President Bush yesterday said Americans will soon realize they need the immigrants and foreign temporary workers that would have been allowed by his immigration bill, which was defeated in the Senate last month.
Mr. Bush, in a town hall session in Nashville, Tenn., also refused to say whether he will pardon two U.S. Border Patrol agents convicted of shooting a fleeing drug-smuggling suspect, saying the prosecutor was a friend of his who made his case to the jury that convicted the agents.
If Mr. Bush was hoping the immigration issue would disappear after his bill's failure, those hopes were dashed, as he was asked repeatedly about border security during the forum meant to highlight his commitment to cutting the deficit.
"The bill failed and I can't make a prediction to you at this point, sir, where it's going to head," the president told one questioner. "I can make you a prediction, though, that pretty shortly people are going to be knocking on people's doors saying, man, we're running out of workers."
Mr. Bush said there are workers who will do jobs Americans aren't doing in the agriculture sector in particular, and without them the jobs will go unfilled.

Just in a fun mood. LOL!
lol! But he’s not wearing a tie, so I can’t post my admiration :)
Well..square dance maybe.
Wrong. That would only be true if you were talking about someone that is in this country legally.
bray I didn't slink off anywhere. I have been busy enjoying my life. Your rants don't make sense so I haven't responded to them. IF you would start responding to my posts with anything other than name calling I would respond to yours. Besides your constant whining to the mods is a nuisance just like the rest of your actions. You sniveling little piece of keyboard lint. You are so devoid of any logic or reasonable thought you must either be retarded or twelve years old. Go tell your daddy you are done with the computer now and don't leave your lollipop on the keyboard to melt. You said you picked apples once. Was there heavy pesticide use in that orchard? You probably have been damaged by DDT but even that will not excuse you from my attentions. Be a human and discuss the facts. You accuse others of racism but your posts are full of "Manuel labor", "Paco picking lettuce" and other racist comments. You are a sick person that needs a cleaning of the attic.
You are one sick freak.
If he walked into my home looking like that with an ear of corn he would leave with it too.
He would waddle out begging for it to be removed. You could suck it out because it is clear where your mouth stays.
Now address my previous posts.
Wrong. That would only be true if you were talking about someone that is in this country legally.

This patriotic freeper has acknowledged hiring companies that use illegals and hiring people who are likely illegal but he's not sure because he doesn't ask.

That may be well and good but I'm sick of paying for the illegal ones and a good part of the problem is because there are way too people unwilling to ask.
100% true, but it won't stop the OBL traitors and liars, because they have less morals than street whores.

Did you bother to even read the bill? How did you like the part that states that Mexico (yes, it states Mexico specifically) is thoroughly infested with corruption from top to bottom, in both private and public sectors and that this bill will fail to achieve what it desires unless the Mexicans change the centuries of a true culture of corruption.
When you read that for yourself (as I'm sure you did) did it really sound sane to you? Please explain how.
The illegal immigrant for the most part has been 'welcomed' by our government. Both sides of the aisle.
I know words have meanings. But, when my government condones their living and working here with...with special directives to not cooperate with ICE.
When I see illegal aliens with no valid drivers license not being taken into custody at the scene of an accident...then what the hell is 'legal'?
My idea of legal is what my government's idea of legal is...at any given time.
Sorry!
;<)
You're too...uh...'out there'.
Stop nipping at my ankles and go to your room.
Wait, I agree, the freeper I reference is a judas of the first order who hides behind his own version of don’t ask, don’t tell just so he can make a buck.
It’s all good :0)

Slavery, once legal therefore ok with DCP. Abortion legal, therefore ok with DCP. No-knock warrents once ok, therefore ok with DCP.
It is clear DCP, that you lack a moral compass of your own, as do most profiteers.
If employers would quit hiring illegals it wouldn’t make a bit of difference who welcomes them. Supply and demand works with illegals too, ya know.
gotcha, I thought I’d tangled with DC before but ya never know.
