The announcement, which could come as early as Wednesday, is expected to be more of a statement of goals and principles than a detailed legislative proposal; it is unclear how hard Bush will press for congressional approval before the November elections.

I'm very interested to see what is proposed by President Bush. It is long past time to deal with the massive illegal immigration into this country.

I'm very interested to see what is proposed by President Bush.

I understand your implication - don't get excited, nothings been proposed yet - but I for one believe its useful to respond vigorously to even the rumors of amnesty.

It sends the message to those in the bureaucratic echo chamber that we're watching and provides an indication of how such a proposal will be received by the unwashed, including the Bush faithful.
