Don't forget 1986 Amnesty of illegal immigrants by Reagan.

He was a great leader but he made mistakes like Bush. They're humans. We cannot expect them to be perfect all the time despite what some FReepers think.

Thanks, How'd I manage to leave that big one off.

You have it exactly right. The reality is both Reagan and GWB have been great leaders and on the whole did very well for this country. The United States was lucky to have such men as POTUS/CINC.

Reagan made a mistake. Bush wants to merge the US and Mexico. Its the only reason I can come up with as to why he allows their Presidents to wield so much power with him and make him appear small and weak. He would never allow any other leader to do such a thing.

He doesn't want to stop illegal immigration, he calls the Minutemen "vigilantes", he doesn't care that 500,000 illegals march in the streets of the US waiving Mexican flags.

If Bush would at least demand American citizens be given the right to buy property in Mexico and be assured safety while in Mexico, American would turn that freakin place around in a decade. He demands nothing of their leaders to benefit us but bends over backward for them and tells us to like it of lump it.

Bush is a good guy and aside from his Mexican worship would rank as one of the best. Unfortunately his policy and general attitude on illegal immigration is terrible and loses him lots of respect within his party. The reason is because it goes to the core of American sovereignty.

I didn't think Reagan was perfect and I don't expect Bush to be perfect, but I sure as hell wish Bush would learn something from his predecessor's mistakes and not make the problems worse by repeating them.
