Just heard on FOX radio news that Mexican officials are also coming to "support" the invaders.

I heard the same thing.

It sickens me, but I must acknowledge something.

While we are "distracted" by one day's worth of protests, we have not.....

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about the tax system... (like the Fair Tax)

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about the coming crisis in Social Security/Medicare, etc....

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about utilizing domestic oil sources... (like drilling in ANWR, the oil shales in Montana, off the coast of Florida, etc.)

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about the Iranian dictator who, even today, rubs our noses in our inability/unwillingness to confront him....

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about North Korea....

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about illegal immigration.... (how about sending Nagin's buses to pick them up? Since we know they'll be in one place at one time, and we know it ahead of time, what could be more convenient?)

...held our GOP representatives accountable for not doing something about Eminent Domain abuse....

...and a whole plethora of other things that I won't bother going into here.

I consider myself to somewhat of a moderate-conservative, but my conservative side is becoming ever more frustrated with the GOP. Not that I am crazy/stupid enough to vote for a liberal, but I am beginning to become disillusioned with the GOP. I never thought I'd say it, but I may stay home this November.

If we won't do anything about the ILLEGAL (yeah, I said it) TRESPASSERS ('cause that's what they are) that are in one place at one time, then I have absolutely no faith that we will do anything about any of the above threats that are more remote (in geography or time).

WAKE UP! One day's worth of protests is temporary. The problems I have mentioned above are not. KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN! Don't blind yourselves to one day's worth of news coverage. THESE PROTESTS DON'T MATTER IF WE AREN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!

Sorry for my rant, but it is only a small glimpse of my frustration. It seems our country is on it's way to a dead end, with the Dems (and their liberal ilk) pushing it ever faster, and the GOP seems to be willing to step aside and let it happen.

I read today that they are making a movie of "Atlas Shrugged". It should be interesting to see the public's reaction, assuming they can understand the message.
