No More "Compassionate Conservative" Presidents nor Moderate Presidents! Why? Keep reading.
The folks over at “Opinionnation” have a very good summation of yesterday’s activity in the Senate as per the Southern Border. They also express our views exceedingly well!

This is one of those issues in which the people of the country are way ahead of the government.
If the government isn’t very careful the people will have outdistanced them and they will find themselves in the precarious position of playing catch up, in time for the election. It won’t help. The list has already been made of the politicians who will find themselves “job hunting” after November.
This is one of those defining moments in American history. The government is on the wrong side and history will record it as such.
Whatever happens as a result of this firestorm, these days are “markers” in the American story. The Southern Border WILL be secured. Either by the US government or by the US Citizens. If by the citizens of the US, the government will find itself greatly weakened and it’s influence over it’s own people will most certainly be diminished. For those of us who feel a strong central government is a curse on the US… that will be a blessing.
No matter. We will date historical events, in the future, from this event. THAT’S how important this is.
The GOP has just begun to realize their base is not with them and is, in fact, in revolt. How the hell they missed this fact for so long is simply beyond me. The GOP has managed to do what all the weeping and wailing hand wringers on the left have been unable to do since the election of 2000. They have seriously wounded the party. The President is now, officially, a lame duck. He does not have the support of his base and the remainder of his term in office will be marking time. When Ted Kennedy supports Bush, as he did yesterday, you have to know the conservative base has just backed away and slammed the door! It’s over.
The one bright spot in this whole mess, if there is one, is that the Democrat Party is faring even worse with the American people than the GOP. The Congress finds itself in less favor with the American people than the President!
It has become abundantly clear, in the past few months, that only true conservatives have the leadership qualities needed to guide this country out of the mess the liberals and the moderates have dragged us into. Is there any question that a conservative government would have slammed the door on Mexico, long ago, and made a good faith effort to round up the illegal aliens in our midst and deport them or imprison them. We sure as hell would not be trying to make citizens of them! Yet, that is exactly what the current administration and current Congress is trying to do.
I say again… this is a defining moment in American history. Beware, if you are on the wrong side of history!

Don't blame Liberals, there isn't enough og them to make a difference.... Shoot even as a "socialist" as I have been called I would have sealed the border long ago to protect wages and jobs for Americans. I agree it is the moderates!!!! liberals true liberal protectionists would have closed the borders so would have conservative isolationists..... same actions, different reasoning.... still good for the country. When you have no ideological compass, as most moderates do not, you can never do the right thing.
