"His amnesty program is making Bush look like a fool, he doesn't need the mullahs help"

Another case of IYHO.

Bush has had the same position on immigration since the 2000 election. I hardly think that makes him look like a fool. Quite the contrary, I think dolts like you who think there is only one "right" view of the immigration issue look foolish.

He hasn't. He then promised to enforce our borders while doing nothing of the sort and instead trying to bring amnesty and ensure an on-going flow across the border.

"Bush has had the same position on immigration since the 2000 election."

Maybe he has.
But I must have missed a promise to safeguard defects in the immigration system.

BUT...with some fairness to Dubya, he did have to fight institutional inertia.
Amazing that even 9-11 can't even seem to wound the giant beast of bureaucracy.

Was it immigration or culture re-building into the "new America"?

THE "NEW AMERICAN"

We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

As I speak, we are celebrating the success of democracy in Mexico.

George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000.

You can read the speech here.

Here is an excerpt of a good critique of that speech:

In equating our intimate historic bonds to our mother country and to Canada with our ties to Mexico, W. shows a staggering ignorance of the civilizational facts of life. The reason we are so close to Britain and Canada is that we share with them a common historical culture, language, literature, and legal system, as well as similar standards of behavior, expectations of public officials, and so on.
