Year 2000 GOP's Bush Calls for Increasing Legal Immigration Levels

George W. Bush endorses the "demographic revolution" that Bill Clinton said he hoped would end "European culture" in America, the GOP presidential hopeful went on to call for a lifting of the legal limits on immigration.

In an interview ignored by the liberal press, as well as his GOP rivals, Bush told the editorial board of the Cedar Rapids Gazette, that "we ought to increase legal immigration." ......

Family values don't stop at the Rio Grande River," he said. "If you're a mother and dad, and you got kids to feed, and you're making 50 cents and you see someone in Iowa making $50, and you care about those kids, you're coming."

Bush suggested that because Americans aren't skilled enough to handle the demands of an economy driven by high-tech industries, "we ought to increase legal immigration for our country's advantage. The high-tech world that we are now dominate is dependent on educated folks, but we're short of workers. It is to our advantage to encourage high-powered, smart people to come into this country," he said.

That's the quote! Note that Jorge "endorses the "demographic revolution" that Bill Clinton said he hoped would end "European culture" in America, the GOP presidential hopeful went on to call for a lifting of the legal limits on immigration." Direct from the article!

Now WHY do we need to end "European culture"? Does "European culture" stop at the Rio Grande? Are we being told that now Latin/Central American Culture is to be preferred? Is that not Racism and "eee-litism"? I guess Spanish speakers serve a better cup of tea in Kennebunk, and as the OBL-ers say here, clean the toilets "Americans Won't Clean"!

I held my nose and voted for this POS in 2000...I wrote in Tancredo in 2004!

Rest assured I will NEVER vote for ANY Bush ever again! Nor any candidate that they have "groomed"! That goes double for any "Brokeback Republicans" that the R(I)N(O)C tries to push on us!

Thank you, BQ!
