the Senate managed--contrary to the conventional wisdom of late April--easily to pass a sensible and comprehensive immigration reform bill. And House Republicans now show some signs of coming to realize that talk radio is not always the best source of policy guidance.

Does anyone really buy this argument by Kristol? He's becoming about as credible as Dick Morris these days.

Well, actually, after the NSA USA story broke (I'm starting to forget what it was, they're all blurring together), one conservative blog hinted that Heyden's nomination was dead. Bush got him in and a judge today. Not bad.

But...and this is important. He absolutely has to play this Marine atrocity story right. The media is going to have a field day. He has to connect with the American people and let them know that justice will be done and that the media is irresponsible. Already, Reuters is claiming this story is a "setback" for Bush.

Oh, Dick Morris. I remember him predicting that Katrina will turn into a positive for Bush because he would be in charge of giving out the money.

Kristol liked McCain in 2000. Sez it all.

"They can talk themselves into a frenzy about illegal immigration, of course. But on this issue, the Senate managed--contrary to the conventional wisdom of late April--easily to pass a sensible and comprehensive immigration reform bill. And House Republicans now show some signs of coming to realize that talk radio is not always the best source of policy guidance. Enough of them may come to realize that passing legislation they regard as flawed would be better than going home to the voters having achieved nothing. So Bush could have an immigration reform signing ceremony to look forward to in the fall."

The lack of logic and coherence to reality is insane.

It's not just talk radio, but Senators like Cornyn and Session and most of the real conservatives in the Senate who debunked and refuted the bogus claims here.

There is nothing 'comprehensive' about a bill

This, in REALITY, ws a special-interest giveaway to La Raza, immigration lawyers, and the cheap-labor lobby. It was neither compassionate, nor fair, nor did it do enough for the borders or for real immigration law enforcement.

Last, there is true insanity in saying a flawed bill is better than no bill. That is not conservative thinking, that is pure insane and overly political-marketing thinking.

There is no push from voters to legalize illegal immigrants. None.

Never forget, Kristol supported McCain in 2000. As did my loser Goober Graham. I'll never fully trust any of them. Even my Gov Sanford who is pretty good but will no doubt support McCain again.

I buy it and agree with it.

And I bet you it turns out to be the prevailing wisdom on the immigration debate. Just wait and see.

Dick Morris says "Build the border wall FIRST!".
It may be the broken-clock-right-twice-a-day...but in that case
Morris might be more sensible...
