Bush and many other Republicans have the same views as most democrats when it comes to illegal immigration. Bush would give every illegal immigrant amnesty if he could do it without taking any heat. Bush is not any better than democrats when it comes to the biggest problem facing this country. I will never vote for anyone who doesn't take illegal immigration serious. The nation will be destroyed no matter what if the immigration problem isn't solved.

Bush did not run in 06. Which democrats did you help elect that were anti illegal immigration and wont vote democrat party line to prove it? Which republicans did you oppose who were pro illegals. Now that you elected a democrat congress how did that help the fight against illegal immigration? Folks, the party matters. It really matters. They are like gangs you got to choose one or the other. You can fight among yourselves behind closed doors but you can't support the other gang to win an argument. that's gangsta treason my friend. You hand the enemy the weapon to defeat you. You are either in the Patriotic American love the flag gang or you are with the hate America commie pacifist gang. You just got to choose one or the other, there is no in between

the party matters

Let's see. You have a Dem new majority congress pushing amnesty for illegals. You a GOP new minority congress most of whom are pushing amnesty for illegals. And you have a GOP president who has been pushing amnesty for illegals since the day he got in office.

Recount:

Amnesty was stopped shortly after 9-11-01 because of the attacks. It was stopped on a technicality by Senator Robert Byrd. He is a Democrat.

Amnesty passed the Senate in 2006 and the majority party was Republican. That bill was stopped by the Republican House with Dems voting to make it a bipartisan bill.

So what is the distinction? Exactly how does party really matter -- on this issue?

"Bush did not run in 06."

While Bush's name wasn't on the ballot, his unpopularity cost the GOP a number of close races. Bush and Rove made a number of dumb decisions (e.g. if they were going to dump Rumsfeld, they should have done so in August).
