>>Can someone please explain Bush's apparent lack of logic on border control?<<
Well, here is a theory, but I don't like it: He knows something we don't. And I mean something big. Put on your tinfoil and start speculating. Think of it as a brainstorming session. That is, in the first pass, no idea is too whacky.
Possibilities:
1. Some economists are correct and our economy is about to implode, so we need the cheap labor to stave off the invevitable.
2. Blackmail is involved.

When someone acts this far out of character, there is something going on behind the scenes.
No, it's entirely within Bush's character and he has done little to hide it. Bush was quite clear about his open borders philosophy 4 years ago when he lobbied Congress to pass the 245(i) amnesty bill. Most republicans just wrote it off as meaningless posturing...it wasn't. Bush is very much serious about his intentions to fully integrate Mexico and Canada with the U.S. and that means unrestricted immigration.
Well... I don't know but, IMO, it has to do with family ties.
