Your links don't work, but it's nice to see I've at least got you to stop quoting your brother.

That's something, anyway.

LOL!

Try this, then.

As I said, if you look, this issue isn't high-priority. So claims that Bush took pains to "hide his open borders agenda" as WRhine claims does not ring true.

From his book, "A Charge to Keep":
"I believe it is far more compassionate to turn away people at the border than to attempt to find and arrest them once they are living in our country illegally."

He's made similar comments during the campaign as he did when he pushed for the 245(i) extension, like "Family values do not stop at the Rio Grande."

Source for both quotes:

If you have proof that he promised, "No 245(i) extension" or something along those lines, and has broken that promise, then post it.

This issue was not one that many voters found to be very important in 2000, nor is it in this election cycle. We'll have to wait and see for 2004, but I do not think that it will be that big. As far as I can tell, he did not lie on this issue, and I will take issue with anyone who claims he did unless they can prove their claims.
