That reads more like an illegal immigrant Bill of Rights, I'm sure he ran this by La Raza again.

Take the Pledge: "I pledge to never, ever vote for anyone, for any office, who votes in favor of the Mexican Invasion Surrender Bill."
The penalty for being politically tone-deaf is death of one's political career. Amnesty for illegal immigrants--which means any path to any sort of permanent legal residency of any kind (let alone citizenship,) regardless of cost--is worse than the "third rail of politics." It's the Guillotine.

The legal penalties are less costly than what happens if you improperly pay postage to the United States Postal Service.
The Senate and the President cannot be considered to be serious if they don't think immigration reform and national border security is more important than mailing direct mail advertising.
This year? Why the urgency Bush has had 6+ years to fix this. You would think Clinton had been President.

I would like to bring W out of the shadows, so he can get some idea of what we Americans think.
“That reads more like an illegal immigrant Bill of Rights, I’m sure he ran this by La Raza again.”
ROTFLMAO!!
Even better - put it on a reciprocal basis; U.S. Immigration policies will mirror that of the immigrants' country of orgin when seeking to enter the U.S.
I can't recall any nation on earth where immigration, residency, and citizen requirements are as lax as they are here...
He's clearly and openly saying that he will continue to refuse to enforce our immigration laws ( status quo ) if the bill doesn't pass and it will be our fault.
He should be asked: "Will you continue to allow sanctuary cities to exist if the amnesty bill passes?". He'd have to explain why he'd enforce immigration laws then if he's not willing to enforce immigration laws today. He'll be shielded from ever having to deal with that question.
"Border security and interior enforcement laws need to be improved."
Take out "laws and you have a correct statement. Bush is holding enforcement, his duty, hostage for his mass legalization/wage depression bill.

1. Secure our borders with physical walls if need be and uphold/reiterate existing immigration laws (no need for new ones).
2. Immediately deport all illegal aliens in jail and in prison.
3. Give those that see the will of the American people, a chance to return south of the border (many will after seeing the first two items implemented).
4. Force a screening process for all illegals who remain in the US and put them through the same rigors as a legal immigrant including pledges of allegiance to the USA and to learning our language. Those who don't cooperate are deported.
5. As we secure our borders from illegal immigration, may we resolve to continue the fight to preserve our language, borders and culture.
Maybe an addendum that we don't forget to welcome legal immigrants with open arms remembering that throughout our history, they have often proved to be the most patriotic and hard working of all our citizens.
Keep writing and phoning your senators, folks. No time to let up now. Dubyah’s in a full court press to pass this thing. Why, I really don’t know. Mexico? Big business? Ignorance?
Hola! El Presidente!
Do not urinate down our backs and tell us it is raing!
BULLSH*T Mr. President!
Secure the damn borders, as you’re required to do BY LAW, and stop making excuses for your drunken pal Teddy Kennedy’s attempt to legalize millions of future Democrat voters.
THAT’S what this is all about.
As for the rest - what a joke. There's a big backlog of applications? Hello? How will twelve million more applicants help this, in the slightest way? And taking the Reagan amnesty (and 4 extensions and modifications afterward) as an example, the good news is it won't be twelve million, but only 5 million, as the other seven million ignore it, and the extra million who hop the fence to take advantage of it, also decide not to trust the US government.
I prefer them in the shadows rather than legalized parasites.
