Bush has essentially said that he views this nation as a labor market, not as the home of the American people. It is too bad as I had really admired W. He has placed ambition before the country and I fault him for this. He is just another opportunist.

Very insightful comment and well put. "The business of this country is business." This announced plan will result in a massive push by those outside the US to get in before the plan gets through Congress. It reminds me of the Haitians who were building their boats in anticipation of Clinton being elected. Clinton made all kinds of statements during the campaign about how he was going to treat the Haitians like the Cubans when it came to welcoming refugees to our shores. Of course that changed once Clinton got into office. The only reason we went into Haiti was to eliminate the proposition that Haitians were political refugees. Hence, we could return them back to Haiti.

It reminds me of the Haitians who were building their boats in anticipation of Clinton being elected. There was a joke going around New York at that time:

"Did you hear what Clinton said about Roe vs. Wade?"

"No!"

" He said 'I don't care how the Hatians get here.'"

All too true.
