"I fully understand President Fox's desire to expedite — to come up with a solution. We are going to do that," Bush told a joint news conference with the Mexican president.

I don't understand Fox's desire to force the amnesty issue. It's not as if we were massively deporting the illegals, they are already taking jobs and sending money home. What does legalization gain Fox? He obviously doesn't want these people, he doesn't promise them anything to stay in Mexico, so why is he trying to run things in the US?

Quite a few of the illegals are wanted for crimes in Mexico.

He wants them to become citizens so they can vote in US elections and put in office candidates that will be friendly to Mexico, in other words, to have a little power in our government. The Dems have to love this guy.
