In separate remarks made in Washington, former ambassador Jeffrey Davidow acknowledged Mexico won't get everything it wants on immigration, noting "there won't be 'the whole enchilada'" - a phrase once used by diplomats to describe Mexican proposals for mass legalization and freer movement of workers across the border.

This remark is quite telling. Seems that an Amnesty deal is on its way and the administration is trying to sell it as "were not giving Mexico 100% of what it wants". WOW! As if what Mexico wants has ANY relevance whatsoever to our lawmaking. Though the sad fact is that with Bush, what Mexico wants is of the utmost importance.

As America unravels due to out of control legal and illegal immigration we find our elected officials dreaming up ways to make this crisis even worse.

Who do these people work for? It certainly isn't the American People.

They're going to find a way to push this through Congress. The other day Fox was pushing amnesty as a way to improve American national security - this is probably how they'll try to frame the debate.

Bush wasted no time post election to begin the "earned legalization' dialogue. It's got me wondering just what his real agenda is here since drawing in Hispanic voters can't be used as an excuse anymore??

Lott now wants troops on the border, will Bush oppose that too? I've said a thousand times, I want to support him, but sheesh he doesn't make it easy for a lot of us. I hope at this point Tancredo challenges him in the primaries, if for any reason to draw out a debate on this issue.
