He had nothing to say to her except call her "mean".

Since there are no good arguments to support illegal immigration, the illegal immigration cheerleaders can only resort to lies, name-calling, and waving the Race Card in order to support their position.

"Someone told him to."

He lost the support of the gay marriage crowd so this is his chance to appeal to another interest group.

I'm going to pull my hair out living in this state.

 I hear you. I used to live there. I used to love Boston's ethnic restaurants fueled by immigration legal and illegal. Now it's all a bad bad joke.

This doesn't surprise me..what surprised me was doing it in Texas.

Why would that surprise you? Bush is from Texas and as far as I can tell he hasn't met an illegal alien he doesn't like.

Call his office and ask what other laws he thinks are OK to break. If the government won't enforce the immigration laws why should it enforce any?

If the government's going to use the excuse that there are just to many illegals to roundup, what will they do when large numbers American people catch on and decide not to pay taxes? The government is sending a bad message.
