When Bush was elected in 2000, I had no illusions what "Compassionate Conservatism" meant. I voted for Bush for National Security reasons.

However, Bush is not running for re-election again. The House GOP is. And Bush's stance on a guest worker program is, IMO, severely jeopardizing their chances.

So IMO it is critical to oppose Bush on his stance on a guest worker program. Not just because history in Europe shows guest workers create a festering problem. Not just because anything remotely resembling amnesty will make the problem worse as long as the borders are not secure.

But also because it is creating an opening for the Dems to win in 2006.

If the GOP had been acting like the majority party, then they would not have any problem.
