President Bush COULD have given one speech the other night that would mostly have fixed our illegal immigration problem since it would have caused a stampede for the border.

I have directed the head of DHS, Michael Chertoff, to vigorously enforce our current immigration laws, especially against companies hiring illegals. I will request that Congress fund everything the appropriate agencies need to do this. I have asked Congress to look at ways of making sure that noone in America illegally, receives benefits that should be reserved for American citizens. I am also requesting that federal funds be withheld from any city that claims "sanctuary". You are violating immigration laws. I am sure there are other things that can be done and we will be looking at them.

To the people currently here who have come in illegally: It is not America's place to take care of you. Yes we have compassion for you but you need to go home, get in line, and come here legally. We cannot be an economic safety valve any longer. If you are caught here, you will be deported. We must preserve America's sovereignty.

I worked that up from my humble little desk here at home, wasn't that hard and took, ummm 2 minutes. A president SERIOUS about ending illegal immigration could have done the same thing.

Good post! Note these words from President Theodore Roosevelt to Congress:

""No man is above the law and no man is below it; nor do we ask any man's permission when we require him to obey it.""Obedience to the law is demanded as a right; not asked as a favor." Third Annual Message to Congress, December 7, 1903
