The problem for Mr. Frist, he acknowledged, is that, in order to avoid a possible convention floor fight, the platform's immigration plank has to be written in such a way as to reconcile, or at least appear to reconcile, the irreconcilable. That is, it has to oppose amnesty, but not oppose the president's plan, which includes a temporary amnesty that also, as some critics claim, can lead to citizenship for those granted amnesty.

"The document," Mr. Frist acknowledged, "has to reflect the president's principles and at same time the party's principles and policies."

So, Senator Frist is actually acknowledging that President Bush isn't the kind of Republican that the Republican party wants to be, the one that he purports to lead, is. It would seem that Senator Frist, Rep. Delay along with others are gravely concerned with Bush and where he is taking the party in view of how the base and even some of the rank and file seem so opposed to (and more so on a daily basis these days) his guest worker (amnesty) plan, in any form.

I guess the Republican Party isn't being as compassionately (aka liberally) conservative as Bush wants it to be, yet! Give Bush time and he will try his compassionate best to ram (this plan of his) down Americas throat no matter whether they want it or not. After all, he is our benevolent and compassionate leader and he knows what's best for the nation. I suspect that the RNC hierarchy is (seriously) second guessing (about now) their bargain they made in picking Bush for the ticket in 2000 right about now.

Then the document will be a lie.

The Bush Amnesty is an Amnesty, and the President and his apologists are dishonest to claim otherwise.

After re-election, President Bush will push again and again for his Amnesty, and it will be necessary to defeat him on that issue at every opportunity.
