This gives me great hope that the conservative movement can be revived. Under the two Bushes, it has been wandering in the wilderness for a long time.

The amnesty bill was, hopefully, the spark needed.

No one was a bigger supporter of Dubya than me in 2000 and 2004. Now I can't wait for his term to end. I still don't regret my vote in '04, if for nothing else than the Roberts and Alito nominations. But otherwise, Bush's second term was been a huge disappointment.

Right now, Hillary would win my home state of Ohio, IMO. I agree with Rush that there is an 80% chance of her election in 2008.

These ungrateful foreigners (once the become able to vote here) will never vote Republican. Everyone of their racist, separatist so called civil rights groups La Raza (The Race), LULAC, MALDEF and all rabid democrats. The republicans are delirious if they think they can capture the ungrateful hispanic vote.

Great graphics backhoe...Long time no see i hope your doing well:)

I have yet to understand why the attempt at giving NON-CITIZENS better representation than Americans ever came to the floor of the Capitol. There is a fundamental flaw somewhere here....

Bush will have an excellent legacy: he signed the Secure Fence Act of 2006.

No...the 'pubes dont think they can get the hispanic vote...they are shilling to american business interests who want cheap, slave labor...a despicable short term money making scheme that does not look to the future at all.

Dubya has approximately 18 months left in his second term. Due to his unwavering support of a very flawed amnesty bill that went down in flames, in spite of his best effort to push it thru ... thereby thoroughly alienating his Republican and conservative base ... will give a whole new meaning to the term ‘lame duck’ presidency.

Great cartoon... ;)

This was not about immigration reform. It was about the 12 million illegals and making them legal with the stroke of a pen.

To my knowledge the bill did nothing about creating a system to present an equitable chance for people all around the world to emmigrate here. It simply was a snake-oil attempt at reforming the term used to describe over 12 million invaders.

That’s like saying Clinton has an excellent legacy: Nationalized Health Care.

[Bush will have an excellent legacy: he signed the Secure Fence Act of 2006.]

Only if he does shut down the border. Unfortunately, he does not seem willing to do his job as a conservative and panders to the left way to much.

I've been wondering how long it will take for conservatives to start referring to Bush's presidency in the same terms that we refer to Jimmah Carter's:

The Failed Bush Administration!

I think the fence will be built, albeit slowly and with much thrashing and gnawing.
