The cost for the Bush administration getting a seat at the table is still building the fence first.
Stand firm and keep the phone handy. It’s not over.
If you go to Whitehouse.gov, there is a link in the upper lefthand corner that says En Espanol. Now that is sad.
Bring it, by God, on!
And remember the frikkin fence while you are at it!
Just abolish Welfare and they’ll be lining up for those jobs “ that Americans won’t do”

The problem with the fence is that it will work, that’s why they fear it. Bush’s crowd enjoys the short term profits of depressed wage rates and diminishing the “American lifestyle.” If the wall didn’t work they’d gladly give it to appease us “yahoos.”
I’ll miss the Rovian circumlocutions about how an amnesty is not an amnesty.
Great article, Mark. He nails it. The WH is cracking down to apply pressure on Congress by employers to pass some sort of comprehensive immigration reform by doing what the law requires. What a novel approach!!!

This is far from over. Bush is crazy on this subject...an arrogant, globalist elitist that loves Mexicans to the point of stabbing his own people in the back over them.
Keep his AWAY from the table. And build the fence.
Predictable.
“Or as DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff put it, “There will be some unhappy consequences for the economy out of doing this.””
Uhhhhhh - earth to Chertoff - there are already devastating consequences to our economy and way of life. Where did you park your squad care, dude?
“The cost for the Bush administration getting a seat at the table is still building the fence first.”
AGREE!
Currently he is in the doghouse.

I have no regard whatsoever for 750 miles of fence.
We have roughly 4000 miles of border and thousands more miles of coast.
I want it totally controlled.
On the other hand, it may energize the repub base in time for ‘08.
Interesting timing though. Just as the long-awaited subprime meltdown sets off the long-awaited economic downturn, steps are being taken to reduce the excess labor pool that would inevitably emerge.
If The USA needs a large number of uneducated and unskilled workers who can’t speak English, we should establish a quota for uneducated and unskilled workers who can’t speak English, and allow them in legally. Somehow, I think this would be a very small number.
Since they're the ones that are benefiting...getting all the 'free' money from withholding taxes, etc., don't expect the letters to go out anytime soon.
