Do you know Bush called for an amnesty/guest worker program way back in 2001? Obviously he knows there's a problem it's just the solution he's seeking that has most people disagreeing with him on.

we call it the "Bush Shamnesty", as trademarked by another freeper
Please. His "solution" is to make the problem ten times worse.
Bush is not the first POTUS to offer amnesty...essentially you have to start somewhere.
I understand that illegal immigration is a problem, but I also understand that I benefit from the labors of illegal immigrants...rightly or wrongly, many are already in service positions, which enable and better my life and lives of others around me...but an illegal immigrant is an illegal immigrant, is an illegal immigrant, right? So, what do you do? Do you mine the border? Do you have Predator drones surveil the boder using deadly force against families trekking across the NM desert? It's a tough call.
Honestly, and perhaps ironically, my answer is probably the most militant of all...place the pressure on Vicente Fox..tell him, he either solves Mexico's corruption problem...and border issues...or we will for him, Teddy Roosevelt style...because in the end...the Root cause of Southern Illegal immigration, is sadly, Mexico herself.
