President Bush has spoken in favor of the bill authored by Rep. F. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wisc.), known as the Border Protection, Antiterrorism and Illegal Immigration Control Act of 2005. Bush has already signed legislation appropriating more than $70 million to install new barriers and improve existing protective infrastructure along the border. This includes fencing as well as vehicle barriers and lighting to enhance border security.

What did he allegedly say?

Yeah, we know Bush supported the House bill, and that is to his credit.

But it is abundantly clear that he favors the Senate bill, and he cares not a whit about any enforcement provisions in it, just so long as it has an "adjustment of status", i.e. amnesty.

Do you deny that Bush would have signed any immigration bill the Senate might have produced, even the original McCain-Kennedy monstrosity, with felons, 210 million and all?
