Because it is easy to blame the top for not enforcing policies but when it comes to it it is often down to an individual that they are not enforced.

I worked for the USG for 36 years. Bush is responsible for the fact that our border has not been secured since 9/11. He is not enforcing the laws of this country. Simple as that.

You want to explain to me how Bush is suppose to arrest 20 million Illegals all by himself? How Bush is suppose to, all by himself, undo 50 years of conscious neglect by both sides of the political aisle on this issue?

I know emotions run very high on this issue but this conscious adaptation of the debate tactics of the Hysteric Left by a good chunk of the Right these days is simply inexcusable.

This habit of the Antis just screaming bile at everyone who doesn’t adopt their personal dogmas on this issue as gospel is really alienating a lot of people who MIGHT otherwise listen. This is why the “Nativist” accusation works for your opponents. Too many people read the sort of ranting hyper emotional screaming and simplistic sloganeering coming from the Right on this issue and wonder if the accusation ins’t hitting close to the truth.

Last week you wrote THIS, which was one of the best arguments on the issue I have read. THAT is the tone and the manner the Antis SHOULD be adopting. Use this sort of calm, deliberate sensible tone and the Antis turn all the arguments directed at them back on their opponents heads
