Conservative it is then.

I kinda doubt the repubs have really changed all that much though. I suspect that what we have now is a combination of events that has lead to the unveiling of those bastards for what they (and i am referring to all politicos here) really are;

--illegal labor is an issue that has MAJOR impact on political funding (in a bad way)

--W is from an area where many people know first hand just how nice it can be paying illegals minimum $$ and offering no benefits, workers comp, etc.

--W is a dumbass. That is, he is dense enough to believe that he can wave a flag and get everybody into a war dance while he sneaks millions of illegals into the country to help his buddies. He is also simple enough to believe that the citizens of this country will lose interest in this issue if he shoves it down our throats and moves on to the next thing.


So i believe the effect of all this is akin to Toto pulling back the curtain and exposing Oz for who he really is. We weren't SUPPOSED to have this as an issue. We weren't SUPPOSED to notice so damn many uninsured, illegal people running around. We weren't SUPPOSED to give a **** when Congress tried to slide em all in on the QT. W, IMO, has effed up big time in letting this become an issue and my guess is that when Senators get together for poker games they all grumble about what a mess W has made of their master plan. He really is just too much of a thickheaded imbecile to keep this out of the public eye.

i'm glad it is front and center and, in a way, am greatful that W is such a dimwit.
