Actually, and unfortunately, its perfectly clear: Its called socialism - Now in exciting new Republican flavor!

The part that is most upsetting is that it is attached to an ANWR drilling authorization bill. Now as conservatives, if we want ANWR drilling, we are forced to accept a socialistic bailout.

It's not clear why ANWR doesn't have its own bill anyway. When gas prices were $1.00 a gallon it may have been unpopular, but at $2.00 a gallon I think that most Americans are open to it if it could be explained to them in an effective way.

You ever made sausage?

The point Jeff, is that there is majority approval for ANWR, but RINO Senators keep voting with the Democrats to filibuster the measure. In order to defeat the filibuster, we have to peel away enough liberals to defeat the RINOs in the Republican party.

It is ugly and it stinks, but like sausage, the end result is worth the effort. Thank John McCain for giving Ted Stevens the idea. He attacked his torture bill to the measure and no one cried. Now, Stevens attaches ANWR, and its like he shot somebody.

We will win this one.

"I think that most Americans are open to it if it could be explained to them in an effective way."

There's the rub, I guess. Where's Ronald Reagan when you need him?
