You know looking at this article brings a few colorful thoughts to mind...

The one that stands out the most...

Zero-Tolerance

If that policy is good fer the children, then its got to be good to apply to this issue...

I am still not convinced that the direction presented by President Bush is the best course...I think that whatever it is, it is an election year ploy/strategy...And not that that is a bad thing, I just think its another feeble attempt by our government to poorly implement a policy that will not work, and will become more of a burden on those having to enforce it...

So if the banditos are jacking up shipments of illegals on our highways, on our side of the border, we obviously are continuing to fail in the laws that ARE on the books that need to be enforced...

I'll probably have more later, but I got dinner on the table now...BRB

Later,
Steve

Exactly.
A first-term President has to aquiesce to certain things that a second term President does not. There may be aspects to this "amnesty" (which allows us to identify and track these illegals and which also encourages them to go the hell home) that we do not yet know about.. the power of Google notwithstanding.

I reserve judgement.

Bush's proposal is a brilliant move in a complex chess game.

This is the impression I got after hearing his proposal.
