There is no comparison! We had not had a 9-11 attack with the threat of more terrorist attacks when President Reagan gave 3 million illegals amnesty. There hadn't been an attack on a grade school in Russia that killed hundreds of children, at that time either. The images of that, plus the images of the WTC are burned into the minds of Americans. The illegals during Reagan's time didn't march through the streets of America DEMANDING RIGHTS. There weren't La Raza, MEChA or other racists marching through the streets telling Americans that America was THEIR land and telling them to go back to Europe. They let us know that they intend to take back "their land." THAT didn't sit well with any of us. Surely you can understand why Americans want the borders closed, and NO amnesty? They are a threat to Americans!! Need I go on, or can you see why it's useless to compare President Bush to President Raegan?
