I'm with you.

"Tonight I am calling on Congress to provide funding for dramatic improvements in manpower and technology at the border,"

Funding is the point. Anybody who wants something done needs to procure funding. The full solution will cost $250 billion first year, but Congress won't go for that. So, expect something less. Much less.

real nice attitude calling our President that...

Nice Attitude? Screw that! In Los Angeles, we are DROWNING in illegals, and the president has ignored the problem for his entire term in office. When two border patrol agents made 2 arrests in Southern California of car loads of illegals, he suspended the agents, threatened their expulsion, and sent his representatives to apologize to the illegals.

Our hospitals, schools, and social welfare system in southern California are overrun with illegals and WE are forced to pay for them. His administration has done its best to deny any federal help to the residents of California for repayment of our own tax dollars to pay for this MESS!

You WANT ATTITUDE buster!? I'll give you some F*****G ATTITUDE!!!

Is this DU?!

[RegulatorCountry]

A cynic would interpret this statement as saying that illegal aliens would be given a path to citizenship, just not an "automatic" one. This is no time for wiggle-room words, I would think.

[Izzy Dunne]

Could someone explain what is(was)going on with using the past tense?

Bush was to say = Bush was {expected | predicted } to say

[dingoMcgill]

The borders are not under control

The person who put that in the speech should be relieved of that duty

The dems are going to use that to no end for the mid terms

Five years after 9/11 and the boarders are not under control?????

[Nachum]

My, but you have a potty mouth.

See post #15.

[jveritas]

Remember what happen to your boss and 90% of your hateful ilks. They were banned from FR and soon you may share their fate. Go to LooneyPost (LibertyPOst) and DUmmyland and express your hatred toward the President.

[Nachum]

oops. I meant 24.

[WASH]

Still past tense.

[goalinestan]

Oh I have no doubt that there will be a path to citizenship, which to me = AMNESTY.

If you break our laws in the first place, why be given any chance (automatic or otherwise) for something as valuable as American citizenship.

I don't think I am going to like what I hear tonight.

[airborne]

I see it.

It's my post to you.

What's your point?

[Nachum]

My Ilk?

What, a legal citizen and resident of California?

[Uncle Hal]

Stop the illegals from coming is the first thing we have to do. Once that is done then we can talk about what to do about the illegals that are here. Honest polls show that the public supports the House measure over the Senate version by 2 to 1. Bush had better remember that. The fate of Bush, the GOP, and the country is a stake.

[Lunatic Fringe]

as long as BUsh is for this guest worker plan there is nothing he can say that will satisfy me.

We already have a guest worker program.

[Scribbz]

Nachum I'm on your side in regards to the border but there is no need for the name calling. This is not the DU.

[Huck]

Hey why complain? I'm glad they released the Reader's Digest version; Now I definitely don't need to bother watching him read it. He's not that great a reader anyway.
