Look, I always liked Bush, liked him a lot. I am a supporter and charter member of his library.
He suffered from idealism, in that he thought arab countries could become democracies. Well, maybe in a thousand years.
He is also sympathetic to Mexicans.
But I’m not gonna have a knee jerk reaction to some excerpts posted on the main stream media. You know that they do, and yet you jump to their bidding.
Laura Ingraham is playing the actual audio. I'm surprised there are no news articles or audio or video clips of the speech available yet.
But what's been reflected here so far doesn't adequately describe how insulting most opponents of Bush's amnesty schemes would find the remarks.
I hope these remarks will be distributed and heard widely very soon.
You are doubly wrong because there are no MSM reports so far, only the recorded words of the man himself.
I'll wait to hear the whole speech.
The "excerpt" (and the "anonymous source" trick too BTW) has been used to a disgusting degree by the left and I hate to see the right do it too.
I'll wager that Bush said some mighty pro-American things in that speech also but I doubt we'll be hearing about those.
