"if the conference produces something more than that, something closer to the House version, the package will be a good deal."

That is assuming of course that the current administration will ENFORCE the new law. I seriously have my doubts. I fear that even if the House version is passed without change with no taint of amnesty (hypothetically), this administration will not enforce it.

They haven't enforced it before, why would they start now. President Bush wants his guest worker program and he is determined to get it.

I would almost bet that if the House version gets passed (which it won't) that President Bush would exercise his first veto on that. What do you think?

I think if Bush vetoes the House bill or signs an amnesty proposal then he shows that he is unwilling to "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution." That is coming dangerously close to impeachable.

Exactly correct, they did not implement the enforcement part of the 86 amnesty, no reason to believe the open borders crowd is ever going to take enforcement seriously.
