He uses the Immigration issue as a stalking horse to espouse his anti-war sentiments.

LeBoutillier’s anti-war feelings come through loud and clear.

Y'know, there's a difference between being anti-war, and being anti the way we've dealt with this war.

The true Jane Fonda anti-war activist is for peace at any price, they even protested Bill Clinton's war against the Serbs. Being against the way this war has turned out is something else entirely.

When I said, "Go to war, President Bush," I thought I was urging turning Baghdad into a glass parking lot. Ok, maybe full nuclear annihilation was somewhat impractical, but I didn't sign up for a war where we didn't at least bomb the holy hell out of towns that contined to resist after we toppled the Saddam regime. I didn't sign up for PC rules of engagement, where our military cannot effectively wipe out an enemy's stronghold, and most everything surrounding it. I didn't sign up for a muzzie Marshall Plan, using billions and billions of US taxpayer dollars to rebuild an infrastructure for both the Shiites and the Sunnis that they would just blow up the opposing side's stuff as soon as we left. I didn't sign up for a war where poorly paid, overworked soldiers would act as cheap guards for expensive mercenaries who were in turn defending very well paid business people who are the Daddy Warbuckses of the 21st Century. I didn't sign up for a war that should have taken six months to win (this wasn't the Germans and the Japanese we were fighting, here), but instead was drawn out in such a way that it is guaranteed to divide this country like nothing seen since Vietnam.

Now, we have the Bush Administration's rubberstamping of Fat Teddy's new Democratic voter initiative. That is the straw that finally broke the camel's back for me. I knew that President Bush would not be able to propose any conservative legislation with a Rat-controlled Congress, but I believed it to be his job to veto anything that came out of that body. Being unwilling to do that, he's now useless.
