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.

Reminds me of the kid that was eating the yellow Lifesaver. Teacher says "it is what your mom calls your dad". Billy says "spit it out, it is @sshole"
He is in a tough position.
Okay, Mr. President. Let's get it done.
Unfortunately some people think anything less than locking up or deporting illegal immingrants, is "amnesty".
I don't find anything wrong with a guest worker program or giving many of these people a reasonable and fair path to citizenship.
I don't care if some people call it amnesty or not.
The idea that we are going to deport millions of people simply isn't going to happen. That's reality.
Jobs Americans Won't Do"
That is an absolutely unacceptable concept.
I see hundreds of illegal Guatamalan, Honduran and Mexican iron workers and drywall piece workers on construction sites getting paid what Americans got paid 20 years ago.
And its not the construction companies who are pocketing the diffrenece, they have to bid based on illegal wage scales or lose the job to a competitor using illegals.
It is the developers who pocket the difference and it most certainly does not get passed down to the buyer.
A 2004 Video From Pres. Bush, he waves the Mexican Flag:

..like the 500,000 marching in the streets of Los Angeles...
Yep. My first job was 55 hours a week weeding a vineyard when I was 14. I spent the summer in the 100 degree heat outworking the Mexican labor crew in the field next door. American worker can and will do this work - if we end welfare.
Amen!
It's the same. It has not worked before and it won't work now. The National Guard will only be operating snow cone trucks for the border patrol.
Thank you. He's doing tremendously. Bravo, President Bush!
I think the speech has been wonderful...
Guadala-WHO????
You can't be a Mexican-American. It is one or the other.
Who's got a picture of Wadalupae?
I'm sick.........Immigrants.....they're criminals.
Maybe Greta will ask the ones crossing the border if they want to asimilate? Bet they laugh!
I agree.
This blows.
Guess I'm a troll...been here 6 years
not that it matters anymore
i knew this would be amnesty.....get set to welcome Mexican assimilation of the US if this gang has their way
and all the Dems have to do is sit on their hands and wait to get power....forever
yep....call me a troll.
