I’m afraid not. Apparently not enough of them, or they wouldn’t have put Pelosi, Murtha, Clinton, Reid, etc.. in the leadership. It’s all fine and dandy to threaten the Republicans, and trash-mouth them. The only trouble with that though is that when the hard-case leftist leaders get in there, who is going to listen to all the raving and ranting then? They’re not going to give a *($%#* what all the disgruntled critics of the RNC think! But if it makes them feel better to knock all the Republicans around, then go right ahead.

If the hard-left succeeds in taking over the rest of the government, it won’t matter anymore whether we all punish the Republicans or not. There won’t be a Republican party, or a Libertarian Party, or a Constitution Party, etc...! So it won’t matter anymore, will it!

Reasonable people can look at the bill, and not like it. But they should at least look at it, and discuss it, shouldn’t they? We are all adults, aren’t we? They can scold the President, and disagree with him, without getting nasty and mean, and calling him a traitor, can’t they?

The President is a human being, and can get crabby at times like anyone else, can’t he? Doesn’t he have a right to his opinion on things just like any other American? Yeah, I’m afraid at times he sticks his feet in his mouth, and says things that tick people off. But he has done much to please these people in the past. A lot of them seem to have forgotten all about that. He took a lot of nastiness, and insults from the other side for it too! Maybe he gets a little sick of it. Then people from his own side dump on him , and threaten impeachment. I’d like to think of what they all would do if they could walk in his shoes.

If they could succeed in impeaching and removing him, who do they think would take over? Well, there is our VP. But what happens if they impeach them at the same time? Who will fill that vacuum, hmm? I think some people better think of that, and think quick! Because the third person in line is Nancy Pelosi.

In case many haven’t noticed, a lot of our finest senators and congresspeople were “fired” last fall. So the people above got in. That’s right! A lot of people were put out who would have snuffed out the bad parts of the bill in its cradle.

So there has to be some compromise, whether we like it or not. Yes, even Ronald Reagan had to compromise at times. (holding his nose while he did it)But he was a reasonable adult, and did what he had to do in order to get some things he wanted done. That’s the very nature of the job Presidents and Congresspersons have to do, isn’t it?

The biggest mistake Reagan made was signing the amnesty bill in 1986. I think when all was said and done. There were 6 million granted amnesty. This was the last time our immigration laws were enforced. Now we have at least 20 million more. If this bill goes through, the floodgates will open.

Also, I am having trouble telling the difference between Republican and hard left. Repubs are for (Senate) hate crime legislation that protects gays (lots of Baptist preachers goin to do time if this goes through), Bush wants to give billions for Aid research in Africa, Bush want to act on global warming, Our tax cuts are just about history, Bush want an amnesty bill and more H1 workers. Certainly, if we let in these people we will end up with socialized medicine. There will be millions of them who now have ‘rights’. Social Security will go bust and so taxpayers will be paying for this stuff after getting huge tax increases. Tell me how the Dems are worse than what we have?

This bill will put an end to America..even an amnended bill...this crap has been going on since 1965 (Ted Kennedy), 1986 (Ted Kennedy with Simpson and Mazzoli- no enforcement George Bush Sr. and Bill Clinton) and now 2007 (Ted Kennedy and George Bush Jr.)...

The special interestsand thier public lackeys driving this agenda are no friend of the Republic...
