I literally can't even stand to look at GWB any more.
After 9/11 he had a duty to further protect this country where we are weak. Immigration is our biggest weakness. 95% of the people would have favored strict enforcement of immigration laws after 9/11. He did not do that for obviou$$$$$ reasons.
Were it not for him, this b.s. would not even be discussed.
> Immigration is our biggest weakness.
Immigrants are not your biggest weakness, mate. People who *choose* to be American aren't a problem at all. They pay taxes just like you do. And they are there, not by accident of birth but by choice.
America is a great Nation built by Immigrants. If you don't like that, well, go home and give it back to the Indians. (They won't complain and will probably do a better job).
I'm an immigrant -- not to America. New Zealand is now my home, by choice. I've paid top tax bracket dollars since landing here. NZ is my home, and I'd fight and die for my right to be a Citizen (which I now am).
No, America's biggest weakness is bigotry. Go read the base of the Statue of Liberty. True or False?
You're right, chris1, even though the illegal invasion has been going on for decades, and immigration law in re illegals from south of the border has been missing in action ... in a post-9/11 world, there is NO EXCUSE for negligence of border security, employer sanctions, background checks and deportations.
In fact, you will recall that even though the homeland security bill the president signed in November 2004 mandated 2,000 new BP agents per year for 5 years, the administration pared it down to 150 per year. Now, how can they do that once it's signed into law? And why?
It is a studied and deliberate lack of law enforcement.
