all new administrations are never bound by the mistakes of former presidents

I never said they were. I simply pointed out that this is nothing new, but people act like Bush created this problem.

they have absolute power to reverse any of their predecessor's wrong policies by executive order or directives to the various agencies.

Yep, they do, and I sure wish he would. But since not one of his predecessors has done so (not even Reagan) we shouldn't be surprised that Bush isn't doing it either. (Bush certainly didn't promise to take care of this issue during his campaigns.)

Lets not try to make a tar baby out of RR on the issue of todays illegals swamping the nonexistent border defenses. Back then it wasn’t the all consuming issue it is now.

He had his hands full bringing down the Soviets and undoing the damage to the economy of the carter years with a demon666rat dominated congress behaving badly as ever.

Ahem. While Bush didn't actually create the problem he has acted to make it much, much worse.

In September 2001, Bush and Vicente Fox signed the Partnership for Prosperity agreement. This agreement allowed the FDIC to form the New Alliance Task Force. Among other things, it changed the rules under which banks operate. Instead of requiring a US SSN to open a bank account or apply for a auto or home loan, banks could now accept the Mexican Matricular Consular card as valid ID and an income tax return using a ITIN as proof of employment.

It is this act which is most directly responsible for the all-out assault on our borders and the sub-prime lending debacle currently unfolding.

So, while your attention was diverted by the events of 9/11, George W. Bush was working behind your back to sell out American citizens.

In May 2004, Bush's appointed SSA commissioner signed a Social Security Totalization Agreement with Mexico that allows, among other things, the Mexican illegal alien to apply for and receive US Social Security benefits for the time they worked (illegally) in the USA. Not only that, but they can apply for and receive US SS benefits for their Mexican (national) wife and children, even if the wife and children have never stepped foot in the USA.

While your attention was diverted to re-elect George W. Bush, he was working behind your back to sell out future American generations.

No president before him has done more to sell out America than George W. Bush.
