“That’s pretty much when the gloves completely came off, but the brazen contempt for conservatives was there previous to 2006.”
I don’t disagree, and actually the best thing that ever happened for Jorge politically was 9/11/2001. With all the patriotism and support that accrued to him after that event, it naturally became the number issue and he was able to fly under the radar on all his liberal proposals. Without 9/11, I doubt he could have won reelection in 2004, and would probably have have Republican primary challengers.
9/11 and the WoT gave him good cover up until he became so brazen and insulting this year during the amnesty debat. That’s when large numbers of Republicans had had more than enough.
all the NOS were not Republicans, and 80% of the public NOS were not all Republicans. This issue crosses many boundaries, which causes me nothing but joy....though your statement is accurate.

About time, too. We don’t just do as we’re told. We aren’t Democrats.
