By moving forward with this bill we'll also help meet the needs of a growing economy. When the economy grows, people are looking for workers. That's economics one. (Laughter.) You're probably some who are looking for workers. As you get expanded work orders, you're wondering whether you can find the workers to meet the needs. That's what happens when the economy grows. You need workers to make the economy grow.

The reality is, in America, that the construction industry and other sectors depend on foreign workers to fill jobs Americans are not doing. That's the reality of the world we live in. So once our border security and work site enforcement measure is in place, this bill will create a new temporary worker program. The program will establish a lawful and orderly process for foreign workers to come to America on a temporary basis. This will help reduce the number of people trying to sneak across our border. If you're truly interested in border security, it makes sense to give people a legal way to come to do work Americans aren't doing, on a temporary basis.

Such tremendous eloquence! A symphony of ethos, pathos, and logos! Cicero and Solon had nothing on good old GWB.

Uh....how many locals showed up today to replace the 500 some illegals caught in the Portland, OR plant the other day? ......chirp....chirp....chirp....

Obviously the Washington elite have never been kicked off a job-site by illegals muscling in. Jobs that Americans won’t do? Jobs that Americans can’t have.

“A symphony of ethos”....and, A sympathy for the devil.
