Former President George W. Bush said Monday that the U.S. should not shy away from enforcing its borders — but he also called on Congress to set aside political acrimony and approve a broad legalization for illegal immigrants.
Mr. Bush, who himself led a massive round of wall-building beginning in 2006, did not specifically praise or attack President Trump, who is now engaged in another wall fight.
But the former president did say Congress should again attempt to tackle “comprehensive immigration reform.” That’s the name backers use for bills offering amnesty from deportation to millions of illegal immigrants.
Mr. Bush attempted to strike agreement on such a bill in 2006 and again in 2007, but failed both times, with his own party rebelling against him over border security, and some Democrats balking because they felt his plans would undermine American workers.
He spoke at a naturalization ceremony for new citizens, hosted at the Bush Presidential Center in Dallas.

Piss off Georgie and take your Kenyan fascist friend with you.
I literally cannot say F’ you George abush enough...
Go sell guacamole bowls with your brother, dipstick!
Wow. You don’t usually get this sort of fiction writing from the Washington Times. Bush tried to push an amnesty bill. His base rebelled. Congress voted for a wall. I never heard him complain about the failure to find it. In short, typical dc two step trying to fool the rubes
Fund not find
It is interesting to me that President Trump has managed to get the Bush family to show their true colors. Thanks George, because of you and the rest of the family no one who cares independence and freedom will ever make the mistake of voting for any Bush again... ever.
Bush, the village idiot speaks. He should just go back to driving his truck around his property and leave us alone. NO AMNESTY!
Strange
All I remember about this time.....2007......was when he was welcoming them to the US....
...because, as he said
‘To do the jobs Americans won’t do’.....
...and then he said
‘See you at the signing’
And I lost hope in a man I once revered
Crawford should get a few hundred thousand new residents.
And a couple of taco trucks.

When George W. Bush was 13 (Jeb was 7), his family acquired a nanny:
“She was standing on the doorstep, alone in the rain. She looked tired and scared. A few days earlier, Paula Rendon had said goodbye to her family in Mexico and boarded a bus bound for Houston. She arrived with no money and no friends. All she had was an address, 5525 Briar Drive, and the names of her new employers, George and Barbara Bush.”[Decision
Points, By George W. Bush]
Dubya goes on:
“I was thirteen years old when I opened the door that evening in 1959. Before long, Paula became like a second mother to my younger brothers and sister and me. She worked hard, taking care of our family in Texas and her own in Mexico. Eventually she bought a home and moved her family to Houston.”
Bush has proven himself to be such a stupid loser. I have absolutely no use for him.
Get bent George. There’s already laws on the book for legal immigrants to come here, and seek citizenship. Amnesty is a violation of that law, and the established procedure. You don’t reward bad behavior by trampling on the law, or by disrespecting the legal immigrants who have followed the entry laws, and the citizenship process by the book.
Does he really think anyone gives a rats ass what he thinks about anything? We don’t...
Oh, and thanks again for the huge mess you left us with, George. You know, the one that almost ushered in the end of America through Obama and Hillary. So, from someone who once gave you every benefit of the doubt, get lost Amigo.
I am starting to think that the GOPe losers, RINOs in congress and the Dems are going to come up with some amnesty-laden plan and give that to Trump to neutralize him and the topic before the election. Seems that Democrats have started backtracking on open borders, plus several members of congress are picking up on topic. I bet they realize Trump wins with this and they now need to do something.
Shrub loves illegal invaders who rape, steal from and kill our citizens.
Shrub called the Satanic Death Cult the “Religion of Peace” after its most faithful adherents murdered thousands of our citizens on 9/11.
Does anyone think this jackass is on our side ?
NO. NO. NO.
We’ve made waves of illegals into citizen for decades with the promise that THIS IS IT... from now on new illegals will be stopped from coming.
It’s always a lie. NO to citizenship - send illegals home - or house them on Bush’s ranch...
I stopped caring about anything that sniveling little twerp said back when he laid down and whimpered in the face of the Democrat onslaught. Don’t want to hear any more wimpy stupidity from this useless, worthless nothing.
