what is the enforcement mechanism for the aliens' return to their countries once their work permits expire?

Good question, I pointed that out in post 214. Note, I disagreed with Bush's logic.

You: Good question, I pointed that out in post 214. Note, I disagreed with Bush's logic.

Ah, so you did. Fair enough. Then, in #214 you said that Bush had moved to the right on the issue with this speech. You backed it up with three examples in your #240. Considering that the President's speech did not advocate a real fence, did not advocate a serious increase in border personnel, and did not advocate any sort of enforcement mechanism for his guest-worker program, do you see his move as more of a twitch, or do you think his proposals would have a substantive impact on the problem?
