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.

What does it take with GWB for him to "get it" ??
I am really frustrated..
Talk was, he was going to come on TV and deliver an address that would address border security..

It appears that as "urgent" and a "primary task" as border security is, it is only mentioned in passing..
The majority of the address, the Emphasis, is on Immigration Reform, and the Guest Worker ( Amnesty ) program..

This is not what I was hoping for..

This Is Not What I Was Hoping For...

THIS IS NOT WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR..

"All of these problems needs to be addressed together or it will not come to fruition."

Baloney. Address border security first. Prove you can secure the border and enforce current laws before you get the chance to even try a new plan. A plan that would fail if you won't secure the border.

"Has he been propgrammed by Vicente Fox?"


Fox knows what he is doing. The USA needs his country's oil and cement.

How many of your relatives came here illegally????

[mtbopfuyn]

But our ancestors came here LEGALLY! W still doesn't get it.

Exploiting for POLITICAL GAIN!?!?!

We're dying here, Mr. President!

[truthkeeper]

I can't believe what I am hearing. This man is living in a dream world.

[Mears]

I've had it. Just think about all those people waiting for years to get into this country.

Amnesty is amnestu no matter what you call it.

[Doohickey]

Careful. That's the first step toward a National ID card.

[catholicfreeper]

I agree I think this is a good speech so far

Almost all of the illegal students in my Texas ESL classroom must be forced to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.

I see only a small amount of love for our country among them and an overwhelming amount of anti-U.S. prejudism.

Most of their loyalty is to Mexico.

It isn't amnesty... it's not a free ride or a free pass... that's amnesty.

This sherriff has a GREAT idea!

He sounds like he's talking to children

LOL! Talk about irony, I guess you think that some of the tantrums some on FR throw are mature.

[BenLurkin]
