You asked: "What is Bush thinking?" I can tell you. The Mexican vote has become a larger voting block than the black vote. He's thinking "HISPANIC VOTES". The GOP has had to start every election since 1932 with 90% of the black vote going to the Dim-o-rats. They cannot afford to lose the Hispanic vote. That would be the demise of the GOP in America. Make no mistake about it. I am a Ronald Reagan style Republican and I HATE NAFTA. But, it's all about votes.

There is no evidence that American Hispanics want to lose jobs to foreigners or have open borders. Sure Bush wants the vote of foreign citizens living inside the US but they shouldn't be voting if they aren't citizens. Silvestre Reyes is only in Congress because his Hispanic voters from his mostly Hispanic district liked his Operation Blockade and Hold the Line because they wanted the border closed. It's something other than votes that causes Bush to cave into every demand the corrupt Mexican government is making.
