It's actually not the President. In 2004 he outlined a plan which included 2, 3-year guest worker visas, then you go home and apply for permanent residency (green card) if you like. He's repeatedly spoken out against amnesty.
But there is a HUGE disconnect between what GWB has said, and his utter and negligent failure to reprimand the Senate leadership for pushing a "path to citizenship" which is neither called for nor desired by 70 percent of the American people. Nor was it ever called for by GWB. They - the Senate - are delivering a bill which no one wants.
GWB owns the bully pulpit, and if he cannot find the cajones to speak-out against this rogue Senate then he is either complicit in their actions, or he is not a leader. Right now because of his utter failure to address the issue in any coherent manner, he is actually thought to be both.
Personally I won't believe anything he says other than this: "I will veto any immigration or border bill which includes an amnesty."

"Excuse me .. why is it ALL the responsibility of the President ..?? What's wrong with the rest of them ..??" It is the President's responsibility to lead. Now, he must set the immigration policy in place that the American people demand, and then force the RINO Senate to follow his lead.

Bush runs ICE and Border and claims he does not favor deportations ...over and over.
And calls those trying to stop it vigilantes.
His hands are dirty on this issue to be sure. he and the RINOS
We know what the Dems would do already.

Excuse me .. why is it ALL the responsibility of the President ..?? What's wrong with the rest of them ..?? You're right. It started long ago. Reagan's signing of an amnesty bill in 1986 was an act of political expediency and encouraged more illegal immigration by rewarding the law breakers. The situation has grown progressively worse from Bush 41 onwards.
The reason why many of us are upset with Bush 43 is that border security has become a matter of national security after 9/11. Almost five years later we still have illegals pouring across our borders in huge numbers. Although six million have been caught during the Bush administration and sent back, an estimated 500,000 a year are getting through.
The number of those caught over the past five years, i.e., six million, works out to 1.2 million annually or 100,000 a month. I would call this an invasion.

If Bush says he is putting the guard on the border and will veto any bill that lets a single illegal stay here, he can point fingers at the squishy senators. If he continues to support amnesty himself, he is just the leading squish. It really isn't complicated. The country wants real enforcement. It doesn't want real enforcement plus amnesty. The president can pledge to veto any amnesty tomorrow and the idea will be dead as a doornail. So far, he is trying to do anything he can to get an amnesty through, instead.
