While I was not pleased by much of the Presidents plan, what the democrats would do is scary.
It's more what they wouldn't do. Part of the problem is that nothing was done during the 90's under the Clintoon administration, which set up 9/11, and led to the current problems with illegal immigration today. Bush has tried to placate it, which, in essence, did nothing but fan the flames over the last 5 years.
What the "damn"ocrats are doing, is nothing but a bunch of lip service and lies....if they get a significant core of the republican base fired up on the issue, they'll keep banging their drum...pretending they care.
Dollares to doughnuts, they won't do a thing about it if they retake congress (or heaven forbid, the WH).
Just my .02
