And after more consideration, it occurs to me (with a gasp) that Bush's amnesty efforts are reminiscent of Reagan's amnesty. Ugh; I hope not.
Me neither.
Do the math: The Reagan amnesty was advertised as being for about one million illegal aliens. Three million took advantage of it, leading to an additional twenty million to thirty million coming here since then. (The MSM's 12 million figure is a joke.)
The amnesty that the administration and the Senate are promoting is for 12 million or so.
The question is, will 30 million plus then apply? Will that then lead to 60-90 million more crossing the border illegally? Many think so, including me.
