Traditional conservatives are his opposition.
“Worst Republican President ever!”
If you really believe this statement, then you are a fool. In your twisted world, was Reagan the previous holder of the “worst Republican President ever” title?
After all, Reagan did grant amnesty in 1986. According to your rationale, that would have made Reagan the worst, right?
If the moderate republicans don't get it from this mere fact they will never get it. I think moderates might even hunker down to try and defend any conservative press.
Conservatives, we are in for a fight and we better be willing to take it on! We HAVE to have a conservative majority in the repub party before we ever have a snowball's chance in hell of ever beating the DBM/dems again.
Your comment makes no sense, sounds like a neoconservative who reads The Weekly Standard.
Maybe thats what he means.
"Stand up to those voters who wont give you money or organize for you or vote for you again!" Easy to say when your gone is a year anyway, we'll see how 'showing courage and resolve" does for Lindsey Graham next election.
Poor Tony Snow, having to carry water for Bush in this fiasco. Snow should publically resign over having to speak out in support of the immigration bill — and go back to the news where he can do some good.

Federal Government Fence Costs: $4,000,000 per mile
NO FENCE - DOING NOTHING - AMNESTY Costs: 45,625 innocent U.S. killed by illegal aliens since September 11, 2001.
More Americans are murdered each year by illegal aliens than have died in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan combined.

Why is it that the proponents of this terrible bill always say “ we can’t possibly deport 12 million criminal immigrants” We have many more than 12 million people who smoke pot in this country, and yet we don’t hear the same argument about them? The government seems hell bent on rounding them up and putting them in jail. Let’s give them amnesty! (of course they will have to pay a fine and return to their home first). And why does ANYONE believe the government will do it right this time? They have absolutely ZERO credibility on the issue.
Reagan's amnesty was a mistake as well, but a much smaller mistake when it comes to the number of illegals. They fooled us in '86, but they won't fool us again (although they seem to have fooled you). Also, I had to spend two tours in Iraq under Bush's inept "leadership" as CIC. While I'm in Iraq, Bush is back here refusing to secure the borders to import cheap labor. I think that Reagan was an awesome CIC. You're the one who is living in a "twisted" world. I'm sure the Bush loves having suckers like you around.
I’m a Democrat, however, I did cross the lines and vote for President Bush in 2004.
A question that is nagging at me a bit: was I wrong to do so?
I had two reasons for voting for President Bush in 2004. First, the WOT. I thought that Pres. Bush was essentially right on Iraq. Second, I thought that Sen. John Kerry would be much worse.
I stand back and look at it and I wonder if Sen. Kerry really *could* have been any worse. He wouldn’t have had the support of a pliant Congress (which at that point was controlled by the GOP), and he would have galvanized the conservative opposition.
And on the WOT, I wonder how effectively the WOT can continue to be prosecuted by a President who has the support of probably less than a third of the population. He’s a lame duck, and what was his own base is more or less openly looking forward to 1-20-09.
Was I wrong to support and vote for President Bush in 2004?
I looked at your post history. You are the enemy, a globalist corporate lawyer from NY. You also managed to brag about how much money you make (150k-200k). Congrats! You're one of the worst Bush apologists I've seen here.
And it is right to take political risk for members of the United States Congress,”
Like he did? If he would have had this as a campaign promise than I can see him saying this, but he did not.
Boy, do you get it. You receive my vote for post of the year.
They're also taken to calling us nativist and bigots, how liberal of them.
bttt
There it is, and it only took 2 sentences.
Agree totally!!
Wow! That is a tough question. Actually you were right to vote for him. Kerry would have left Iraq immediately and possibly have the terrorists over here. This immagration situation will probably not pass so this could end up ok. I would be interesting to hear other people’s answer though.
