Please notify me via FReepmail if you would like to be added to or taken off the Radio Address Ping List.
Does anyone know who keeps an immigration, border patrol ping list?
Is this a spoof or just more token gestures? ;-)
I haven't kept track of this issue, but this was what his radio address was today.
Click on the links.
Let Condi speak for you, George.
I should have said, check the WhiteHouse.gov link:

When our govt. really cares about our borders, start watching for flocks of flying pigs.
How did scrappleface get ahold of a .gov url??
Maybe the knee jerk Bush critics might actually find out some facts at least ONE time? Just ONE time instead of the usual mindless knee jerk rants?
Really, any talk about border security from our govt. is a joke.
Sounds like a plan to me.
Well said! I know that a lot of Freepers are worried, or maybe a bit annoyed with the Pres. about this. But mostly they support him otherwise; and are willing to at least listen to what he says/check the facts about what's been done, and hold their fire! But there are the one bunch of them that will not listen, or read what is done already by the Pres. and Congress, and will fill up these threads with ugly insults and ridicule!
From what I've read, there have been attempts made by Pres., Congress, and by state authorities to control the borders. Maybe they could do more, I guess. But to say that nothing is done, they don't care(and some don't!), he wants open borders/overall, etc.. is nonsense, and not true!
Most of the illegal aliens from Mexico aren't caught and it is rare to see any illegal alien from Mexico get deported.
And, here it comes...
As we improve and expand our efforts to secure our borders, we must also recognize that enforcement cannot work unless it's part of a comprehensive immigration reform that includes a temporary worker program. If an employer has a job that no American is willing to take, we need to find a way to fill that demand by matching willing employers with willing workers from foreign countries on a temporary and legal basis.
I'm afraid I left out something in last sentance. This was "open borders/overall amnesty". Er, excuse me!(red-faced now)
Both gubamyster and HiJinx do, so I pinged them.
and will fill up these threads with ugly insults and ridicule!
That kind of thing hasn't happened in awhile. Yes, there are those of us who are not pleased with the Administration's lack of apparent response to this issue. There are even those of us who criticize President Bush for appearing to be a buddy of President Fox and a One World Order kind of guy.
But we also have the integrity to acknowledge and praise our President when he does the right thing, as this legislation and this radio address appear to be.
Illegal alien Mexicans - the protected class. The "different plan", of course is to let them stay, all 15? million of them, and there won't be a thing to stop the next 15 million from coming in after amnesty is granted.
What happened to the promise several years back that "there will be no more amnesties" for Mexicans?
