RE:”Papa Bush issued more green cards per year than any other POTUS I am aware of. Surprisingly (?), the number went way down under Clinton and went up again under Bush Jr

The GWB years completely changed Maryland into a state of foreigners. I never saw so many immigrants in my life and it continues now.

Recall that during GWB Years the Republicans believed their own BS that the Housing bubble was proof that Republicans found the magic stone, we could wage two wars, cut taxes and grow government social spending and it all was free based on his magic 'tax cut' economy. It's harder to remember now because the same Republicans claim after 8 years Bush bears no responsibility for HIS economy.

Back to your point, in those BOOM years we were told we need massive immigration and amnesty to fill all those jobs. That was the Koolaid. The economy went into a dive Sept 2007 about 6 months after the Bush/Pelosi amnesty bill died in congress.
