Yes, well, the reality is that his heart isn't in this legislation and the American uproar, the Republican House, and some Republican stalwarts in the Senate brought us to this point despite his wishes. I don't give him credit for the legislation as he isn't responsible for it.
I DO give credit to the majority of Republicans in both chambers. They deserve re-election. Though I WILL hold Frist to his released statement today that he intends to make sure this is built.
What I will give the President credit for is signing the legislation. He could have VETO'd it. He is strongly against it. I'm not sure it was a case of putting the will of the American people first, or the election prospects of his party first, but it doesn't really matter in the end. He signed it.
I presume to know the depth of emotion was similiar to that I feel about voting for my pro-amensty Congressman this cycle. We're both doing something we'd rather not, for reasons we perceive to be of more need then our personal desires.
Six years late , right before the election they throw we conservatives a bone.
Not to worry though, they will get your vote regardless.
It's those that drink kool-aid SOME of the time that they are worried about.
Not those that drink the kool-aid ALL the time.
