I beg to differ.

We know exactly what’s going on, there in lies the problem.

“Number of arrests at border goes down means fewer people are trying to get across”

Couldn’t it just mean they are getting smarter? Or that our blessed border patrol doesn’t want to spend time in prison?

Wow. Bush used the illegal alien phrase. Chertoff called them undocumented workers in his testimony before Congress last month.

To secure the border we need to put the pressure off the border? Or we could make sure the costs outweigh the benefits of sneaking in

I agree with you!

Bush still wants us to believe that any Mexican is going to live here "temporarily"???

How we going to find and deport them?

Here comes the "melting pot" part of his appeal for CIR.

He's basically telling the Mexicans "it's important NOT to give up no matter how hard it looks from a legislative perspective".

Border Patrol might think, why bother, it's just catch and release anyway.
