I thought so, but wasn't totally sure. FYI: I've posted this question at least 4-5 times in the past year on different threads, but no one ever responded. So, thank you for being gutsy enough to tell me the truth. BTW, when you say that some blame Bush, I assume you mean Bush the Elder.....??

You're welcome!

Nope...Bush the Present.
See post 10.

So, thank you for being gutsy enough to tell me the truth.

When you're up for a little more research go find out what one of the '88 amnesty bill's sponsors, Sen Alan Simpson, thinks about the possibility of another amnesty today.

He has gone on record lately saying the '88 amnesty was a mistake & is vehemently against another. Too bad he stayed in the senate just long enough to do serious damage to his country (even with the best of intentions) but not long enough to help see that such a mistake is not made again.
