I find it so interesting that Bush is being accused of bringing "amnesty" with this guest worker program, but the beloved Reagan is the one who brought us the real amnesty. And look where we are as a result. Something must be done and it has to make sense rather than all the empty threats and rhetoric.
Empty threats and rhetoric is all that those who are trying to attack and weaken the GOP care about. They likely know there is no easier or quick answer to this but undermining the GOP is their chief goal.
