The Border Patrol agents then turned their ire towards the President. They say his post-speech propaganda trip to Yuma, Arizona is a carefully planned PR stunt. There are a lot of very wealthy farmers in the Yuma area who dominate the local economy and have been using the cheap labor of illegal aliens to build their wealth for many years. Bush speaks their language.

Merely another part of the overall dog & pony show designed to persuade conservatives he's serious about securing the borders and doesn't believe in amnesty. Maybe he really does believe conservatives are stupid.

"...any 'statements' or 'comments' from top-level Border Patrol managers should be taken with a grain of salt. They say what they're told to say. Period."

Shocker. Top level BP agents didn't get where they are by being independent thinkers or anti-illegal alien.
