Despite this article being incorrect, it is very poorly written - my 8th grader can write a better opening paragraph than this - the last sentence in the opening paragraph is just kind of hanging there - lol

Seldom will two people agree 100% on everything. But the one thing we do seem to be in agreement here is that we support our President, and his support of the Constitution, values, etc. Where in the President's State of the Union address did President Bush say that there wouldn't be "more control of illegal immigration"? This is the message that I heard (emphasis mine):
America's immigration system is also outdated -- unsuited to the needs of our economy and to the values of our country. We should not be content with laws that punish hardworking people who want only to provide for their families, and deny businesses willing workers, and invite chaos at our border. It is time for an immigration policy that permits temporary guest workers to fill jobs Americans will not take, that rejects amnesty, that tells us who is entering and leaving our country, and that closes the border to drug dealers and terrorists.
I haven't heard (or read) any evidence that equates President Bush's "guest worker" program with open borders. My take on it is that it's one of the steps he hopes we take to gain better control of our borders.
