I won't hesitate to never vote republican again.

"I've always thought that people who pump money into the political system, we ought to know who they are," he said.

Yeah, except when the dumb bastard was interviewed by George Will. He said something a little different at that time.

Lighten up folks. He is moving to the middle on this to get mega votes from the centrists and stupid democrats. He has outsmarted the Dems at every turn and I see this as a big vote getter. A large part of the CFR stuff is most likely gonna get stuck down in court and the net result will be the things that GW wanted remaining + large centrist vote. Be smart peeps don't get too bent out of shape yet.

"It will probably take about three seconds to get to the W, I may hesitate on the period, and then rip through the Bush."

This just sounds dirty.

"Bush said that nonetheless the "bill is a better bill than the current system," but that some parts of it might not stand up to a court challenge."

So he's counting on SCOTUS. I can understand, since the section which does NOT define "political activism ads" is the section we don't want, and he does NOT have line-item veto power.

I keep thinking of the Bush nominees who have yet to be confirmed. I think of the time involved in getting "some parts of it" struck down, even if SCOTUS runs at comparitive warp speed. I STILL worry.

Great. I guess we can all thank President Bush for permanently eliminating any chance at the Republicans ever having a majority in either house of Congress again!! Thanks to Bush for destroying the Republican Party's majority and reducing it to permanent minority status. Henceforth the GOP will only be competitive at the presidential level. Say hello to Speaker Gephardt in 2004 when this thing takes effect! Speaker Hastert was right. This thing is nothing less than Armegeddon for the Republican Party, an outcome long sought after by traitor McCain and his Democrap cohorts, Daschle and Gephardt and now endorsed by Bush who has promised to sign the bill, thus repudiating any conservative and yes, Republican, principles he once had. And to think I thought we elected a President slightly to the right of Algore and Senator John McShame. What a rude surprise!!

"I won't hesitate" signing it, Bush said at a joint news conference with Salvadoran President Francisco Flores as the president wrapped up a four-day trip to Latin America. "It will probably take about three seconds to get to the W, I may hesitate on the period, and then rip through the Bush."

This is not funny. The only thing that should "rip" is this piece of trash called CFR.

With Clinton they wore presidential knee-pads.

With President Bush we wear presidential muzzles.

Don't be SHUT-UP--SHUT OUT! Call, E-mail President Bush--VETO-CFR!

We Must Protect First Amendment Rights. There is a clear and present danger emanating from congressional politicians and liberal mainstream media who gleefully strive to subvert our rights and forever silence We The People.

They full well know CFR is unconstitutional but still are deliberately testing the response of our reaction. Do we sit by idly twiddling our fingers? Or do we stand tall as freedom loving men and women and gallantly man the phones, the fax machines, flood the President's e-mail box? I ask you what is next on their goody list of unconstitutional legislation?

If George, Ben, Tom, John, Paul and the Boys of '76 were alive today they would be having one big old fashioned CFR Party and dump the whole nasty offensive offal legislation into the sewer where it belongs.

You call now for VETO or you call to order your muzzle. It is only up to you to put up a boisterous roaring ruckus for your Free Speech Rights.
