The Reagan speech was great, glad you posted it. And yes he talks about closer relations with Mexico and Canada, as many before him had done. But nothing in the speech says he's in favor of illegal immigration, or that we should incorporate the three countries into one entity. That is in fact what Bush's buddy Senior Fox is saying, and I haven't heard Bush shoot it down.

As I said in a previous post, I think Reagan was a strong believer in legal immigration, and that's fine, although I think today's numbers of almost a million a year are a bit much. During the eighties, the annual rate was about 500,000 and I never heard Reagan say we needed to increase it.

I'm not trying to get into a heated argument with you either, but I believe you're taking Reagan's views on legal immigration and carrying them over to the illegal ones as well. His statements contradict that. The only thing I hear coming out of Bush's mouth today is we should try to find ways to legalize all the illegals here. That is not in the best interest of the country, or the Republican party.

This annoys me. Almost everytime I see Bush on TV, it has something to do with the war on terrorism. He is riding that wave of popularity to the fullest.

But yet on this thread, U.S. President George W. Bush on Wednesday denied he was considering legalizing over three million undocumented Mexicans living in the United States, government news agency Notimex reported.

I want Bush to stand up on TV and explain to me why he proposed amnesty, why he pushed 245(i) through the House, and why today he denied he is considering legalizing 3 million undocumented Mexicans. You can't have it both ways. Sorry!!
