That's it Pat put the whole blame on President Bush! Where the heck were you when Clinton was in office when this was going on too? This has been going on for years and years - I see you have picked up the DU talking points!

[Rodney King]

Buchanan is such a baffoon. I can't beleive he seriously thinks that securing our borders and homeland security are important. W rules!

[jb6]

The official Mexican opinion:

[theDentist]

He has a point. Blaming Clinton, and Bush 1, and Reagan for not tightening up the borders is correct, but W is the President at this time, has been for 5 years, 4 years since 9/11, and he has refused to take action.

[South40]

Reason: the crisis on the border. The ally-ally-in-free immigration policy of George Bush and Vicente Fox, beloved of corporate America, has created a hell on our southern border.

Bush has a cozy relationship with Fox. He also has no intention on protecting our borders. Can you explain why?

[Carling]

Impeachment is obviously extreme, but this doesn't change the fact that Bush's feet should be held to the fire on illegal immigration. We know the Dims won't do anything about it. The only hope is for W to show some backbone on this situation.

[My2Cents]

Nor would Ike, who deported all illegal aliens in 1953, have stood still for this being done to the country he had defended in war.

If I recall correctly, there was a guest worker program during Ike's era.

[ncountylee]

Makes some points but impeachment is not one.

[cowboyway]

Where the heck were you when Clinton was in office when this was going on too? This has been going on for years and years -

Not an excuse. We expected Clinton to do nothing because of his NAFTA policy, political correctness and building another minority base for the dems through liberal issuance of social programs.

Bush is AWOL on the border problem. Period.

[BlueNgold]

OK, who stole Pat's meds?
Please send them back, and quickly.

[Maximum Leader]

Pat Buchanan criticized Clinton regularly on the immigration and trade isues, and yes he even called for Clinton's impeachment (though over Monica and not immigration).

What did Bush say today at his town hall meeting about immigration?

[thoughtomator]

Buchanan is correct here. Impeachment is the proper recourse where the President blatantly, repeatedly, and with contempt, refuses the basic duties of his office.

Jorge is one terrorist attack away from someone here illegally from impeachment. Its an absolute disgrace.

[zipp_city]

I have heard many ways to deal with this Illgal invasion many are humerious but most likly will not happen. The Democraps would like to stampede the Repubs into action so they could be called raciest and use the Illagal's vote against them. So how to stop them and better yet how to have them return home. It is simple these people seem to must have Beer to survive so just turn off the tap so to speak and they will be gone. Note this was done in Oklahama with the 3.2 beer because they had a proplem with a minority they could not afford to let drink.

[Catphish]

If Bush doesn't do something drastic soon and if terrorists slip through the southern border (why wouldn't they come this way?) and pull of a major attack then you might hear quite a few calls for impeachment.

When I think of Pat I think, intelligent imbecile.

Actually illegal immigration is way up since GWBush took office in 2000.  The real invasion and real surge in illegal numbers came during the GWBush years.  Bush sat on his hands. He did as little as a president AlGore would have.

[dennisw]

Great read. Thanks for posting !!

[trubluolyguy]

It is not fair for Pat to blame Bush for the WHOLE problem, but I don't think that is what he is doing here. He is (rightly) blaming the POTUS not for doing nothing, but ofr encouraging more illegals to come here for his (Bush's) business interests ie: supporters.


In other words, Profits over security, Business over Pissed off American citizenry.

Bayourod, Dane and their ilk should be proud.
