"Still, and if that is the case, I would find it very disturbing if W strayed from his plain language and principled leadership and began using games and tactics fit for a...Clinton."

All that has to happen for the AWB renewal to become history is for the House to ignore it, but that is not good enough for YOU. YOU demand that Bush beat his chest and make pious pronouncements about the sacredness of the Constitution.

"All that has to happen for the AWB renewal to become history is for the House to ignore it, but that is not good enough for YOU. YOU demand that Bush beat his chest and make pious pronouncements about the sacredness of the Constitution."

No demand here. I support President Bush and fully expect him to continue his superb leadership by continuing to plainly say what he means and mean what he plainly says- a mark of a true leader. If someone brings something for him to sign that undermines the Constitution, I absolutely expect him to reject any such bad legislation- as per his duty. Why are you uncomfortable with that?

In fact just today, he- as you would put it- beat his chest and made a pious pronouncement with scolding remarks he made against certain members of our Congress who are arbitrarily obstructing the judicial appointments.

He didn't say, I'll wait to see if it crosses my desk- he made a principled stand. What's wrong with that?
