And please show me any quote where Bush says, everybody come to the US. Just one

Oh, please! Have you been paying any attention at all to Bush's position on this issue? The man is VERY pro-immigration. Below are just a few quotes:

"We ought to increase legal immigration for our country's advantage. The high-tech world we are now dominating is dependent on educated folks, but we're short...of workers. It is to our nation's advantage to encourage high-powered, smart people to come into our country." (Iowa Gazette, Jan. 6, 2000)

"I intend to reform the INS to make it more welcoming to immigrants." (National Review Online, June 27, 2000 - Address to League of United Latin American Citizens)

"People [in the INS] ought to be asking 'How can I help you, what can I do to help you fill out paperwork? We ought to be saying loud and clear to people that the INS is to help families and to help people understand the maze of rules and regulations." (Washington Times, June 27, 2000 - Address to Congress of Racial Equality)

"Immigration is not a problem to be solved. It is a sign of a confident and successful nation. And people who seek to make America their home should be met in that spirit by representatives of our government. New arrivals should be greeted not with suspicion and resentment, but with openness and courtesy." (July 10, 2001 - Speech at INS Naturalization Cermony, New York City)

Besides not showing any proof that Bush wants to let everybody come in, did you notice anything about the dates on all your quotes. In case you cant see it, they are prior to 9/11.

Jorge Bush also campaigned on dismantling the INS. His proposal was to split it into two parts. Now I am a conservative. I believe in drastically reducing the size of government. But that doesn't mean I don't think there is a proper place for government. Of all the departments in the Federal Government to chop up, Jorge Bush wants to chop up the INS! It's unbelievable!

Also, in my opinion, that so called beaurocratic snaffu regarding the visa paperwork for the two terrorists which belately arrived at the Florida flight school nine months late was deliberate. Notice how the paperwork magically arrived one day after the house vote. Notice how no heads in the INS rolled. After this so called INS screw up, Jorge Bush can say, look, this snaffu underscores the need to reform the INS!! Of course, neither part of Bush's 'new' INS will address deporting any of the illegals including the ones who do not qualify for amnesty under the 245i extension.
