I haven't decided how mad I am about this yet...
You're too mad.
Bush has guaranteed his re-election with this signature, since hard money limits are doubled, and Bush raised more hard money than any candidate in history in 2000.
And, for those who think most Republicans are going to vote against Bush because of CFR, think again.
Amnesty, maybe. CFR, not a chance.
Besides, there's no such thing as CFR. Lawyers are sitting in rooms right now devising ways to get around this bill.
And, that's assuming that the Supreme Court doesn't torpedo major portions of it, which is a faulty assumption.
Besides, I thought everybody on FR was going to vote third party or Democrat because of the "amnesty" (which isn't an amnesty but it doesn't matter).
I immediately called Domenici's office and spelled my name, said I was registered Republican, in the state since 1972, this was the most disappointed I'd ever been with the senator and slammed the phone down so hard pieces of it flew. Put it back together, called our former congressman and unsuccessful 2000 senate candidate and kept my heart from jumping out of my chest and roaring along the phone wires to get his take. He said this way Tristani can't use the vote against him in the fall. I carefully put the phone up and erased any memory of an entire party.
There's a party that starts with R--but I just can't--dyslexia, Alzheimer's, FReementia deliria, for the life of me I just can't remember the name of that party.
I'll wrap a copy of the Constitution around a brick just in case I do.
