"The National Republican Congressional Committee has been advising its candidates NOT to mention border security and immigration issues in their speeches or campaign literature," stated Janine Hansen Independent American candidate for Congress Dist. 2 in Nevada."
Well now, in our eagerness to dump on the Republicans, we accept whatever claims an opposing candidate makes, unsubstantiated or not, without even raising the question of a verifyiable source. After all, who cares if that's the truth or not, as long as we can criticize the Republicans.
Next thing you know, people will be posting Carville's crap and calling it "the truth".
--------------------------
Carville's ravings arte not the truth and will never be presented by me or other like me as being the ravings of a semi-madman for hire. What Carville has had going for him is that the Republicans, including Bush, have never decisively refuted him on the national stage.
I used the original title, and you are right that it does give the impression that there is a statement made by Congressional Republicans. As to the statement itself, I do not necessarily believe or disbelieve based solely on this story, although I am inclined to believe it based on what seems to be a blatant disregard for the will of the people on the part of Republicans OR Democrats when it comes to this issue, so why would I NOT be so inclined? If you have evidence to prove me wrong, please share it. I am always willing to give the benefit of the doubt. I don't claim to have all the answers.

Several years ago you may remember Carville on endless national forums regarding the Clinton rapes and Lewinsky affair saying, "It's about sex. Everyone lies about sex."
The proper reply should have been, it's about the mental instability of a borderline psychotic who can not be trusted to be left aloner in the presidential office with a stupid glorified high school gir. There wasn't enough with or incisiveness in the entire Republican party to do it. That lack of wit and incisiveness was Carville's only strenth. It is what kept the Clintons in the White House, and what gives the Clintons power today. That lack of wit, lack of reflexive discernment, lack of incisiveness, is what characterizes Bush. Get it?
