A Maryland Reader
Predicts That VDARE.Com Will Rue The Day It Began Bush
Bashing; etc.
From:
Paul
Fahlstrom
Congratulations!
You and your writers have managed to bash Bush and
the
Iraq war to the point that this week’s election
became non-local.
But really, you have now lost the battle.
Republicans fought the open borders crowd. But because
you helped create a tidal wave for the Democrats, now an
immigration tsunami will hit us and VDARE.COM is the
fault.
You are not very smart. Even though Bush is
weak on the borders, he couldn't
overcome his party in the house.
Now he has lost the House and VDARE.COM has done the
country great damage.
I
am particularly displeased with
Paul Craig Roberts who has lost all credibility.
Fahlstrom lives in the Baltimore area.
Peter Brimelow writes:
VDARE.COM does not take
sides in elections. But the fact is that Bush would
have read re-election as support of his proposed
amnesty. As it is, Bush's leadership is
completely discredited.
The deck has been
reshuffled. We don't yet know if the Democrats
really want to emerge as
the party of amnesty. And the GOP has a new opportunity
to emerge as America's Party.

A Texas Reader Predicts A
Republican Palace Revolt
From:
Don Reynolds
[e-mail
him]
I keep reading articles proclaiming that the November 7th
election is a repudiation of conservatives.
Don't you believe it for a second. Conservatives WON
the election
What was repudiated was monarchy. And the people
defeated were not conservatives but the court toadies
and
Tory Republicans that kept President George Bush's
veto stamp tucked in his drawer.
When Bush told the nation, "I
am the decider", I knew his rejection was
inevitable.
The people went to the polls and told Bush who the real
deciders are in this country…us!
I have yet to meet an American who gives a fig about
whether Iraqis have
democracy or not. The Iraq War has gone poorly.
Afghanistan is worse. Every week Americans are
subjected to more embarrassing news spun favorably for
Bush by his well-schooled team.
And on the subject of tens of millions of illegal
aliens, I have yet to meet an American who does not have
passionate feelings
for border security and against
amnesty and guest workers. And I live
in Texas!
Voters were more motivated by what has happened in
America than in Iraq, no matter what you may hear. Our
threats to American health and safety are much greater
from illegal aliens than from terrorists.
Bush's boss—the
American people—just fired a shot across his bow and
every ship in the Republican fleet watched it happen.
It may take a palace revolt to get a new direction for
that fleet, but it won’t be long in coming.

A California Reader Ponders The
Possibility of a Latino Political Party
From:
Robert Baker [e-mail
him]
An awful thought just occurred to me. What if sometime
during the next two decades the Latinos form
their own political party?
While the Democrats and Republicans are
licking their lips and bending over backwards—at
U.S. citizens’ expense—to cater to the Hispanic voting
block, would it be a big surprise to find out Latinos
are forming their own party?
They could give it a nice, all-inclusive
P.C. title like “The Human Rights Party.”
In this nightmare scenario, a
third political party of astounding size would
challenge the dominance of the ruling Democrats and
Republican establishments—virtually overnight.
Baker is a native Californian whose job, he says, “includes
interacting with
U.S. Veterans
everyday whose
opinions have never been anything but disdainful
toward America’s open door, pro-amnesty immigration
policies.”[PermaLink]

A Tennessee Reader and
Two-Time Bush Voter Is Not Surprised By The Rout
From:
[Name
Withheld]
I
supported President Bush in both elections but I wasn't
surprised by the
November 7th election results.
Bush and his Senate and House cohorts have continually
slapped their base in the face so many times over
the past six years that
President Ronald Reagan is rolling in his grave.
As for Bush's amnesty plan for 20 million lawbreakers,
that's a given now. [Joe
Guzzardi note:
Not necessarily!]
Does anybody really think that Bush loses one minute's
sleep over the consequences of illegal immigration? Or
that he cares one iota that illegals are
trashing and destroying
businesses and ranches in the Southwest day after
day?
Illegals aren’t
trampling all over Bush’s beloved
Crawford ranch, leaving behind their empty plastic
water bottles or
Wal-Mart bags behind.
Bush is no different than any other politician, spouting
off about what they think is good for the rest of us
while they live safely behind their
Secret Service Protection and send their kids to
private schools.
