A porous insecure border is not a failing of the Bush Administration...it’s there official policy.

It was official policy LONG before Bush took office.

Tell that to the thousands of American victims of illegal alien drunk driving, murder, rape, robbery, burglary, shootings, drug smuggling, fraud, etc over the past 6 years.

Those things occurred before Bush took office as well. If you want to fault Bush on this issue, then you must also fault Reagan and Bush Sr. (Reagan especially

I have a 2 questions for you.

1. So if you took over a large corporation as a CEO, that was previously hiring illegal aliens, and you continued that policy, of knowingly recruiting illegals, are you directly at fault here and responsible for the current situation?

2. If Reagan were alive today and was president, given our *current* situation of complete out of control, lawless borders, do you think Reagan would have failed to secure our borders during wartime, and pushed for amnesty even though the huge majority of Americans are totally against it?

You share the blame with former CEOs that set and followed the policy.

Yes. Americans were against amnesty when it was granted under Reagan, but he did it anyway. I'm quite sure he thought it was the right thing to do, of course, but he was wrong. Also, I do think Reagan would fail to secure our borders. He failed to secure them against the enemies we had at that time (which, by the way, included Islamicists as well as the USSR). Again, I'm sure he thought he was doing the right thing, but he was wrong.
