NASHVILLE, Tenn. - President Bush sharply challenged critics of his stalled immigration-overhaul efforts on Thursday, suggesting that failure to pass a guest-worker program could trigger a labor shortage in the United States.
At a town-hall style meeting, Bush also rebuffed a question about whether he would consider pardoning two Border Patrol agents in prison for the cover-up of the shooting of a drug trafficker in Texas.
"No, I won't make you that promise," Bush told a woman who asked about a possible pardon. Many Republicans in Congress have said the men should not have been convicted and have criticized the federal U.S. attorney for even prosecuting the agents.
"I know it's an emotional issue but people need to look at the facts. These men were convicted by a jury of their peers after listening to the facts" as presented by U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, said Bush. Bush called Sutton a friend.

LOL!
Oh, no. There are NO HATEFUL posts on this thread. Are there?
Well, I’m not black, but that doesn’t make my post any the less accurate.
That dancing Bush, I am dying laughing.
I'm sorry...did you think we were referring to your idol? Why would you think that we were calling the president a traitor who should be tarred up and feathered? We were speaking of Grahamnesty, who called those who want the U.S. LAWS ENFORCED, bigots. I could see how you'd be confused, though, just the same.
You guess wrong.
I am mostly French, English, some German etc etc.
Not A DROP of Hispanic blood.
I’ve never even visited Mexico.
This assumption is as misguided and wrong as the rest of your post.
Henceforth, ye shall be known as Joshing Jorge. N’est pas?
“I’ve never even visited Mexico.”
Don’t worry, if Bush has his way Mexico will soon be visiting you.
Here’s a link you may find interesting.
Those who have waited in line to become Americans (that includes many Latinos) are not pleased with those that would throw the borders wide open to illegals... illegals that have “cut in” to the front of the line at the behest of those leaders: that would give away OUR country for personal gain.
Put it under the category: “There you go again!”
Isn’t that a riot? I keep laughing when I look at it. : )
Is GWB really going to address the Minneapolis convention next year? If so, that nominee better fly to Tahiti during that time of GWB “speak”.
Your not a "real" ZULU?
What else don't we know about you?
What do you want, a biography or family history?
Go ahead ask me - I’ll tell you anything you want to know except three things: the State I live in, what I do for a living and my real name.
Like that greasy weasel would know what being an American is. I hadn't seen this globalist kumbaya socialist nonsense. I'd also say that with all the taxes I pay, I do own a little part of it, so to speak. Certainly more than all the free-loaders (i.e Bush's buddies) breaking in and taking whatever they please.
GWB is just a total failure, but it took years for most Republicans to acknowledge the point, and many, like the Sutton Republicans, will never face the truth.
All we get is song and dance these days...
But he looks so handsome and his tie is sooooo blue.
So was Scooter Libby.
What's your point Mr. President???
It's still a miscarriage of justice!!
That’s just hilarious. When I was a semi-bot in ‘04, I used to love that disco Bush on some site like jibb-jabb or something? They had a dancing Hillary too; that was even funnier - with her pink suit and big thighs...
George Bush is looking increasingly like a grown-up Opie from Mayberry.
But the real Opie made more sense - before he became a wacko Hollyweird leftist.
