My son does not go to Iraq to protect this nation, and you leave the border open.

No.

Don’t I feel like a fool after defending this jerk in the past.

Remember, we didn’t primarily defend the man as we defended the specific issue.

War on terror, economy — these issues should be defended when the president is right. And unlike Dhimmicrats, when the president is wrong, we let him (and everyone else) know.

Viva la differance…

There is no more defending Bush on anything….

This is true true. Don’t I feel like a fool after defending this jerk in the past. No more. The sooner he goes the better. Benedict Boosh.

The Dems are so hypocritical, they cry for a higher minimum wage constantly, and “a decent living wage for every American” then they de-facto drive wages down (in some cases way down), by keeping our southern border wide open.

God save the Republic.

Exit question: How does dismissing your own base as racist make Hispanics more eager to align with that base?

The next GOP presidential candidate will articulate traditional values and wont need the votes of one issue Hispanics to get elected.

Doing more harm than a real one.

Vaya con diablos.

“If Trent Lott and his other buddies up on the Hill aren’t listening to ‘talk,’ then what are they listening to? The answer is either their wallet or their legacy.”

Virtual fence in Arizona not doing so good.

If the NYT supports Mr. Bush, or writes remotely favorably about him, on any topic, all indicators are that something is untoward.

Prostitutes liars and crooks all.

+ my 2 cents.

I am the walrus

Isn’t that a south of the border mustache?

I just needed to get my mind off the harikari of the GOP…

Exit question: How does dismissing your own base as racist make Hispanics more eager to align with that base?

Last week, United Farm Workers Union Cofounder Dolores Huerta told about 800 TUSD students that “Republicans hate Latinos.”

Hard to imagine a political party that does not believe in voting for the peoples largess as having too many fans in the poor immigrant population.
The GOP loses the money pander for votes competition every time.

I love that he is using the same arguement that was used on Schwartz to lick the flagpole in A Christmas Story.

In other words, it doesn’t matter who seems to be on the hispanics’ side at this moment, what matters is who the leaders of the hispanic political machines will tell their constituents to vote for year in and year out in the decades ahead. Who do you think that will be?

And of course all this assumes

a) hispanics are overwhelmingly in favor of amnesty and open immigration, and

b) an hispanic vote is worth more than the vote of a traditional Republican constituent who is strongly against the amnesty and open immigration.

a) is false; hispanics are split, and mostly against illegal immigration;

b) may be true in the moral calculus of political journalists, but it’s not true in the strict constitutional sense of one man, one vote; if anything hispanics are worth less at the moment in the elecotral college because they are mostly clumped in two non-battlegrounds, CA and Texas. The hispanic vote is mostly valuable like the black vote, in gerrymandered districts. Again, which party is going to win the urban ethnic machine battle in those districts every election cycle?

I don’t believe there is much idealism in the shamnesty bill. It’s simply stuffing the pockets of the politicians with corporate donations, to the left and the right. They stuff them fairly commensurate with who is in power, right now the ratio being 51/40% left/right. The politicians know the country is pretty evenly devided on philosophy – they don’t even care any more who’s in the minority, so long as they all stay in and weild some power. Prostitutes all.
