Gee, I wonder why that is?
Heck, everyone is calling it amnesty except for Bush.
What do you expect when ignorant people read the crap or hear it from someone else equally ignorant of the facts.
No body expected that the rhetoric would emerge this way. Bush did not intend it to be so.
The use of the term is what is causing the increase in crossings.
The use of a faulty descriptive rhetorical term.
Indeed...because it's an amnesty.
