Bush Slaps His Conservative Base in Face Over His Precious Illegals

Bush hits foes of alien bill ….for complete article
President Bush yesterday rebuked members of his own political party for trying to “frighten people” into opposing his immigration bill, prompting a quick backlash from some Republicans.

“Those determined to find fault with this bill will always be able to look at a narrow slice of it and find something they don’t like,” Mr. Bush said, speaking at a training center for immigration enforcement officials in Glynco, Ga.

“That’s hurtful language,” said Sen. Jeff Sessions, Alabama Republican. “If the bill did what they promised it was going to do, I’d support it. I’m for comprehensive reform, but it has to serve the national interests, not political interest.”

“Amnesty for 12-20 million illegal immigrants isn’t a ‘narrow slice’ … it’s the whole darn pie,” Mr. Bilbray said. “What part of illegal does the president not understand? The American people … don’t want another amnesty.”

Paul Weyrich, founder of the conservative Free Congress Foundation, said that “there are legitimate reasons to oppose this legislation, and I don’t think that it behooves the president to call people names or make accusations against them if they disagree with him.”

“He is angering people beyond belief to the point that the Republican Party is going to split in two, thanks to him. If this bill passes, the Republicans will not recover from it,” Mr. Weyrich said.

An aide to one Republican senator who is usually a close White House ally said that Mr. Bush had questioned the patriotism of lawmakers who are concerned about granting amnesty to illegal aliens.

“It not only stretches the bounds of credibility with conservative Republicans but in fact, it further erodes their confidence in this administration,” said the aide, who asked that his name not be used.

Mr. Weyrich said the president was repeating the mistake he made in 2005 when he nominated Harriet E. Miers, Mr. Bush’s White House counsel at the time, to the Supreme Court. Miss Miers removed herself from consideration after intense opposition from conservatives.

Mr. Bush denounced those who are “out there hollerin’ and saying, ‘Kick ’em out,’ ” saying such an approach “is simply unrealistic. It won’t work.”

Oh but there is MORE………………
Bush confronts immigration deal skeptics ….for complete article
President Bush attacked opponents of an immigration deal Tuesday, suggesting they “don’t want to do what’s right for America.”

“Those determined to find fault with this bill will always be able to look at a narrow slice of it and find something they don’t like,” the president said. “If you want to kill the bill, if you don’t want to do what’s right for America, you can pick one little aspect out of it.

Bush chastised those who say the proposal offers amnesty to illegal immigrants. He called it empty political rhetoric.

Wild Thing’s comment…………
There they go again, trying to paint their opponents as uneducated “bigots”, but this time, it’s the president himself doing it to members of his own party.
I want to to see existing laws enforced, the borders secured and economic disincentives instituted to facilitate the self-removal of illegals from our country.

“He is angering people beyond belief to the point that the Republican Party
is going to split in two, thanks to him. If this bill passes, the Republicans will not recover from it,” Mr. Weyrich said.”

Wake up Mr. Weyrich…Bush does NOT care about having divided the party. He made that LOUD and CLEAR
by pushing comprehensive immigration reform in a critical election year, risking and losing both the House
and the Senate and now his amnesty and open borders conspirators are in charge.
People that break the laws of this land from the first day they set foot across the border are more
than likely to disrespect our laws and break more of them later. Case and point, they interviewed an
illegal on the news the other day and he was laughing about being able to get any kind of ID he wanted
for the right price.

An aide to one Republican senator who is usually a close White House ally said
that Mr. Bush had questioned the patriotism of lawmakers who are concerned about granting amnesty
to illegal aliens.

Bush has used this accusation to death. He’s no longer a leader. Whining about opposition to a bill
that enables the destruction of American society makes him look like a spoiled, petulant child at best.

“It takes a lot of courage in the face of some of the criticism in the political world
to do what’s right, not what’s comfortable. And what’s right is to fix this system now before it’s
too late,” the president said.

Is he talking about himself? What’s right, Mr. Bush, is to uphold the law and preserve the
sovereignty of the U.S. What’s right, Mr. Bush, is to serve the people of the United States not the
other way around.

If you want to scare the American people, what you say is the bill’s an
amnesty bill,” Mr. Bush said.

No, Mr. President.What scares the American people,is the thought of this bill passing! Does this
illegal lover think we are a nation of 4 year olds? Frightened??? We’re pissed off!!!!
Bush has turned on his own people, his political supporters, his citizens, his conservative base,
and the integrity of America in general. This is truly something that will live in history for a very
long time. Shame be upon this effort and all of those malfeasants in Washington that are doing
this to our country -— that USED TO BE a representative republic.
I don’t give a flying fart about Bush anymore, that feeling has been growing for a long time
now, but I am concerned with that it is our country that is at stake.
It is WE THE PEOPLE who run this country, not the other way around and it’s damned time
we stood up and did something about it.
Of all the things he needed to fight the liberals over, he chooses to attack his own base for
wanting to protect our nation’s sovereignty.
