"Some of the things you complain about are the results of just a few Senators. Often moderate Republicans that lets face it have moderate Districts. THe oil drilling in Alaska is a prime example."

Jeb Bradley and Charlie Bass of NH (house) both live in conservative districts but they are both RINOs. How can I vote for either of them?

The problem with that line of though if I might point out is that no matter when we attack it might escalate. If we lose the House we lose the power of appropriations in a big way. The Dems will not have to do a dramatic get us out vote. They will just start strangling the funding. I suspect that is what they will do as to Iraq.

What do I think of the idea?

I don't think the words are allowed on this forum.

I do NOT support Bush resigning OR being impeached. That talk should cease. Period.

The problem is that illegal immigration is a major issue for probably 20% of the population, maybe a bit more or less.

Think about one of the largest states in the country, California where the majority state delegation took a day off to support the illegals marching. If anything, that made my blood boil but what can I do sitting here in Florida about something that happens in California.

They wouldnt do that if they didnt think they had the support of their electorate.

I'm seeing insults, attacks, condemnations and demands to act like mindless sheep

I think anyone who wants to vote third party to do it or vote for the democrats to do it also.

The republican party has had a great record of achievement over the last 12 years. I'm proud to be in it and will be voting a straight ticket. Anyone else should go do their thing.

My representative DOES support my views on illegal immigration that are probably in tune with what you believe (enforcement against employers, fence, practical solution to deportation etc...)but I am not going to vote for him to teach a few senators (RINOS) that dont agree with what I believe? Doesnt make any sense.

ok....you say IM the one not making sense? What exactly are you arguing here? You have a rep who supports your view point....fine....then vote for him. I would too. What exactly is your question then? Nobody is saying vote against repulicans who are FOR A TOUGHER BORDER. We are saying DONT VOTE for republicans who wont do anything.

Something "new"? Oh, you mean like handing over power to the very people who are guaranteed to do everything that you and the rest of us purportedly do NOT want? Gee...how novel...NOT!

I guess that you enjoy bleeding profusely, from that gaping hole in the middle of your face, where you nose is supposed to be.

"Don't forget a total ban on firearms."

No way, Bush would veto that in a heartbeat. Ahh, wait a minute. Bush did say he would sign another Assault Weapon Ban if it came to his desk. Glad we have a Republican President.

My Liberal positions?

I have NO positions on this.

I'm doing the correct thing -- ignoring the Liberal Media's constant pushing of this issue as a wedge with which to divide conservatives.

Just look at this thread for proof.

There was a huge schism over the ports issue amongst conservatives, too, until we found out CHUCK SCHUMER AND HIS CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTORS were guiding it.

All the Libs have left is to divide and conquer us, using the rabid media to do it.

There will be an immigration bill. But NOTHING is decided at all as yet. It's still in CONGRESS for God's sake. There will be compromises, conferences, deals, feints, goofs, outright stupidity and maybe even some brilliant thinking before ANYTHING hits the President's desk.

Like the ports issue, this is right now a strictly Liberal and Liberal Media-generated tempest to divide conservatives in time for the 2006 elections.

If we go along with this Liberal and Liberal Media-generated hooey, we're stupid enough to deserve what we get.

You must be stuck deep in NO because you haven't seen the things the Pubbies HAVE done ... tax cuts (tempered sadly with piggish spending for districts), two Constitutionally oriented Supreme Judges, fighting a war against terrorists, rearming our military and modernizing the force projection ... and if I keep going, please remember that none of these things would even come up for debate under democrap control.

The rhetoric on this immigration issue and others has anyone that happens to disagree on certain aspects labled a RHINO. I nominate that as the most overused word of the year. Sen Brownback for instance a RHINO? I think not.

No, but he IS a Catholic, just like you, and way too many Catholics are siding with the illegal aliens on the basis of what they think is moral do-goodism, even if it ends up wrecking our country. The Bishops, in particular, and of course Cardinal Mahoney, should keep their collective (and I use that socialistic word intentionally) liberal Bishops' noses out of the immigration issue, and work on fixing their own church backyard to make it less of a liberal playground infiltrated by moral degenerates such as gay priests. I'm tired of too many Catholics backing illegal immigration. Bring back the pre-Vatican II Catholics who focused on church spirituality rather than social activism.

This is a team effort and when it comes down to the general election we have to band together and vote Repub. We have to maintain the majority or we'll lose much of what we've gained. I would prefer all Conservatives but being realistic I know it won't be that way.

I have to agree with you there. I'm frustrated myself with the spinelessness of the Republicans. For the majorities they enjoy, they squander away the opportunity. Still, they are the only realistic choice out there to keep Democrats at bay.

I'm going to pull the lever for my representative (Frank Wolf) this time around, but I'll be holding my nose to do it. The sad thing is our region is drifting blue due to spread of people radiating outward from Arlington and Fairfax counties and population shifts.

I think the solution really has to come down to the primaries. I'll vote for the team, but the primaries are where we the coaches can and should make substitutions on those players who aren't performing.

The majority of the House if not all are supporting the tough bill that the house brought up on illegal immigration.

My question was rhetorical for those who wanted to sit out the elections.

sounds like your in denial because here is what I see that they HAVENT DONE while they control the WH, House and the Senate: Immigration, Social Security, Healthcare, not to mention the FEMA screw up by putting FEMA in the Homeleand Security department.

The "border situation" ( WHICH "BORDER"; WE HAVE FOUR OF THEM? ) is the least of your worries, should the damned Dems regain control. Don't be a fool!

"I dont remember FR having this many people acting like little children because their version of what needs to be done to solve the illegal problem isnt done today or tomorrow."

You're such a good little Bushbot.

It's been happening for decades and no one starts whining until now?

Earth to you......we are in a battle for civilization against Islamic Fundamentalism. Piling on this president at this time is inexcusable. Bush did not create the immigration mess. It's been a long time coming. There's a time and place for everything, and now is not the time or the place for such juvenile nonsense.

Turning your back on Bush at this time makes you no better than the dems who are manipulating you with this wedge issue.
