"If the House refuses to compromise, I hope Bush signs a Presidential pardon for every illegal alien."
Well, at least we know where you stand, and in no uncertain terms.
How would you propose to handle this, though? Just pardon all illegalities associated with the fraudulent ID and be done with it, or what?
How would one know just who one is pardoning, and for what?
I am happy to give the House one last chance to compromise in good faith with the Senate. Then we can all "pick up the tab" as efficiently as possible. If not, a blanket Presidential pardon would easily be available for any federal crime. Or, you could set it up like Carter's Proclamation of January 21, 1977, which pardoned certain persons who, during the Vietnam War era, violated the Military Selective Service Act by draft-evasion acts or omissions committed between August 4, 1964 and March 28, 1973: http://www.usdoj.gov/pardon/carter_instructions.htm
