Letter: That sinking feeling

Editor, Daily News:

Moderate Republicans are going to be the death of the Republican Party. The moderates who voted for this ridiculous, so-called immigration bill ought to be voted out of office. They just couldn't be that much out of touch with the wishes of the American people, so what is their motive? Even Sen. Robert Byrd, D-W.Va., voted against it because he is coming up for election and he knows the desires of his state's voters.

The biggest phony is Arlen Specter, R-Pa., who wouldn't be in office today if George Bush hadn't gone to Pennsylvania to help him defeat a very decent conservative man in the primaries. Why do you do things like that, George?

(Specter also just voted against Gen. Michael Hayden's nomination to be director of the CIA.)

And then there is Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., another big phony, who is still so jealous of George Bush that he purposely does things to hurt him and in the process hurts his own country.

Any Republican, like McCain, who would vote with Sens. Ted Kennedy and Joe Biden, is suspect to me.

This bill is not the answer to the problem. This is amnesty and citizenship in disguise for illegal and unappreciative people. It even states that Mexico has to approve fences, etc., on our own border, while they mightily defend their own southern border. Is this Bizarro World or what?

We are depending on you Republicans in the House to stop this nonsense. And George, your mother needs to have a long talk with you!
