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.

And no @#$%$#@#$%$#@ guest worker program. That will do nothing but throw open the flood gates! Put up a damn wall and be done with it.

We will have a temporary worker program that will supplement the illegal worker program. Who is going to enfroce this program. We have laws on the books now to deport illegals.

He is saying exactly what I thought he would. We need a lot more than another 6 thousand border agents if we are not going to have a fence.

Americans are not doing the jobs because corporations have depressed wages. Slave labor.

Now the Gues worker program. We can't deport all illegals here, we can't stop illegals from coming, but we're going to make sure on the honor system they go home? Right.

Doesn't he really mean "jobs Americans are not doing *for the wages a criminal immigrant will do the job"

Hmm, a change in nomenclature.

Now it's to do jobs that our employers can't find American's to work.

Now that's some sickeningly slick politician-speak.

While we may not all agree with his actions or positions, we MUST all agree that the DemonRats must NEVER, EVER again, be speaking from this office.

AMEN!

The arm chair quarterbacks are always going to find something to criticize, hell, I have many problems with his speech.. BUT.... Very few of us are in the position to have the information and the responsibility of PRESIDENT Bush.
Arm Chair Quarterbacking makes good web-sport but the responsibility of the free world isn't so easy.
