Another Bush betrayal sparking another Republican rebellion?

L-dotters comment on the alarming and confusing Mickey Kaus blog entry saying the president has not signed the Fence bill:

’Yes, I find it hard to believe that Bush would double-cross the pro-fence Republican base like that, a month before an election.’

Hey—we’ve been double-crossed by him before by duplicitous, phony, Clinton-like behavior. If it hasn’t happened yet, we’ll know for sure his allegiance is with Vicente Fox and Mexico..as it seems to have been right along.

After the watering down we read about the other day where they can spend the money “…on roads, technology and “tactical infrastructure” to support the Homeland Security Department’s preferred option of a “virtual fence.” the President has the opportunity to sign it with a “wink and a nudge-nudge” knowing that, in the end, nothing will be built.

So, what the American people were led to believe was being signed, and what was actually being signed, were two different things.

How Clintonesque.
