How do you mean? Are you saying that DeLay will have his way and get tough on illegals, or Bush will push through an amnesty type bill with the help of DeLay? I'm really hoping deLay follows through on these promises. I always liked him, but now I have alot more respect for him and I will support him forever if he keeps his promises.
It is my opinion, anyway, that DeLaw is probably speaking for Bush here. I doubt the Pres wants to come out and be this aggressive, so it seems like a good idea to have DeLay do it. Do you agree that for DeLay to come out this strong he probably is representing the White House position?
My money's on your second option.
Close. If you want to know what President Bush wants to do all you have to do is listen carefully to what HE says, not what the press says he said or what Chaney or Frist or Delay say on his behalf.
Like WMDs in Iraq. President never once said that there were currently WMDs in Iraq did he ever give the EXISTENCE of WMDs as a reason for invading Iraq, but the press wasn't listening carefully and confused his statements with those of Powell, Chaney, Rumsfeld, etc...
The president has said he wants a guest worker program and he wants more security on the border. In the end Tom DeLay will work to deliver the votes for those two things.
And when the bills are enacted the issue will be over, just like all other issues ended after the legislation was enacted and new issues on new proposed legislation will supplant them. That's just the way the world works.
