Bush's speech? Lost's of fluff but no teeth. There was NO mention of increasing fines or making it more risky to hire illegals.

It was a lot to cover in 16 minutes, and ultimately it's up to Congress to write the bill. He said what he wanted out of it, but it isn't going to be a two-page bill. Obviously there will be lots of contentious details.

Legislating is messy work.

I said last night that if Bush didn't mention any punishment for employers, this would be just more "boob bait for the bubbas."

That's just what it was. Boob bait for the bubbas.
