OK...i don't comment too much on FR....but by golly, the 800 pound gorilla in the living room is that we are in Iraq but 5 years after 9/11 we still don't have a handle on our own borders...i feel that is the biggest problem Bush/Pubs are looking at...IMO....most conservatives i know and even libs i know can see the irony in this.....sorry but it's true.

You got that right. I voted, and I voted Republican, as I always do. And I voted for Bush twice.

That said, I wish someone on our side would ask the President, "Mr. President, do you believe that your idiotic, pigheaded stance on ignoring our borders has affected the outcome of the election in any way?"

I think an even greater problem is folderol like censoring the Internet while letting social spending balloon out of control. Voters have figured, "if we're going to have skyrocketing government deficits, why not elect Democrats? They'll at least let us have Internet gambling and overseas prescription ordering!"
