I have finally come to the sobering conclusion that Bush and Rove are simply contemptuous of the conservative base. There is no other rational reason for them being so hell bent on signing this monstrosity into law. Period.

From the standpoint of the Republican Party this bill is so disastrous in so many different ways I don't even know where to begin. And all of this is being done with the benefit of hindsight with regards to the flaws and failures of the disastrous '86 Amnesty.

Once this bill is signed it will irrevocably tip the balance of electoral power towards the Democrats. There will be no going back. The GOP will join Gray Davis in political oblivion.

F**k it. As someone said on another thread,

"... at least we won't have gay marriage in Ohio.".

Sometimes I wonder if that isn't the intention.

I have to wonder if McCain is so bitter and angry about not being elected in 2000 that he seeks revenge on the voters that shut him out. I think he is just crazy enough.
