” I say the system isn’t working because there’s a lot of Americans who say that the government is not enforcing our border. I say the system is broken because there are people coming into America to do work that Americans are not doing, and there are good, decent employers who unknowingly are hiring them, which is against the law.”

1. the first part is an odd one, distancing himself from his own decisions to not enforce borders.

2. Though revealing as in "1.", I think he meant to say, "Some say" at first. Some say "broken" means no enforcement. He redefines "broken" to be the fact there is not complete labor mobility across the border, though he still carries a sense of shame, fantasizing that the illegals are only doing the jobs "Americans" won't do.

It's all very odd.

This is like being betrayed by a much loved family member.

Its odd, because every word Bush utters on amnesty is constituent of of a propaganda technique .

If you struck everything Bush said above that was one of these:

Transfer
Testimonials
Simplification (Stereotyping)
Plain Folks
Pinpointing the Enemy
Lesser of Two Evils
Glittering Generalities
Assertion
Bandwagon
Card stacking

You would have nothing left but a few nonsensical sentences that didn't become coherent enough to rise to the level of a propoganda technique.

When he talked about “compassionate conservatism” back in his first inaugural address, I knew we were in big, big trouble. We were sunk.

What was the answer…Kerry? No. Not at all. We had little choice…a dangerous clown or a dangerous moron.

By the way, Kerry served in Vietnam for those who didn’t know.

I loved Dr. Keyes. But the elitists did not want him because he was too smart… smarter than all of them put together. Therefore, the elitists zeroed in on a moron who would do their bidding.

George was a moron to begin with, but he is beyond that today. I can’t find a word to describe his mental deterioration that he is showing today.
