I don’t defend this bill, but I recognize that a solution becomes a pretty complex problem. “Close the border and ship’em out” is easy to say (and probably the ideal solution) but I don’t see it being that easy to do.
Before you start flaming away... take a breath and think for a minute. Advocating a bill that looks to be doomed to failure erases all the rest of Bush’s presidency? That’s the point you want to stand on?
The war... the economy... reduced taxes... homeland security... all that don’t count no more?
If the President thinks it’s too “complex” to enforce existing laws, he probably shouldn’t have taken the oath.
If the southern border is not a functioning checkpoint for who gets into US territory than it follows that Amerixico is what you have. It goes farther than just advocating a disastrous bill, that got “put out of its misery” Congress passes a bill authorizing construction of a 750 mile fence signed into law; 2 miles are done and thats taking a year. This is dereliction of duty and criminally indefensible foot-dragging. He is breaking the law he signed by not building the fence; which he never intended to build because of his warped core values conflict with protecting the nation from the hoard of criminals swamping our land. Yes criminals. The crime rate is spiking up and now you know why.
Don't forget Pres. Bush's stalwart pro-life stance.
That used to be the #1 issue for conservatives. Now they've switched to immigration with hardly a word of thanks for President Bush delivering on pro-life.
Fickle people.
Well said.
