What's with him and immigrants? Legal and illegal it doesn't matter to him, Congress should get b***s and tell him, Mr President when you finally protect all Americans from the illegal activity that includes drugs, smuggling etc, and stop making taxpayers pick up the tab for the millions of illegal leeches here already, and protect our borders than maybe than we will CONSIDER raising the bar for yet MORE immigrants to come in.

This is so unbelievable it just defies description. Americans going to college to get educated, their parents sacrificing to send them to college so when they get out they can have a bright future and earn a good income and our President insists he prefers NON-Americans! I am increasingly getting angrier about his love and support for non-Americans.

Well, the GOP has snatched defeat from the jaws of victory with this issue. The democrats are going to retake the House, and if the pandering and REAL, SUBSTANTIAL reform rather than posturing doesn't take effect in immigration and the wholesale decimation of our industries, the democrats will take the WH in 2008.

I have no idea where this GOP came from, but I am disgusted with all of them.

Not NON-Americans but rather "new Americans".

I don't get it either. I regret the political leaders of today. They wouldn't be able to clean the boots of the Founding Fathers. There is no sense of nationalism as a result of the Bush/Clinton era. Let's hope it comes to an end in 2008. If it doesn't I fear for the future of the United States.

We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000.

You can read the speech here.

Here is a good critique of that speech:

In equating our intimate historic bonds to our mother country and to Canada with our ties to Mexico, W. shows a staggering ignorance of the civilizational facts of life. The reason we are so close to Britain and Canada is that we share with them a common historical culture, language, literature, and legal system, as well as similar standards of behavior, expectations of public officials, and so on.

There is a serious disconnect with this President and the "people on the ground". He seems to only pay attention to big business and to hell with "working Americans". Why in Gods name would anyone encourage their sons / daughters to get a degree in Engineering or the sciences if he's going to flood the market with foreign workers?


His lack of interest in securing our borders reflects this same attituda. 80%+ Americans want a more secure border NOW. All he can do is offer up Chertoff the sock puppet to schmmooooze us back to sleep.

Conservatives have been waiting 30+ years to be in control of the House, Senate and Presidency...and now, to a large part, it's being squandered.

On a brighter note....he's been excellent with his S.C. appointments.

This is the mantra of the one-world, globalist, new world order true believers, of which GWB is the standard bearer. Get used to it.
