The President is the one personally responsible for the actions resulting from his own behavior and decisions. He screwed up his immigration policy when he favored the wishes of the cheap-labor faction after the 9-11 attack.
The Islamic fanatics couldn't help but see the easy avenue into our country and had a ready network of established mosques here to hide and move them. They're here - don't lie to yourselves. What saves us is the sheer awe of American freedoms that overwhelms almost all who come here. Al Queda agents must laugh amongst themselves about the missions they ditched while enjoying far better lives than they had in the caves and deserts.
So it's enigmatically worse and better than most people think. I just happen to believe the current leadership is enjoying the benefits of our established system rather than any smoke they currently blow up the backsides of their constituents.
But it's all a moot point if we don't re-instill respect for our historical accomplishments and establishing values.

I see your point, and do not entirely disagree with you, actually. It is the tactics of this particular get together that I have a problem with. Anyone who believes putting the Dems back in power helps the immigration issue one iota is in serious denial.
I wish I could stay and discuss it further but I am falling down tired and have a big day tomorrow.
So, I'll wish you a good evening. I hope we can talk about this further later.
