Bush selling out America

Does anyone really believe Bush's plan will solve the illegal immigration problem? This plan only proves that greed is a higher priority than the opinion of most Americans, their common sense and their national security.

Well put.

Know this feeling?
">
Please President Bush,Defend our borders
can the PC, and the plea's to appease!


or we might end up with something like this...

Real security, would mean
No to this feeling



Or to have to worry about those
who choose to cross us



With an agenda...

I agree with you. Bush should do something about illegal immigration. Sadly, the best we can hope for is no change. The worst is the amnesty he wants. There is no political will to stop illegal immigration from either party. Illegal immigration politically benefits both parties. Business like them for cheap labor and for keeping American wages from rising. Democrats like them as voters because they are easier to get to the polls than the dead. Moreover, the changes to the immigration system are making legal immigration more difficult so more people will be here illegally. It's almost like the government wants to have a serf underclass. An employer can pretty much do as he pleases with an illegal because the illegal can't complain. Not only are they cheaper to hire, but since they are here illegally, they don't have all the different employment regulations on their backs, too.

Hence, nothing is going to change. And I'm speaking as a legal immigrant from Canada.

"He did. Greed."

How is Bush personally profiting from this? That is the question. It is easy to say that greed was a motivating factor when Clinton gave the Chi-Coms satellite technology for campaign contributions and gifts. How does GWB get compensated by selling his country out as is suggested by this article?

" I'm gonna have to agree. "

I'm with you !

I think maybe the greed he is talking about, is not necessarily personal, individual profit.

...the time is coming when all these party loyalists are going to wake up and see that NEITHER party is interested in the good of the country. They are only interested in power and money.

You are correct! We fought hard to finally gave the RINO's the power to change things. For the most part, all they have shown us is they are merely more hogs feeding from the trough.

Simple minds think alike.

" You are correct - but who is the main person pushing the latest amnesty program?

I give up. Who?

Many things that this administration has done has surprised the conservative wing of the party, overspending for one, the rest of it, the illegal immigration issue, welfare for the katrina evacuees,katrina and cruise ships, homes built special for katrina evacuees, all of that is making a lot of people nervous.

What a loon. Bush bashing in the morning...smells like defeat!

"I wish the writer had given a reason that Bush would want to do this." -Carolyn

I DEMAND the writer, evidently a mindreader, give reasons why Bush is ignoring the border crisis. I do not attribute "greed" nor powerlust to Pres. Bush' character nor to his subconscious motives. The border crisis did NOT suddenly appear after Bush's presidency followed the Clintons' 8 years. However, after 9/11 terrorist attacks, securing the borders should have been an immediate response. Of course, if Bush has done so, "our" liberal-leftists aka as Democrats would then scream "nazi-fascist-racist police state". To the pathological Left, national security measures translate to a "loss of freedoms" and imposed fascism. Patho-logical = diseased logic.

"It would be more accurate to say that government has been and is still selling out America."

Yes, obviously. I suspect both parties.

[CDHart]

"NEITHER party is interested in the good of the country. They are only interested in power and money."

Now THAT'S the truth, IMO. And I'm getting really sick of supporting them in the style to which they have become accustomed.

"New guest workers will be allowed to stay for six years before they go home ---- but who will make them go? For the past five years, Bush has failed to deport people, even when he knows they are here illegally."

For any Bushbot to claim this disaster is not amensty is simplying lying. By all measures illegal immigration has increased under his watch because of his pronouncements that they will not be shipped back.

[purpleland]

"It would be more accurate to say that government has been and is still selling out America."

I'll second that notion! All problems point directly to CONGRESS and its self-serving tenured career politico-demagogues. Advocate Term Limits!

[satchmodog9]

Both parties are complicit in this and they have made it nearly impossible for an opposition to become a legitimate challenge. The two parties are doing a divide and conquer towards a unified goal.

[A. Pole]

Interesting sentence. This could have come out of the Democrat Underground website. And I've never heard of this guy's organization before.

Great answer. You defended Bush position brilliantly!

[chris1]

After 9/11 he could have, should have, and had an obligation to secure the border. To always blame the libs for our not doing what should be done is tired, lazy, and infantile. GWB has become simply not credible anymore because of this.

How in good conscious can he talk about the Iraq border while ours is a sive?

Look on any corner or go shopping in any mall, these invaders are slowly suffocating us to death like the frog in ever increasingly warm water who dies a slow death.

[JimRed]

he continues to destroy our country simply out of greed.

Definition of greed: Excessive desire for more than one needs or deserves: acquisitiveness, avarice, avariciousness, avidity, covetousness, cupidity, graspingness. Informal : grabbiness.

Though his border policies are not acceptable, greed does not strike me as a motivation. Would that trait not have shown up earlier in his life?

Articles like this which presume an unproven motivation hurt as much as they help, since they sound like the left's mantra and risk being ignored.
