I don't think you should be agreeing with Fair unless you were there or until you watch the footage. The strongest attacks made by Tancredo and Kaloogian were on Vincente Fox, Barbara Boxer and in side notes, Gavin Newsome.

There's a big difference between attacking an amnesty plan and attacking a person.

Fair Opinion since Day 1 has been outraged that the base of the Republican party is upset about the amnesty plan.

He/she does not recognize that the political miscalculation being made here is not Kaloogian for standing up for his principles he's held all his life, or for that matter the ideology that Republicans espouse, but that it is the President's advisors who told him 'yeah, support the Vincente Fox plan, that'll win you votes."

It won't - it will just cause strain between him and his conservative base. He needs them motivated and energize. Attacking Republican principles is not the way to do that.

Hey Impeach98:

One has to be very careful about this in an election year, that we do not end up with Kerry. I know we probably won't win California for W anyhow, but we should still try to reduce the damage we cause him.

For example, let's say the media (as fair as they are) take the whole event out-of-context (as you claim I am...which I may be) and report it over and over in the RED STATES that Bush is hated by his own Republican Convention in California. The RATS will make hay over that one.

Being against the President for an ill-conceived idea should wait for now...

What is sad is many of those who now harangue us, started out on the same side, but when we stayed steadfast with the issue, and they assumed it meant we were wrong, last I looked this was America and no one agree's with any President 100% of the time except dims.
