SOFIA, Bulgaria - President Bush, turning from adulation in the Balkans to difficulties back home, said Monday that his stalled immigration overhaul would be revived and his embattled attorney general would not fall under a Senate vote of no-confidence. ADVERTISEMENT
"I'll see you at the bill signing," Bush said confidently about an immigration bill that has run into deep trouble on Capitol Hill.

So the fact that Ron Paul supported the “cut and run” resolution, doesn’t factor into the 100% deal there???
But before you and a few others get steamed at me for apparently disrespecting Dr. Paul, just sit back and think about I really said just now...
It’s one thing to be a principled legislator (which he is), but being recklessly principled alienates you from your constituency...And he has done that this time...
Thats why he has some serious challenges in the district this time around...
And with all of the Mexicans here, they will vote for his nephew Julio.
> If you persist in you misguided obsession your ‘library’ will be viewed with the same degree of disdain as is the Clinton Library and Massage Parlor!
W’s got the same legacy making abilities as his tax-raising father.
Both had victories in the Middle East. Both squandered their victories in historic blunders and America-destroying edicts.
While they sip mint tea on their ranches in retirement, we will live with their horrible legacies. Thanks for the betrayal, Bushies. Shame shame SHAME on you.
Why write to Bubba II? He doesn’t give a rat’s ass what us commoners think!
Mr. President, IF IT DOES suvive, the GOP and the country will NOT.
my thoughts exactly. I just called the Pres. comment line (and I have never stopped calling all my reps/Senators and the Pres) and said that his legacy would be the destruction of America and if he continues 80% of the "we the People" will be calling for his impeachment, including ME! who worked for his campaign twice and voted for him twice.
Why do they not listen to us?
Not long ago I’d have gone to the mat for this president.
As it stands today I wouldn’t lift a hand to help him in any endeavor.
To hell with him and his one world order b.s.
I’m an American not a mexican.
The president has failed to enforce our immigration laws and protect our nation from invasion, he should be removed from office.
>>Your comments are sick and over the line, as so sadly, many are here.
>I agree with you in respect to what VG stated.
Whoa, whoa, whoa... I NEVER wished anything on the president — only that he had completely lost my support.
THAT’S over the line? In America?
> I must admit, however, that our president is making me sick at my stomach!
Then CALL and WRITE — make it clear that America will not stand for this outrage!
We *stopped* the bill. We can kill it!
My whole point in all these threads is Bush does realize it, that's why he insulting us! I'm hoping I'm right about this because what is going to happen no matter what Bush's intentions are is if conservatives band together to show congress our distain for this POS bill then what other issues should we band together for just as, or more solidly for. If we conservatives can show DBM/dems and moderates we can kick their asses out of office for trying to foist insane legislation on Americans, it will be the smartest move Bush ever made!!
A scenario worth hoping for!
The Republicans are so worried about pandering to a 14.5% Hispanic voting block and attempting to be “centric” (Whatever that means) that they will become indistinguishable from the Democrats. What sets Giuliani apart from a Democrat? His position on the second amendment, taxes, gays, or abortion? Before all is said and done Guilliani will be the candidate of the party and when the Republicans loose, they will blame it on Iraq. How about McCain? How different is he from Edwards, another political ambulance chaser. Whatever the fad or trend is, McCain can be expected to be there, standing shoulder to shoulder with Edwards.
The GOP is committing political suicide. Before all is done, McCain or Guliani will be on the ticket and many will claim these candidates are 'centric' and 'electable'. These uninspiring candidates will get the Republicans unelected in 2008. This combined with a base that largely feels alienated by a President that managed to rally churches to get him elected but did nothing for Teri Scheivo. A President that wants to be conservative and for national security but lets a boarder go unchecked while many Southern States (Which tend to be Red) get pissed. All the Republicans need to do is have a Foley incident right before elections in 2008 like they had in the last elections, and they are done. But the real question is, who or what do they really have to blame? Iraq? They had it all, but in their attempt to reach further they will tumble.

I attribute the Elian Gonzales episode more to Janet Reno than to Clinton.
Now that I think about it, Waco was probably the most bizarre episode in the bizarre Clinton Presidency, but there were so many of them it's difficult to rank them in order of bizarreness.
Something out of another century, and another War of the Worlds:
"If one could have hung that June morning in a balloon in the blazing blue above London every northward and eastward road running out of the tangled maze of streets would have seemed stippled black with the streaming fugitives, ... Never before in the history of the world had such a mass of human beings moved ... together. The legendary hosts of Goths and Huns, the hugest armies Asia has ever seen, would have been but a drop in that current. And this was no disciplined march; it was a stampede--a stampede gigantic and terrible--without order and without a goal, six million people unarmed and unprovisioned, driving headlong. It was the beginning of the rout of civilisation, of the massacre of mankind.
Directly below him the balloonist would have seen the network of streets far and wide, houses, churches, squares, crescents, gardens--already derelict--spread out like a huge map, and in the southward blotted. Over Ealing, Richmond, Wimbledon, it would have seemed as if some monstrous pen had flung ink upon the chart. Steadily, incessantly, each black splash grew and spread, shooting out ramifications this way and that, now banking itself against rising ground, now pouring swiftly over a crest into a new-found valley, exactly as a gout of ink would spread itself upon blotting paper"...
He doesn’t care. I hate to say I voted for the man twice. He has sold us right down the river. If this thing isn’t defeated it will be the end of this country as we know it. Bush will go down as the worst President in history. Well I’m done with him, and I’m almost done with the republican party in general. They want to burn, they can do it without my help or my money.
Great point.
