"Be a good time to put up that border fence...but I guess Air Force One would just fly over it..."

Exactly what I was thinking. If he's more in love with the people of Mexico than with the citizens of the United States, they can keep him.

The fix is in. Done deal.

I'm an American, and I don't mind - would the following be better: "do jobs that Americans won't do for that wage"?

[beyond the sea]

This is B.S. plain and simple..Mexico has no middle class...the rich in Mexico can buy anything they want from anywhere...and the Mexican "middle class" that was predicted to boom with the prior trading agreements is not developing. Mexico is a corrupt oligarchy that uses America as a pressure relief valve ( a dumping grounds for their peon class) enabling the ruling class to maintain their death grip on power and wealth. In the meantime the illegal population in the United States from Mexico continues to grow and grow... "Balkanazation American style" is no longer around the corner , it's on the horizon.

Within a few years it will never be possible for a Republican to win the Presidency. There will be too many people in the country reliant on the government.

Those who have been in the US for 25 yrs and have 3 kids aged 14, 17 and 22 who are all US citizens with the oldest a West Point grad . . . you can't toss that guy. He's made a solid contribution.

I agree.

The Nazis had no problem moving 6 million 60 years ago.

There are few things worse in political discourse when a supposed conservative echoes and gives credence to the leftist smears of conservative motives. Sadly, Bush does this on immigration, just like the WSJournal, Jack Kemp, Bill Kristol, et al.

There is a huge furor going on at FR right now about the illegal immigration problem.

Time to go fishing or golfing...

Nothing much else to do.

It would appear that we have lost the war without even ever having fought a battle.

[clawrence3]

Bingo. Now, the next question is will you vote for Hillary or McCain for POTUS?

[texastoo]

And that slimy little grin Bush has on his face when he says it. It is like he is mocking Americans.

[lawdog]

President Bush's comment is so lame it needs no clarification...

[Pelham]

George Will says it would take 200,000 buses to round up all the illegals and that the Reagan amnesty didn't work.

Will is a dunce. If we just begin enforcement a lot of illegals will self-deport. They're not stupid- as long as they know absolutely nothing will happen to them they'll come in droves. If they know there's a good chance they'll get caught and deported they'll make a life back home. A really useful tool would be asset forfeiture. Why violate the law and accumulate assets here if you could have them taken away?

[org.whodat]

Was Ronald Reagan an "arrogant psychopath who deems himself King, Lord, and Master" when he signed amnesty into law?

Well yes, everybody is capable of a brain fart now and then>

[Supernatural]

"The fix is in. Done deal".

For once you and I agree on something.

[ARCADIA]

You do not need to dig ditches by hand. Technology works; there is no shortage of labor that would justify such reckless behavior.

[Mojave]

Now, the next question is will you vote for Hillary or McCain for POTUS?

No.

[SUSSA]

The illegal aliens and the criminals who hire them and the criminals who harbor them are getting out in the street making their desires known. It is way past time those of us who support the rule of law and secure borders did the same.

Join Veterans for Secure Borders, The Minuteman Project, Latino Americans for Immigration Reform, Mothers Against Illegal Aliens, and other groups protesting amnesty for these criminals, and demanding the government protect our borders.

FReepers should be at this rally in strength. Saturday, May 6, in Crawford, TX.

Please stop doing that; I'm too young to have high blood pressure... :-/

[no-to-illegals]

this article .... and the request to lay down arms......

while an invasion continues..... to a "how are ya....???

has me believing why so difficult . I'm surprised someone hasn't called for our surrender. America has never allowed an invasion without retaliation. Will America now???

""do jobs that Americans won't do." Those words just tick me off!"

Me, too! It is as though Bush is saying, "You fat, lazy good-for-nothings, if it weren't for Mexico nothing would be getting done in this country. You should thank them for getting past our border patrols."
