CMAC51, you are one of the only people on these posts that has a brain! You are so right about the liberal courts blocking all efforts to enforce the laws on the books that are already in place to deal with the illegals. No one else has brought up this point, all seem just too happy to bash Bush. DU is delighted over the Bush-bashing over here!
Ah, yes, it's all the fault of the liberal courts. If enforcing our immigration laws and defending our borders were a priority to Bush, he would highlight the need to defend our borders and enforce our laws and point out the great damage caused by illegal immigration. After 9/11, this would not be a tough sell.
Instead, he resurrects the amnesty plan that was in the works before 9/11, warbles about how wonderful the illegals are, and apologizes because our laws aren't "humane." The simple fact is that Bush has no intention whatever to enforce our immigration laws or defend our borders, and he wants to give business the right to import unlimited amounts of low-wage, Third World labor whenever it wants.
