That's a large part of my outrage over this issue. Our "overlords" don't really need to worry about that ugly little angle.

"overlords" ignore it all. They should ALL go to jail.

[humblegunner]

And SPEAK ENGLISH he says!

I can't find any fault with that.

[daguberment]

Aww, crud. Now he's talking about my kid's job at Pizza Hut.

Yea, you got it. No US kids should be working, 'cause we've got others who need that job.

[glasseye]

from stealing hubcaps too robbing banks......

[mtbopfuyn]

Unity? No, they are disrupting America and gov freebies are taking food out of our children's mouths.

[Pox]

A mixed bag.

Still, call it what you will, but this pseudo-amnesty BS is still rewarding criminals.

Screw our current government. We've been sold out again.

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

this is complete crap.....unless the Rep's in the House and Senate hold a press conference and refute this nonsesne TOMORROW then we can kiss the house and senate goodbye

[jazusamo]

Arm Chair Quarterbacking makes good web-sport but the responsibility of the free world isn't so easy.

Amen, there is no simple answer to the problem, this sounds like a start.

"AMNESTY - BUSH SAYS ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS PAY A FINE - PAY BACK TAXES - AND APPLY"

That's a dramatic change from what he proposed in January 2004. I guess GWB has "evolved".

[advance_copy]

Yep, IMHO, he is doing just fine

Me, too. And I was criticizing President Bush earlier. I don't have a real problem with anything proposed by the President tonight, and I like some of it very much.

[catholicfreeper]

"W opposes amnesty but want worker program? Wishy washy.

Deport them NOW!"


I hope your first in line to be a Foster parent to all the children that are now American citizens when there parents are deported . Thats what in part he means by "deep roots"

[shattered]

But it is amnesty.

05/05/00 - Steve Sailer on Mexico - Shackled to an [ungrateful] corpse

Shackled to an [ungrateful] corpse. Part 1 of a Series on the Mexican racial hierarchy and its implications for America. By Steve Sailer ...

[Halls]

som than what does he plan to do, keep letting the illegals live here with never gaining citizenship!

[Seniram US]

I have been a Republican for as long as I can remember and a strong supporter of President Bush, but for the first time, I find it difficult to take any of this speech seriously. Less than too, little, too late.

Sounds like Clinton or Kerry. I'm against amnesty, but I'm for a path to citizenship.

Maybe this is Saturday Night Live.

I am not upset with this speech, I think this is reasonable, and I think this is very important. What the democrats have taught us is incrementalism works. He has made a solid foray with good conservative steps with compromise being on our terms, not theirs. I think this is a home run.

[mad_as_he$$]

Yup or some other evil force. Makes me sick.

Melting pot? Learn English. The Voting Rights Act was just renewed -- with voting info & ballots in foreign languages. Yeah, right.
