“The 9/11 hijackers would have been caught a dozen times over by a society that enforced its immigration rules.”
“While enforcement was tightened in certain concentrated areas, elsewhere it actually relaxed. Immigration from the Middle East reached an all-time peak in 2005.”
“Neither the president nor his inner circle has ever cared to hear from dissenters on this issue. A hasty and careless economic calculus, a poorly considered political gamble, and self-righteous moral grandstanding have together pushed the president to the worst domestic political and policy error of his presidency.”
“The backroom deal that produced this latest law epitomized decades of collusion between the two parties to suppress open discussion of this vital issue. This time, at last, the collusion failed. Democracy has erupted. I’m ready to make my voice heard. How about you?”
If it weren’t for 9/11, President Bush would have pushed for ILLEGAL immigration a long time ago.
Guess he thinks we forgot by now.
And three of the 9/11 terrorists were illegals.
BTTT
Excellent article by Frum!
I guess he’s off of the White House Christmas card list now.
He saw quite a bit up close and personal.
I’m glad to see one former insider speak his mind.
This whole thing is surreal.
Bush is leading a coup against the American people.
I am angry, and very sad, for our country.
Thank you for the post and ping.
I have called and faxed until I have carpel tunnel syndrome : )
Treason--the sellout of the United States as a sovereign nation.
No use pretending it's anything else.
