I think Bush is floating a trial balloon--no, even a false effort--with the hope that it will be viewed or cited as a positive effort toward "inclusiveness" and that it will be defeated by public opinion and congressional action. It will not become the law but it can be used to bolster support from...(fill in the blanks.) It's rather politcally astute, but it won't gain him a victory edge with the Hispanics. But still, it will help a bit and, because it's doomed not pass Congress, almost harmless to our extant immigration policy.

Just like the CFR legislation when he thought that the Supreme Court wouldn't let it stand and signed it anyway.

I'm sorry, but Bush just dropped another turd in the punchbowl.

i agree. he did the same thing with the ballistics database. i don't particularly like it, but as long as none of the crap becomes law, i'll put up with it.
