IRVINE, Calif. - Several hundred demonstrators from both sides of the immigration issue protested outside President Bush's speech Monday at an Orange County hotel.
With Congress returning from a two-week recess, the speech let Bush relaunch his proposal for a temporary guest worker program. It also gave a venue for protesters in a region where the immigration debate has become increasingly heated.

I don't get why illegal advocates are protesting against the President. He's their best friend.

AP is just wrong. No One chanted "We didn;t cross the border the border crossed us" today.
We were saying "Go FIX Mexico"
And they did not mention the Armenians; who had the most people.

Channel 5 KTLA News just showed a news video, Ladycalif showing some of today's events. Not sure if you were in the same group, but the group they showed were well dressed, very conservative in appearance and speech, carrying neat looking signs, many in the 25-60 years old age range, a few retirees and all were saying similar things. There were short sound bites of the reporter interviewing several from the conservative group.
It was surprising to see that the conservative group appeared to have more people than the liberal group.
Also I believe they aired a similar sound bite today on KABC Radio.

On Alipac I saw the brief news clips of the angry Muslims. Scary guys. This thing is getting out of hand, and I hope the politicians will start speaking up about it.

I don't get why illegal advocates are protesting against the President. He's their best friend.Because the Democrats have been telling them that ALL Republicans are evil and that it's OUR fault they aren't legal citizens right now. They've been signing them up to vote as Democrats already!
