I'm convinced that the apologists are somehow benefiting from illegal immigration, or that they value party over principle.
All one needs to do to be convinced that President Bush is WRONG on this one is to visit one of the border states and take a good look at the crumbling infrastructure and the astonishing emergence of Mexican colonias.
We are importing poverty, crime, disease, dependence and ignorance with the help of our own President. America is angry!
Remember that some of the apologists are foreigners themselves.
