It's really a battle between optimism and pessimism, and optimism is a far better path, IMHO.

DPS intelligence reports said Mexico-based rings were responsible for half of all homicides in Maricopa County. These are the kind of problems that Buchanan acknowledges and Bushbot's ignore. Ignoring problems and acting like they dont exist is not optimism.

So you brand Buchanan pessimistic and Bush optimistic. How lovely. You know the rest of the liberals simply brand themselves politically correct. They got it all covered in advance.

Of course, you just highlighted another reason why Buchanan is an irrelevant side-show: His slash-and-burn style, is, in my opinion, just as bad as the fact that he has been completely wrong on foreign policy, and if you want my opinion, stuck in the 1920s.

Isn't your Senator McCain also strongly FOR illegal immigration on a perverted view of the "melting pot" theory? Why does AZ tolerate McCain? Will he have a primary opponent in 2004?

The neo-Cons believe in living forefather's as the liberals believe in a living Constitution.

Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.
