This 245 was misinterpreted over and over and over again for a blanket amnesty bill- something that was completely wrong, and something that never came to fruition.

Only by the Bush Apologists and Amnesty Deniers in their straw man attempts to tar those of us spitting fire against Bush and 245(i). It was a limited Amnesty all along.

And it was due to the ferocity of the grass-roots uproar that Bush's attempt at extending Clinton's [245(i) was originally his] Amnesty that it never came to fruition. In part, you can thank those of us on FR who were in the thick of it despite all of the smears against us.

Bush deserves credit for no Amnesty (yet) like Clinton deserves credit for balancing the budget.

The President actually signed a bill that did not include extending amnesty. If he was as hell bent as some think to get this amnesty, he would have vetoed the bill. But he didn't. Therefore...

NO EXTENDED PERIOD FOR CITIZENSHIP APPLICATION. PERIOD.

Make that "PERIOD... HOWEVER..."

Your conclusion just isn't logically necessary. Bush signed this bill because it needed signing. He still wants Amnesty, and he'll try again...

And the American public will spank him again.

Watch.

Like I said on another thread, use that SAME argument for CFR and see how far it gets you. Bush signed CFR because it needed to be signed, and yet, he was viciously maligned by the usual suspects.

He may try again, but it won't be in it's current form. And, anything remotely more liberal than the one that got shot down will get shot down again. Sorry, but I think extended amnesty is dead. But keep the crow warm just in case... ;)

Oh, I think I detected a martyr complex. And you didn't
do some smearing also? But I'm not fooled by you
bashers, and your 'poor-little-me' tactics! Not a one of
you can admit that you're wrong. And you are sometimes.
You can't even show up to comment nicely, when he does
something right, if you show up at all. Disgusting!

How about a mild spanking with a 2x4,over the head.
