Are the Republicans commiting suicide?

The Foley scandal is nothing. What has people really pissed off is the Republican's (ie: Bush's) absolute failure to do anything about illegal immigration (some would say that they have been sabotaging enforcement). However, the Republicans are at least...or at least giving the illusion...of doing something. However, if they play stupid games like this with the fence bill, the Republicans will suffer mightily at the ballot box in Nov.
