Why has Bush refused to militarize and close the Mexican border?

What? And risk offending millions of GOP-leaning Hispanic voters? You must be kidding!

Why has Bush refused to militarize and close the Mexican border?

My guess is #1, hispanic votes and #2, Mexican oil. Whoever captures the bulk of the hispanic vote will remain in office. Bush is greasing the skids for his successors. We get one hell of a lot of our oil from Mexico. My guess is Fox has reminded Bush of that on many occasions....
