President George W. Bush told a group of Texas reporters Friday that he regretted immigration policies were not reformed while he was in office.
"I'm very disappointed that it didn't pass," he said in an interview with correspondents from his home state. "I'm very worried about the message that said, 'Republicans are anti-immigrant.'"

>>The rino is a fool as most democrats and republicrats are and are neo liberals and prove once again that there is none so blind as those who will not see. The men of the RNC who now control the dead GOP are as liberal and as stupid as the left wing communist democrats are. They kill the golden goose and are too stupid to know it.<<
EXACTLY! The RNC is so out of touch with what the base wants, it's unbelievable, which is why I'm praying for Ken Blackwell to become the new chairman.

OK, what has Bush done lately except destroy the Republican party and give us rampant socialism.
Bush’s I’m gonna be a punching bag strategy has been a spectacular failure for freedom and liberty.
Yes, I voted for Bush twice.

>>For a President who was so right for the time in terms of 9/11, he is a great disappointment in everything else. Sad Even though he has pissed off conservatives, I have a feeling we'll be missing him sooner rather than later...IMO, it's gonna get very bad before it gets better.<<
That's like saying I'd miss having cancer.

“As the job market dries up in America, illegals are going back to Mexico. Its an historic pattern: come to the U.S. to make more money, go back home when youve made enough, or theres no money to be made.”
After Obama becomes President illegals will just bring their families to the US and put them into the Job Corp (or whatever Obama calls it) to earn a living here. They will get all of the benefits that they need.

NONE of the elitist politician's running this country do! They've got trust funds and tax shelters so they don't have to pay taxes but us peasants (and that's EXACTLY what they think of us!) do!
Nancy Pelousy was talking about raising taxes on the rich the other day. The rich don't pay taxes! I earn about 30 grand a year and its unreal how much I pay and I'm far, far, far from being rich!

Yep, I hate to say it but that mean and piggy-eyed Clinton was more of a Conservative than THE MORON.

If Bush had another term, I'm sure he'd do the same.

Be careful what you wish for. The new administration will be far worse, and will not be worried about pressure from Republicans.
True, but the point you're missing is that it won't be A REPUBLICAN who is doing the WRONG thing thereby further running the GOP into the ground and into a deeper minority status.

What are the lonely old maids on the “day in the life” worship thread going to do 10 days from now when their precious amnesty-Jorge is gone? Will they just take up worship of Hussein and family?

I remember when the Job Corps first started, back in the 1960’s. One of the white, middle-class kids in my high school class signed up for a job. When asked if he didn’t feel guilty for taking the job away from a poor person, his response was more or less, “Why not, it’s money.”

THIS IDIOT SURE AS HECK REGRETS A LOT NOW. Too danged bad the bum did not think of all these regrets back when he had his head up his rear and did nothing about closing the danged borders. JUST GO AWAY JORGE. GO, GO, GO. You rank right up there with Klinton and Carter as an idiot. My regret is that in 2000 I did not support some other republican.

Please fill me in. I don't know what this thread is but it sounds like a real hoot.

A wrong is a wrong,be it Demo or Rep. Sounds to me like CUTTING YOUR NOSE OFF TO SPITE YOUR FACE.

I think you're right, but I expect more government from a socialist like Barry, not someone who claimed to be a Conservative like THE MORON.

Those of us who know something about immigration would also like to see our legal immigration policies changed and the numbers reduced from the current 1.2 million to about 300,000 a year. Our current legal immigration policies will make the Reps the permanent minority party even if we were able to control illegal immigration.
