Where was the suggestion to end the 'anchor baby' policy? (and please don't bring up the Amendment- that's clearly based on a misapplied interpretation by a liberal SC.)
Where was the threat of jailtime for employers who hire illegals?
Where is welfare reform- as in shutting off benefits to border violators?
Where is the proposal to remove illegals from public education?
What's with expanding the path to citizenship? We can't even properly implement the one we have now!
And we're going to SPEND MORE MONEY! yay! Go big government!
This whole speech was a huge disappointment. But, at least we'll get a 'virtual wall', and a national ID card. Such a deal.
I agree, except there is one thing: whether it is the mass marches or this speech, this ISSUE IS NOW ON THE FRONT BURNER, where it should have been a long time ago. No one can run from it now!
"But, at least we'll get a 'virtual wall'"
yeah, to protect our VIRTUAL america.........
I think I have figured out Bush's larger plan and it is absolutely brilliant !!
By importing poor people from Mexico, the burden on public services will become so large that they will all fail !
No more public education ! No more taxpayer funded roads, medical care, welfare, food stamps, social security, etc. !
We finally get a limited government at all levels, where everyone must be self-sufficient.
Brilliant ! /s
