You're right. President Bush has plenary authority over the Essex County legal system and he administers it directly from his secret New Jersey Situation Room in the White House basement.

Yeah I forgot, the Essex County legal system is in charge of the nations borders, silly me.

Anyone besides suspected terrorists on the no-fly list can fly into the United States. You don't know if the visitor is truly a visitor or if they are intending to overstay a visa and live in the US illegally. The President cannot read the minds of every foreign national.

Essex County was the government that discovered he was not just a visitor, but an illegal resident of this country. They did not approach the INS to identify him and initiate deportation proceedings.
