I think, in time, you will see progress from this President on the issue of immigration (as I have told you before). I am an optimist, and I believe without a doubt that President Bush loves this country, and will not do anything to deliberately harm it.
The progress made will never be fast enough or large enough for you, but I believe it will be made. I do not believe that his free trade stance comes before the safety of this country. I do not believe that he is as much in love with Vicente Fox as you and your friends claim he is.
He is smart, and he is a diplomat, but he is no man's fool, and he has made a strong stand for American sovereignty abroad........perhaps more than any President in recent history.
I am truly sorry that you are so very angry, but nothing I say will assuage that anger. In 2008, when his Presidency is over, I believe you will see that much progress has been made toward your goals. I just hope you will open your eyes enough to see it.
I am always amazed at people such as yourself, optimists, that even when confronted with the facts, deny them, just refuse to accept what a man says at face value and maintain with sincere hearts that he really doesn't mean it. As far as loving his country, Hitler loved Germany, that's no indication that harm cannot be done to a country, deliberate or not, loved or not.
Here is what Bush said, and I quote:
"By nominating me for President, my Party has willingly embraced the New America."
"But the ultimate goal will remain constant ... free trade from northernmost Canada to the tip of Cape Horn."
I don't want to insult you, but you would never make a good horse trader because you seem unwilling to ask some pretty important questions, like, what is wrong with the "Old America" that we should want to replace it with the "New America"? Define the "New America" in plain and simple terms, for one thing we know it means NAFTA and open borders from "northmost Canada to Cape Horn" that means no sovereign borders. Guess where everyone is going to head? Not Chili I can assure you, guess again.
You can support this if you wish, so far it's a free country and you can still do that, personally I don't intend to end up with a three legged horse.
An indication to me that a person is a Christian is that if they make an oath, especially with their hand on the good book, they keep it. An indication to me that a man loves his country is that he protects, obeys, and upholds it's laws and constitution. An indication to me that a man is compassionate, is that he is compassionate first to his own people and his own nation. An indication to me that a man is charitable, is that his charity begins at home, a home with boundries and borders.
Bush has been President of the entire Western Hemisphere at the expense of American citizens. We have suffered the worst attack in our history because of our visa policies. He had a chance to be great, to go down in history as the greatest President all the way back to George Washington. Instead he has chosen globalism, the path to destruction of all I hold dear, I'm not voting for that.
