No problem. And perhaps unlike the persons with whom you may have an ongoing argument from other threads, I am committed to voting for Bush and I do understand that his administration is the one I'd prefer in charge.

However, I can't give this administration a pass on their lapses in interior enforcement of immigration laws. This area of enforcement seems like it has been neglected since the Reagan Administration.

It's been years since I posted about Boxer on FR -- the last time was probably after her embarassing floor debate with Rick Santorum on abortion. Boxer is an embarassment, but the liberal electorate here along with the very favorable view of encumbents here (unless they have a huge screw-up) means she's surely sticking around DC for another 6 years.

The reason why I care about what Asa had to say was that there's HOPE for him and this administration to understand our state's problems with immigration enforcement. There's no hope for Boxer to understand, she's an unashamed extreme lefty on so many issues, that she wears our disdain as a badge of courage for her supporters.

FWIW, the John & Ken Show has recently (and very strongly) criticised Joe Baca, the congressman from the Ontario area for his interference on the matter.

Lois Capps gets much less attention as she's rarely engaged in anything. She ran for her seat after her husband-politician died I believe. That seat used to be held by a Republican, but a slight gerrymandering change and the further leftward decline in the Santa Barbara electorate messed up that district. What a shame.

Actually, since the Johnson Administration.

I understand, some think that John and Ken are preaching to the choir, they are actually attacking the choir, IMO.

JMO, they would do a much better service if they attacked the political adversaries who hide in the background laughing their arses off, Baca/Feinstein/Boxer.
