I totally agree. Not only has the illegal invasion cost us billions in taxes for prison incarceration, social services, bankrupt school districts, and hospitals forced to curtail emergency services and depressed domestic wages -- it presents a CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER to national security. Bush is a lame duck and doesn't care but I'm afraid his idiotic out-of-control border policy will hurt us in the midterm election.
Bush is a lame duck it's looking like more and more, and sadly it's largely due to his own inaction in certain areas.
I can't imagine us losing any seats in the midterms however. While W's popularity may not be great, it's even lower for Congressmen and even lower for Dims/Libs. It may be purely by default, but I see us picking up seats, not losing them.
Again however, that's politics, and while it would be considered a "political victory," in terms of this nation, I still think we're well on a losing track overall ideologically and morally.
Bush is a lame duck and *I* don't care what he thinks on this issue. It is our job now to cut his legs off with regard to the diabolical amnesty plan.
