Excellent post.
I missed the "immigration" part of the speech, which is a good thing because had I heard it, I could not have stomached the rest.
President Bush is very determined on this issue and will not give it up, nor will he stop insulting our intelligence. Conservatives will have to keep the pressure on Congress to fight it.
I honestly don't believe the GOP as a whole would be stupid enough to support his proposal. But if they do, they'll lose in more ways than one.
The only opponents the Repubs have are the Dems and they are silent on this issue, or in the very least, agree with it...
A pretty good game Washington is playing...
