If it were just Bush's comment by itself, I wouldn't really make too much of it- he's a horrible public speaker and regularly puts his foot in his mouth. However, this seems to be a concerted effort to demonize opposition to the bill when you look at the other comments people are making on his behalf. Again, it really reminds me of the Harriet Meyers debacle and I suspect it will work out just as well for the administration this time....

Oh I know you werent serious, Im just grasping at any glimer of hope I can find.

Is this really much different from what the democrates have been doing before? Support boarder control and you're atomaticaly a freedom hating racist.

Not that I agree with the tacti hopefully we can get above name calling.

It looks as though he is looking for a consensus and has managed to make everyone Anti- Bush. Congratulations Mr President.

Like Gawain said, he's finally becoming a uniter - soon everyone will hate him.

The really sad part of all this is that we must put up with another year and a half of his non-sense. I shudder to think how much lower he can go and will he be able to drag the country with him. And to think I had such high hopes for Bush when he was elected. Now I just wish he'd go away.

I'm intrigued by the levels of conservative disillusionment that have developed over the last couple of years.

Just as a straw poll, is there anyone here who would vote for George W Bush again - on his merits and record to date - should it be possible?

I know much of the political process depends on choosing between candidates, but I'm interested to see if any supporters still have some confidence in President Bush.
