I can see, you can't go wrong pushing the House bill when the country--including 'Icans, 'Rats, and Hispanics--are all behind it. Bush himself has told us that he'll toe the conservative line if the conservative base gets riled enough to insist on it. I shudder to think of what we might be losing by silencing ourselves.

A return to honor--sure. But censorship, even in the name of conservatism, is not honorable.
