Is it just me or is anyone else getting sick of the one thought Nellies?

No, it is not just you. Most of us feel that way.

No, it is not just you. Most of us feel that way.

Yeah, all three of you.

The border issue is not going away. You can't wish it away. The only thing that will help the GOP in this regard is to take some strong action on the issue. As the president is unlikely to change his stance, and congressional Republicans seem incapable of doing anything serious on the issue, I expect it to be an albatross around the party's neck for the foreseeable future.

You can't blame people for getting angry when issues they feel are important are routinely unaddressed--or worse, addressed in a fashion diametrically opposed to what they want. If President Bush started governing like a conservative, his numbers would go back up.
