"If that's true, then that source of funds should be discovered by now."

You assume that money has already changed hands. One cannot trace the source of funds which have yet to arrive. That's the only guess I can come up with (not claiming to have inside knowledge of a particular deal). Nothing else makes any sense.

"You assume that money has already changed hands."

Not really. I don't assume anything much about Bush's position on illegals. His position is fairly clear, but the motivations aren't so clear.

I generally try to stay out of the speculation thing. If there's evidence, I like to see it. If there's no evidence, it's speculation.

I don't agree with the President's position, but I sure don't know why he holds that position.
