To my knowledge, Bush cannot circumvent a law made by congress unless he does it under war powers(which were not granted to him)or a act of Congress. I can see Congress putting a hold on only immigration from the evil empires but they do not have political cover to do more.

You underestimate the powers of presidency in a time of crisis. Why I don't know. What I said about shutting down immigration from terrorist nations is a relatively easy move for Bush. Tell me, if Bush did the right thing and stopped immigration from these nations do you honestly believe Congress would have fought Bush on this and be clamoring for more immigration from countries like Saudi Arabia? LOL.

Do you think for onr New York minute that congress would curb immigration from the Middle East and risk being labeled as racist, hate mongers by the left? Don't you believe that congress critters each have a large base of immigrants in their districts and that the profiling word would surface like a attack sub.

It would be amusing to watch but you will never see it unless it is done gradually and without fanfare.You far underweight the pro-immigration forces in this country and the role that it plays worldwide.
