And when the border has an "s" and INCLUDES White Canada, the minorities that keep handing Republicans defeat, will actually believe you.

Of course they won't. The GOP has been for years pushed and bullied by conservatives pretending to be the base of the Republican party. Fact is that they want nothing more than to destroy the only VIABLE party able to WIN elections against the Democratic party. They want it destroyed because they believe that out of their ashes will rise (as the GOP rose out of the Whigs) their Libertarian party. Sigh, take a page out of history, if there was a SINGLE issue that destroyed the Whigs, it was slavery...and once again, another single but lethal issue: Illegal Immigration (aka Mexican) is poised to do likewise to the GOP. It is an issue that Republicans lose over and over again. And there is a good reason why the Libertarians have to pretend to belong to a party they clearly hate, only 3% of the population will vote for them. Ask yourself, is the illegal immigration issue worth a weak military, a destroyed economy, gay marriage rights, lost of gun rights etc. etc.? Because that IS the cost of this insane insistence on an issue that has driven 9/11 Democrats, Independents and seniors out of the GOP camp. People who remember interment camps, required paperwork, and a wall that people cheered when it was torn down. People who will, as Hewitt used to say about the GOP's proposition 187 which tried to deny services to illegals, not allow GOPs to be elected dog catcher.

Actually, there were two things that helped Reagan, 1- he died so conservative media could idolize him AND attack Bush at the same time. Imagine if Reagan insisted on they following the command not to attack a fellow Republican and that part about agreeing with you most of the time. He could have shut down on the stupid disloyalty. 2-Reagan had great speech writers who rightly believed Reagan had magical words--of course he did, it was THEIRS! Thus his "wisdom" and "intelligence" was beyond question and the actor playing his greatest role was the greatest president because that was the role written for him. Sadly, as it was for Kennedy, when those who created the myth of Reagan is no longer here, history will show him correctly. Reagan was a good president who had his own problems like Contra-Arms and Libya fiasco...and genuine amnesty. Much more unfortunate is that Bush, who was a really great president whose mistakes were blown up, it may take equally as long and in the same circumstances (death) before people realize how incredible tearing down two terrorist regimes, stopping the rape rooms, and giving the bill of rights to two nations were. They will wonder at how this generation wouldn't allow him to set Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and Social Security right and avoid the financial collapse of 2008 which everyone with a brain saw coming (instead making him fight over an issue that the great Reagan "fixed" (illegal immigration) 20 years earlier). They will marvel at how this war time president managed to keep unemployment down and the economy up during most of his terms and how nations around the world respected America being the sole super power and loved his Secretary of State. And shake their heads to learn that he was hated and blamed for everything long after he left office, not just by the MSM but by conservatives who should know better.

Well if the dam does break, you know it will be Bush's fault. In order for Obama to be held accounted, conservatives have to stop joining their Liberal counterparts in blaming all things on Bush and the GOP...anyone seeing that happen anytime soon?

This is Obama's number 1 agenda because it makes conservatives look racist. EVERY time illegal means Mexican, border security means one border, and breaking the law means the immigration law not speeding or insisting on carrying a gun in states where it is against the law to do so without a permit, conservatives tell the rest of the minorities that it's all about rounding up and shipping out a race of people. EVERY time, conservatives demand that Mexicans show papers, generations of Jews remember when they their families had to do likewise. EVERY time, conservatives scream for the wall to be finished on ONE border, a whole generation remembers the proudest moment in Reagan's time, when he told another leader to "tear DOWN this wall". And EVERY time, conservatives question the right of birth of a born American because of his race, Japanese remember those internment camps. Obama raises this issue and conservatives jump to the bait because he KNOWS that the number one voting group is seniors--and they REMEMBER.

