Frankly, I think it's time to put a stake in the heart of this crap permanently. That meant this had to become law.

How silly of you. Let's stand up and veto it; then we can debate it for the rest of our lives. Not to mention giving the Dems AND the press a huge issue.

Not to mention giving the Dems AND the press a huge issue.

I've seen this mentioned over and over again as though it's fact. I think there is as great a likelihood that Bush will be bashed by the media for his flip-flop on this issue. IOW, he may as well do what's right, since he'll take the heat either way.

So now we worry about the left wing press that is NEVER going to do anything but crucify consrvatives

SCREW THEM
Let Bush use the Bully Pulpit like a true leader and explain how the average persons freedom of speech is threatened

Gawain, in case you were wondering why, I only included you in the "To" bar as a "courtesy copy".

Howlin:

"How silly of you. Let's stand up and veto it; then we can debate it for the rest of our lives. Not to mention giving the Dems AND the press a huge issue."

Now I finally get it. How silly of me to argue principle and integrity when the discussion is about the "acquisition and maintenance of political power" regardless the cost.

God, I have a thick skull. I think I will join Sir Gawain in the "think tank" and leave the "politicking" to you who are more suited to handle it.

Honest question time again, do you actually represent the mainstream thinking of the rank and file Republicans these days?
