Cmon bud, should the immigration problem be blamed on this President? ........Hell no, it's been a problem for decades, but just like the homeless problem, it only gets attention when a Republican is in office.
Shortly after GWB was sworn in, the NYT's started writing 3 to 5 articles a day about Illegal immigration and how the problem must be addressed, a subject completely off the table when Slick Willy was in office, why so many people fall for this tactic by the left is beyond me. This POTUS is not responsible for the problem, CONGRESS is. Don't allow yourself to be a tool for the left

I'm not blaming the original problem on Dubya.
However, the only improvement I have seen over Clintoon's administration was during the period immediately after 9/11. Then it was back to business as usual and benign neglect, except when enforcement gets cut in favor of rescue missions or the apprehension numbers start getting too big and embarrassing and the agents are ordered to lay off.
Now we have to deal with the "unintended consequences" of his guest worker proposals, because quite a few illegals caught here are admitting they came for the impending amnesty. Last year was ugly, but this year is shaping up as a nightmare. We're not even in the busy season yet.
This is a hot-button issue here in Arizona. It's the one issue we have to deal with daily. It cuts across party lines, though I will admit a lot of our local Dems are more conservative than urban Republicans on either coast. Most local candidates here don't bother to list a party affiliation in their literature or on their signs and nobody really cares.
In any event, voters here from both parties are looking at their choices in November and declaring it a lose-lose proposition.
My only real interest in the upcoming election is to get a certain young fire-breathin' knuckle-draggin' true conservative to run against our openly gay RINO congesscritter, Jim Kolbe, and put that sorry POS out to pasture.
