I searched but did not see a thread already open for tonights speech. I think this is the most important speech the President will probably make for the remainder of his term.
Mod Note:
This could turn into a whack-a-troll thread. All immigration trolls that would like to participate should post here. It'll be interesting to see if we mods can whack the trolls faster than they can sign up new accounts.

I sincerely hope you aren't actually hiring illegals.
Yeah and I don't buy this crap that the majority of illegals are hardworking law abiding people. I've heard report after report about how millions of the illegals are convicted criminals in their own countries, theives, rapists, drug abusers, pedophiles, murderers. Hardly decent people. If the wall was built and all illegals caught were held for a few months in tent jails like Sherrif Joe Arpaio's on Maricopa County in Arizona forced to do community service while in custody before being deported, that would cut illegal immigration. That's what I'd do. Sherrif Arpaio is my hero.
Bush is not just the Republican's President. Bush is America's President and he must listen to all sides of this debate and give consideration to each side. I will support President Bush on this one. However, the States must also do their part and require their law enforcement agencies to contact the the proper authorities.
I also believe that English must be required as America's only language. No more translated ballets...that must stop. If you cannot speak or read English, you simply will not be allowed to have your voice heard.
We are fighting for freedom in Iraq and Afghanistan. How can you separate Men and Women from Mexico who want freedom for themselves and their families. I refuse to be so cold hearted as to deny them the opportunity if they are willing to become an American in all aspects of what an American is. Given their religious backgrounds, there is a good possibility we could turn them into enough Republicans so that we can finally shut the democrats door tight.
God Bless our President and God Bless America.
The only thing that we have to put up with is an ORGANIZED Guest Worker Program. Where these workers will PAY TAXES. He basically handed us our entire cake, just it was one peice short...
This explains why some of you are acting like spoiled 5 year olds who didnt get enough birthday presents.
I am so sick of you RINO's with your repetitive ad nauseum "spoiled brats", "whiners", "acting like children" comments, as if you are the intelligent adults around here, when in actuality you are faux conservatives, appeasers, and naive political fools. There's a few words for you and your ilk to mull over on your side of the virtual fence.
What?
I am not a liberal. That is not what I am talking about. I just can't see a person that has been here and is a good person and has roots being thrown out. Get the criminals out and the recent invaders out. Put up a dam wall it's not going to happen overnight.
Oh, I couldn't agree more about the giving away freebies. That kills me more than anything else, as a taxpayer. We tried to vote it down in CA but our Proposition was declared unconstitutional after it passed swimmingly.
The last baby I had, I had a roommate in my shared hospital room. She did not speak any English and I'd bet my socks she was illegal. We both had had caesarian sections. I'd had my 3rd child and she'd had her 4th. I have a PPO insurance plan, and it took a few months to slowly pay off our bill for 20% of the total. She got hers SCOT free. It stings.
We plan our children's trips to the dentist carefully. We live the old fashioned life of the Dad earning, and the Mom home with the kids. Each cavity is $100 to fill, and so we can only go once a year with each child. Illegals get FREE dental care. We get the flyers, in Spanish, from the public schools. It really HURTS us. We are proud Americans, working hard. We pay taxes for their free services while foregoing most of our own.
I can't believe the position Bush takes on this.
Flash forward twenty..er maybe ten years...After President Bush the 3rd gives a speech ceding the American Southwest it's independence.
"If you independence-phobes want to blame your own temper tantrums on the president for being realistic."
The illegals who invade the US and continue their criminal ways. Many are involved in the drug trade and bring a ruthless type of violence with them. Some are just low lives who are wanted in Mexico for various crimes and "escape" over the border. ANY big city cop in the West will tell you that the ratios of criminals to non are/is very high in the Hispanic Community. Our prisons are choked with illegals and the cost of supporting them is in the billions. It needs to STOP!
What is the "final solution"?
During Viet Nam, non citizens were drafted...
I have. Lots of complaints about illegal aliens, virtually nothing about legal immigration.
You seem to be the one injecting race into this thread.
We will continue to work cooperatively to improve security on both sides of the border ... to confront common problems like drug trafficking and crime ... and to reduce illegal immigration.
He still intends to keep the gates open.
You freaking whiners and stubborn knuckleheads better listen up. What good is going to the extreme on this illegal immigration issue then to have us kicked out of power and have the RATS back in. Yup, Just keep it up with this whinning.
Don't vote in 06 and 08. Just let the RATS back in power because GWB didn't open a can of whoop a$$ on illegals.
Ohhh FR is going to be a real fun place in 08. Wonder who the RATS are going to replace Ginsburg and Stevens. lol
"I'm just walking in the door. Anybody want to to suggest the definitive summary post or story?"
Sure. When Bush finished, I swore I could hear all those millions and millions of ILLEGALS CHEERING IN THE STREETS! SHOUTING WITH JOY!!
SI SE PUEDE! SI SE PUEDE! SI SE PUEDE!
>>>President Bush says there is no way we can deport 12 million people. It is just can't be done....
Mexico did!!!<<<
Applause, applause. That's the best quote of the night.
Americans have the choice of giving their support to a candidate or withholding it.
