Former President George W. Bush is “disturbed” by the "rhetoric" in the current immigration debate.
Bush attended an event at the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Ark., on Thursday with former President Bill Clinton, CNN reported.
He said the current immigration debate “undermines the goodness of America.”
"I think it doesn't recognize the valuable contributions that immigrants make to our society," Bush said. "And it obscures the fact — the rhetoric does — that the system is broken and needs to be fixed." There has been a national debate over handling immigration after the Trump administration implemented what it calls a “zero tolerance” policy to prosecute all adult migrants who enter the country illegally.

System broken blah blah blah. There is nothing broken about the system except illegals coming in. Any needed adjustments to legal immigration have nothing to do with a “broken” system.
I said it 15 years ago and I say it again...Jorge Delano Arbusto can go F#$% Himself.
I have had enough of Jorge Boosh. I defended this man for years even when he failed to defend himself and those that voted for him.
No I do not recall him doing that, even as Obummer blamed everything on him for 8 years.
GWB, please be quiet. When you make a point of slamming our hard working republican president, you remind me of your silence during the Obola years. That makes me want to reply with a great deal of profanity. Does the gardener need any help today? Maybe you should ask him. You can sit in his mower and sip your iced lemonade. You could even wear some colorful socks if you want to!
I was just thinking that.
Imagine the shit storm we’d be in the middle of if that mentally handicapped Idiot were to have been elected President.
Im disturbed you let the house of Saud hit us on 911 while you blamed everybody who stood in the way of their pipeline.
He can take his bucket head brother with his mexican munchkin wife with him.
I’m disturbed that any Republican is good buddies with the serial rapist Bill Clinton.
I used to have some respect for this man but not any longer. It is all gone.
Pendejo!
GWB: When we were satisfied with the status quo.
Please let some of the elite decide to cut this loser loose and implicate him in some cartel’s actions here or in Mexico.
Obviously pushed into this by Laura. Site was too annoying to read, but I saw excerpts of his speech earlier. I’m surprised he has fallen into the trap of conflating illegal entry with immigration.
Foolish.
It perplexes me why conservative voters EVER supported this guy. Was he truly the best option available back in 1999/2000? In the entire country? Him?
I guess that some moderator took umbrage with my comment. Oh, well. There are still Shrub supporting Never Trumpers among us. They are not growing in numbers, though. Thank God.
GWB. Following in the footsteps of Carter and Obama, and struggling to get to the top of the list of worst presidents ever.
Right now I hold him in more contempt than Carter. Carter has always been a tool. At one time I actually thought GWB was an honorable man.
Yep, that’s pretty much how I feel about GWB too, and his father!
“I think it doesn’t recognize the valuable contributions that immigrants make to our society,” Bush said.
The debate is not about immigrants. Its about illegal aliens. Its about people wanting to jump the line in front of people doing it the right way. Immigrants do add valuable contributions. Those contributions are sucked up by the illegal aliens!
So GWB you are disturbed by how the media portrays the President. Welcome to the club.