What's really stupid is that Ann wrote a book about how smart the Dems were to realize that they would lose the Black vote if they didn't stop trying to kill civil rights. She knew then but some how is unable to connect the dots. Blacks or any one race doesn't have the numbers to win elections; it's the rest of the races combined. Every time border security means one border (brown, not white Canada) and every time the talk of breaking the law doesn't seem to mean the millions coming on boats or crossing via Canada, racism rears its ugly head. Japanese remember being put in camps, Jews remember when they had to show papers, Chinese, Koreans, Alaskans, Hawaiians, and others whose ancestors hail from 3rd world poor nations remember being treated like second class citizens. And yeah, Black start flipping open their slavery cards. You can bet they are joining hands with their Mexican brothers--and voting to keep out minority hating Republicans. What did Hewitt say about proposition 187? This heavily backed bill to deny social benefits and education to illegal (aka Mexican) kids by the GOP made them unelectable in California. What goes beyond dumb is that Ann and her conservative media don't get it, their base is now the 3% Losertarians who can't keep her on the best seller's list and can't keep radio talk show going. Worst, that 3% determination to kill the only viable alternative to the Democratic party will cost this nation to slide to the Left and you and they can say hello to gay and unlimited abortion rights, to a weak military, and a shattering economy. But hey, the most important thing is getting rid of them Mexs right? Geez.

I know, I know. It looks like I'm wasting my time because election after election lost has taught nothing to the so called base. But you heard it here -- there will come a time when the conservative media will do another 180 and start supporting Republican candidates and their "reasonable" illegal immigration "solution". They will because they have to. There are too many listeners that they need to influence if they are going to make any difference. They will tell themselves what I have been telling you for years, the GOP has got to make the team to win the war--and bottom line, America's survival HAS to come first. And when you start hearing that, I hope you will finally understand the meaning of the first word in our name: UNITED. That means no one faction gets to rule without some compromise and principles HAS to have a foundation of loyalty.

The bottom line is: Other than in the border states, has illegal immigration been a WINNING issue? I mean just how many elections does Republicans have to lose before they get that all this Hispanic bashing that involves only ONE border in this so called border security problem LOSES not just Hispanic votes, but other minorities and those who remember when one race had to provide papers and when telling a leader to "tear down the wall" was considered the right thing. And how many elections will have to be lost before the conservative media get that if they keep catering to their very tiny base, they will lose any ability to change things because there is a reason why the 3% Losertarians don't win national elections and has to pretend to be Republicans. And most importantly, how long will it take before Losetarians get that they need the Republican party a lot more than the Republican party needs them? That there is no other VIABLE alternative to the Dems. Even the so called tea party has been tanking. This issue, no matter what side you come down on, is a losing issue. A FACT, Hewitt told his listeners 10 years ago BEFORE he did a 180 and jumped on the illegal immigration wagon. Why did he do it? Well, it could have been just a coincidence that it was after he was not invited to the White House as others who disagreed with Bush on this issue...or perhaps it had nothing at all to do with the fact that Bush had won re-election and could be attacked by the conservative media who spent years saying how awful the MSM was for attacking a war time president...

A very strong conservative once asked me why people kept voting for Liberals when socialism clearly did not work. I answered him thus: Romney was right when he said too many people depended on the government. But it's not just those benefiting from social services; it's all those people who don't really want to step in to help feed and house their poor relatives, ill parents, and down on their luck neighbors. Social programs, like it or not, allow the average worker the ability to, with perfect conscience save what money that would go to "help" to instead feed their own families, go on vacations, buy a nicer car, send their kids to a better school. It is the reason that most of Hollywood rich are liberals; why take their millions to give so many more unfortunate than they, when we can all "share" the burden? I always wondered how many elections the Republicans had to lose before the conservative media realized that candidates had to represent ALL of their people, not just those who agreed with them. And if they insisted on joining their Liberal counterpart in finding fault in all things Republican and Bush, Republicans would not get elected--and the conservative media would have no power as those in power have no reason to listen to them.

I'm sorry but here's the truth: the blame Bush saga would NEVER have been bought if conservatives hadn't joined their liberal counterparts. It was a ratings war and neither side cared about the truth. In fact, THAT is the sole reason why Obama has been getting away with lies that would have sunk anyone else before him: because for over a decade, the public had no other side to hear when Bush was (and still is) being blamed for everything. And now when the conservative media and their minions are screaming to be heard about real crimes of incompetence, the public is not only not listening; they do not believe. This is the price of journalistic prostitution and disloyalty.
