Your headline is a bit off the mark - it is not the Republican party that is acting stupid - it is all of those self-declared "true conservatives" (usually Buchanan or Keyes supporters) that will vote against anyone who doesn't meet their single-issue litmus test. Much better to throw the whole country to the dogs (or to the Dems, which is worse) just to prove a point.

It was Wesley Pruden (or maybe Emmett Tyrell) who a number of years ago tagged the GOP as the Stupid Party for it's infighting during the Clinton administration.

I think it's time to resurrect that moniker.

It's better than claiming to fight a war on terrorism, while allowing the terrorist to waltz across the boarder all day.
Did anybody else hear the Mexicans screaming Osama on t.v.?
No offense but lunatics don't just come from the middle east. They come from everywhere. Hard to protect against, while inviting them in. Our military is doing a great job overseas. Rumsfield, and team are to be applauded.
G.W. is however doing poorly looking after us in the U.S.
They are fighting to keep them there, while Bush is doing everything possible to escort them in.
It only took 9 of theirs to kill 3000 of ours. Not in Iraq.
Right in our our back yard.
What in the world is he thinking about?
