I'm not forgetting the WOT, but as you've mentioned, congress is continuing to spend as if there isn't one, and Bush keeps on signing the bills.

The pubs are getting to be more liberal, more socialist, more like the dims every day.

It's sickening.

And the illegal immigrant situation is just the last straw for me.

I'm fed up, pissed off, and just plain generally angry. I know I'm not alone in such feelings, but wahington just doesn't seem to care. They're too busy pandering (at not very well either) for the elections.

I agree with you. And on top of that, I'm tired of politicians dithering and telling us how difficult solutions are to find.

Solutions are not hard to find. A spine is hard to find in Washington, but if our pols actually had them, solutions to these problems are not difficult. Solutions based on principles and not on accomodation to a million different views.

Illegal immigration, for instance, does not seem like it requires a complicated solution.

1) Crack down on employers, 2) Build a fence, 3) Block illegal residents from receiving public services. None of that is complicated to accomplish. Require a backbone, yes. Complicated, no.

Do all three immediately and simultaneously, and that alone would allow the Republicans to hold both Houses.

Riding the wave of success on the illegal immigration issue, shift taxes away from business and personal productivity and onto consumption.

If we weren't so locked into a two-party system, a new party that championed these issues and held to their promises could take all three branches of government.
