Bush says "no amnesty" and then talks of a "guest worker plan" which is really nothing but an amnesty.

But he is telling the truth. It won't be an amnesty but rather a shamnesty. But other than the different label there is no difference between the two. His contempt for our intelligence is breathtaking.

With respect to immigration, the thing that pissed me off the most about the President's speech last night was when he played the race card against his own conservative base.

“We hear claims that immigrants are somehow bad for the economy — even though this economy could not function without them.”

That line was right out of the Leftist Play Book. He deliberately blurred the line between illegal and legal immigrants. He implied that rather than being upset about ILLEGAL immigration we were just a bunch of anti-immigrant xenophobes.

Liberal race baiting is a tactic beneath contempt and leaves me with no reason to trust the President on this issue.

I caught that line too and before I realized it the word ba*tard came out of my mouth. Face it George W. cares more about foreigners than he does U.S. citizens.
When he speaks of "liberating" people in other countries I always think...why not "liberate" us first, from politicians who don't give a dam about us, oppressive taxation to pay for all the foreign bs, etc., etc.

George W. is just another politician......sadly.

"“We hear claims that immigrants are somehow bad for the economy — even though this economy could not function without them.”"

That line really made me want to break the television set. Is Bush really trying to pull the wool over the American peoples' eyes by pretending that all immigrants are legal? He knows the debate isn't about a good level of legal immigration in all sane corners. The emperor has no clothes!
