It appears that it doesn’t matter how well he delivers it, nor what he says about Iraq or the War on Terror at this point that would save him from himself. It is very clear, as FOX News is reporting this morning, this guy is going to include as one of his three key address points his plans to “work with the Democrats” on “immigration reform” – in other words he is going down the very path that talk show pundits and conservatives have been warning about which will sink him into even further disapproval (the only words I can think of to describe his deteriorating situation is a “state of squalid disapproval”), and that he is intend on destroying the Republican Party for the next decade.
I say that it doesn’t matter what he says about Iraq, terrorism, the war et all, because the only people who would even imagine giving him any of the support he needs to be effective in anything would be coming from the Republican base, that is conservatives, and this nail in the coffin with his stubborn and inane “immigration reform” is exactly the very words that will drive enough of the base away such that he will be all alone in the world, most of the conservatives feeling, and openly saying, “why bother?” – why bother to help this guy, to take the time at this point, he is a disaster, he doesn’t give a damn about listening anyway, a man with big ears both of which both are tin ears, he won’t listen.
In the eyes of many who would have otherwise been “the last guard” in any remaining support he would have had, he is going to be seen as someone who is regarded as lacking good sense or judgment as proven by his ill-timely and obstinate shoving down the throat of America this “immigration reform” amnesty of perhaps 60 million or more illegal aliens from Mexico, an inane act which undermines our very borders and security and will likely lead to further terrorist attacks directly upon our soil. The subsequent events that will follow as a result of this inane act will be of historical consequences that will be looked back upon as one of only a fool who would have invested in a scheme like this.
His disapproval ratings now reaching 60 percentile, this insistence on going down the “immigration reform” path is going to at last finish him, as if he is even too obstinate to even see it. Why? Why is he so obstinate? He has less than two years left, in which he is about to become such a lame goose that, once the Democrats unleash their full attack upon him, he will be so alone that effectively we will not have a President of the United States at all other than in name only – why can’t he just drop this stupid obstinate path of “comprehensive immigration reform” for the next two years and let the Democrats expose themselves as the Party of Amnesty for which the majority of Americans are against? Let the Democrats be seen as the ones who will not listen.
At least then, he might be able to be effective in some manner, perhaps regarding the War on Terrorism?
But no. He is going to prove himself as obstinate and as inane as it seems he is.
A disaster.
He is going to take the Republican Party down. It will not be very long time after his Borderless State of the Union address when the Republican Party is going to reach the barren phase. The Republicans lost in 2006 because of Bush. It looks like Bush wants to do everything he can to see them lose in 2008. Perhaps the crown really was too big for his little head.
"The point I was making is that every President (including Bush) has done nothing about the Border..."
pre-9/11 thinking. we're fighting a WOT...Bush should have secured the borders on 9/12, no excuses.
