Yup he's honest as the day is long, no amnesty, just depends on the meaning of the word amnesty-remind you of anyone?

Amnesty by Any Other Name
Back in September 2001, THE NEW AMERICAN observed regarding the Bush-Fox amnesty threat: “The Bush administration has been torturing the English language in an effort to craft a new amnesty for millions of illegal aliens without saying the dread word: ‘amnesty.’ Some newly devised euphemisms include ‘regularization,’ ‘legalization,’ ‘permanent status,’ and ‘earned adjustment.’ President Bush has repeatedly dodged the amnesty issue, refusing to use the term. Still, when recently pressed on the issue, he insisted that his soon-to-be-revealed immigration policy vis-à-vis Mexico will not include a ‘blanket amnesty.’”
We noted that “whatever Clintonesque term is finally adopted as the cover for the Bush policy, a large amnesty is certain to be the central component of his immigration package.” And it is coming, regardless of the intentionally conflicting signals being sent by the White House. As the Copley News Service reported on December 11, 2003, “the administration is considering a major election-year immigration initiative.” The report continued:
In September, Sen. Larry Craig, R-Idaho, said he had received White House assurances that if a bill he drafted to legalize between 500,000 and 800,000 farm workers reached the president’s desk, Bush would sign it....
And this week, Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., said in an interview that Karl Rove, Bush’s chief political strategist, promised a presidential push to deliver on immigration reforms sought by Mexican President Vicente Fox and advocates for undocumented workers.
The Rove-Bush strategy aims at keeping the Republican core distracted with other matters until the administration has put together a sufficiently impressive coalition of business leaders and radical Hispanic militants as to appear unstoppable. The Bush White House then intends to ram its amnesty plan through Congress before opponents can rally to stop it.
So now we are using the John Birch Society, the looniest of the loony right as a source of FreeRepublic. This is just amazing.
