Notice the order of the plan:

1 Guest workers
2 Re-unites families
3 Border Security

When Bush talks about this it is:

1 Border Security

2 Background Check

3 A guest worker provision that requires a fine, strict adherence to rules about holding a job, and paying taxes. Violate any item and you're out.

A lot of folks on FR complain about Bush's last priority, but compare and contrast the priorities and details. The GOP's leader remains far to the right of Democrats.

Find GOP candidates in vulnerable House districts and help them as much as you can.

Thanks for posting the very important distinction between the Dems' Plan and President Bush's Reform.

You are making it sound like these new 'guests' are on parole.

The very best hard working parole officer can only supervise 30 light weight offenders at best.
So to take a middle number of 20,000,000 illegals would require about 600,000 Parole Officers. Add clerical support, supervision, training, vacation relief and you are now over one million unionized government employees.

Thanks for nutt'n Dubya!

Here's what Kerry really means:

1. Guest workers - More immigrants
2. Path to Citizenship - Make sure those waving Mexican flags get registered to vote Democratic ASAP.
3. Re-unites families - Make sure that we bring the extended families of all illegals here to vote too. Especially if they can be persuaded to settle in Red states.
4. Border Security - Unionize the border patrol to make sure its as ineffective and corruption ridden as possible. Yeah, hire a few more guys to featherbed the operation. This will allow the union bosses to maximize contributions to the Democratic party.

Notice the order of the plan:

The only issue that I have is that despite a different order, the overall plan is the same. Everyone agrees that the system needs fixing. The only real difference is *who* reshuffles the deck furniture, and when. This indicates that conservative politicians are not performing well at putting out a unified message, with something to differentiate from the Rat plan.

The Senate Judiciary Committee approved a bi-partisan immigration bill...

Well, there you have it: their definition of bipartisan is when their side wins!
