The President has a mandate to reform a system that isn't working. Here are his exact words:
""We've got people living in the shadows of our society, and we've got a border patrol that's overstressed because we've got people streaming across," Bush said. "The system has broken down. ... And I think by legalizing work, we take a lot of pressure off our borders." "
Bush needs to close the borders completely before anyone should be considering legalizing the illegals already here.
We have the resources to completely close our borders. We need to close our borders almost completely and deport all violent illegals before I, and most others, will consider doing anything other than deporting and imprisoning the illegals already here.
Some people don't realize this is the biggest threat to out country. Our government must start enforcing our laws or the people must revolt and do it themselves. If one or the other doesn't happen then our Nation will FALL sooner or later.
