It all means what you mean a sell out. I understand the business concerns. I also understand we need these Mexicans working here. I cant imagine what would happen in Texas if all the illegals would disappear. On the other hand I dont want terrorist comming over the border and I dont want people living here forever without becoming citizens and becoming inculturated into America. The border issue is a tough one because no can talk about it rationally and compromise on it. However as to Middle Eastern terrorism and other aspects of National Security I think he has been quite good. The problem is Al Quadia cannot controll how business is run and our relations with other countries financial or otherwize. To do so would be a victory for them in itself. Again I am not sure why Bush is suddenally getting hammered on a problem no President has been able to get a hold on either
The open border advocates (Bush, Chamber of Commerce, etc.) can't talk about it because they can't say: "We support illegals coming here by the millions solely because it makes our businesses more profitable by making labor cheaper, and we stick the taxpayers with bill for the social services."
You know and I know that is the truth, but it doesn't make for a very good sound bite, does it? So they make up a bunch of other stuff to say, all of it risible.
So Bush has Amnesty papers in one hand, I don't trust what he might have in the other with this Port deal.
