President Bush yesterday said illegal aliens who take part in his guest-worker program would not be allowed to stay permanently. They would never go home.
After living here for six years there would be about a million sympathetic news reports about Juan and Juanita and their children, home, church, school, jobs, community, and the roots we all put down in six years. They will never go back to Mexico
President Bush, Call me, I'll bet everything I own against everything you own that there will be no large resettlement of Mexican temporary workers back to Mexico.
What Bush asserts was true at one time. Mexicans were generally uncomfortable in a culture in which there were so few like them. They would work and go back to their culture. Now As the largest minority (much of that honor stolen) hispanics can now come and are very comfortable as their can find their unadulterated culture in most every area. Few will leave. Bush knows this. Bush is a post-nationalist. We are a region now not a country.
