This is truly something that will live in history for a very long time.

I agree but do not think he understands how this will affect his legacy.

Shame be upon this effort and all of those malfeasants in Washington that are doing this to our country -— that USED TO BE a representative republic.

The part I find most despicable is that he is trying to ram this through again because we lost the House, which stopped him last time. He is trying to take advantage of our loss to really stick it to us.

We may be seeing the lowest approval rating for a President in this country's history if he succeeds.

Who’d a thunk it? George Bush saves us from attacks by al Qaeda just to expose us to the Mexican invasion.

This is pretty bad, but what does Bush have to lose anymore?

His job. It is time to impeach this arrogant fool.

“That’s empty political rhetoric, trying to frighten our citizens.”

Just goes to show what his MBA is worth.

This idiocy has lost the war.

With things going as bad as they are, everyone in that vast majority who once supported the war is bailing out. The only ones left are the same loyal Americans who want to follow the laws and maintain our sovereignty.

It is this, Bush’s last constituency, which he is kicking in the teeth and slandering at every opportunity. You could not imagine a worse strategy for fighting a war that will only succeed with citizen support.

Karl Rove will get his brown-skinned followers. But their names will be Ahmed and Ali, not Juan and Jose.

“If you want to scare the American people, what you say is the bill’s an amnesty bill,” Mr. Bush

No, you say that if you want to be honest with them.

folks say we all knew he was pro-illegals...well maybe but we never guessed he’d be willing to toss out the baby with the bathwater to turn us into a nation with a plurality of mostly Mexican illegals and their families just to prove how non-racist and compassionate he is

he coulda built Habitiat homes in the hood like brother Jimmy instead of tossing out my children’s birthright like last week’s gumbo

this is disastrous and only appeals to either idiots or folks with a hard-on for white christian males

My guess is that Bush is relying too much now on those working for him. The infamous Washington, D.C. bubble is closing in on him, isolating him more from reality. Bush is a little too much of a people person, and places too much trust in others. This makes for an excellent manager and executive. But if the force field of evil is too strong...

Boy there is some serious denial goin on here.

Come on, if Bush’s father had not have been President and head of the CIA before him, he would not be even a regional vice-president of the Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Company. Not even the used upright division.

If he had a real opponent in 2000 and not McLame, he would have been toast.

“He sees the blatant islamo threat..”

If he really sees the islamo threat, as you suggest, and still insists on having open borders, we have a loose cannon in the WH. Then there is something rotten on 1600 Penn Ave. Doesn’t the security of the US take precedence over anything else, even his desire for America’s globalization?

President Bush has had a great interest in immigration issues from the day he took office. The first state visit for the Bush Presidency was by Presidente Fox - September 5 & 6, 2001. I recall the discussions about immigration being all the talk on TV and Radio. Check out the Joint Statement of the Presidents dated September 6, 2001: http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/09/20010906-8.html. It has been a goal of Bush for many, many years and he was moving his agenda forward when 9/11/01 happened to change the course ...

We haven't forgotten this travesity of justice. Notice how it was neatly swept under the rug? Pardon them NOW.

Pardon him? Don't you see that Bush couldn't give two crap about them or what happens to them? He is content that his family buddy Sutton suppressed evidence and put these guys where they will not survive to the end of their sentence. He knows this very well. This is not "Christian". This is evil.

No he does not. But his legacy is the LAST THING OF IMPORTANCE in this matter. This country is what is important, not the legacy of an elitist President who cannot handle political realities around him. To hell with his selfish legacy.

A loss which was his fault, because of his pussy war effort. The dope won't even kill Al Sadr, for pete's sake! MacArthur had hundreds of Japanese hung, and that was an easy occupation. He hung lowly Commie agitators. And Bush won't kill Al Sadr, the butcher of Americans? Even now? This man is beyond pathetic. He has no balls. And with this bill he shows he has no honor as well.

Mexicans have pictures from a “lost weekend” Bush took during the 1970’s.

It’s been my tagline since early winter.

Bush has nobody left to defend him when the Impeachment inquiry begins.

I wonder if Cheney opposes this crap.

No, Mr. President.What scares the American people,is the thought of this bill passing!

Well said! Very true. I have been losing sleep and my health has suffered over this immigration bill. I made sent emails and made my calls to my Senators and the White House. I sent emails to all my friends and family telling them to call. I pray somehow this bill gets killed, now and forever. We need an impregnable wall.

Kind of like many dissing the ‘traditional conservative base’,,,,,by supporting a LIBERAL, like Guiliani, for President. I, too, am about to give up.

Well, I'm distinguishing between the following possibilities:

There is a leftist force field in our nations capital that overwhelms pretty much everyone who goes there, sooner or later. That's why Rush is keen to stay away from that town.

Decent men who have become pawns look really bad, if you figure that they are still in control and hold them responsible for the leftist tsunami overwhelming our great nation.

But I still hold them in higher regard, by far, than the pathological scum and Marxist ideologues.

Granted, they can be more dangerous. A Hillary on the ticket would encourage heavy voting from those who hate her. A Bush clone on the ticket would leave alot of us home or voting third party.

A leftist (tyrannical) take over requires a mix of immoral, ideological, and misguided men. The misguided serve as the useful idiots, and are as essential to the deadly (tyranny is really deadly) mix as cement and gravel are to making concrete.

Bush has become a useful idiot. I'll be glad to see him go, thankful for his good efforts, and fearful of the continuing onslaught of leftism that he did too little to slow, and that now seems to have overwhelmed his administration.

But Clinton, not Bush, should be on death row.
