The discussion has gone on and on and on. I support the President's position on this and believe it to be a well thought out conservative approach to dealing with a very complex problem. I do not mind at all if people see things differently. But what I do mind is people bashing the President, claiming to be the "true conservatives," when in fact, they're simply tossing out simple minded solutions that could have devastating long term consequences.
Clearly, some reasonable critics see such negative consequences in Bush's policies--a vast increase in illegal immigration. But the other side of the coin is that building a wall, massive arrests and deportatations would do terrible damage to our relations with Mexico and, as I stated before, quite possibly put a Marxist state right on our border. So, if I have to bet, I'm betting on the President, and I resent having my conservative credentials questioned because of it.
Your objection to this is fear of Mexico?
Pray tell, please, how is the Prez's position on this 'conservative'?
You're ignoring what I'm saying, the point that 'conservative' means something this Prez is *not* doing. Again, if you're not going to address my points, then perhaps I should just let you go back to insulting the parentage of others?
Oh, we're going to have a marxist state on our southern border, Mr. Collitch Perfesser, you can count on that. That train has already left the station.
