Mr. Bush, your legacy is the death of your party, and quite possibly the death of our country. I don’t know how you sleep at night...

Bush is just another Ivy League goofball who believes the Marxist indoctrination he received at Yale. He and his father have done incredible damage to the Republican brand, along with all the other RINO’s.

The Bushes believe in big government “helping” people, their charity is our misery.

Immigration reform = open borders that say “cha-ching” for nothern-wandering peasants from Mexico.

free hospital care
free education for the kids (meals #1 & #2 included)
free housing via HUD
free cash from SSI
free food from WIC (meal #3)
preferred admissions into colleges
preferred financial aid
free social security that they have not contributed to

no need to speak the native language or assimilate

yes, the USA offer so much Mexico doesn’t...and now as Obama wants to lessen sentences for gang members (his track record coddles criminals - see Illinois/Chicago record) gangs will soon rule our streets, just like good old Mexico.

thank you Jorge Bush, hearing blaring polka music at 4 AM with people firing off rounds is my idea of a wonderful immigration policy

amnesty is coming...Barry Soetero will do everything in his Kenyan soul to make it happen as 12,000,000 new Latino citizens will carry him to 2016...

buh bye USA, welcome 3rd World...if you haven’t been to your local Home Depot or liquor store lately, you must realize that Mayberry is gone, welcome Tijuana.

Americans responded negatively in numbers never seen before and this pro-amnesty schmuck calls it his legacy!?

What an idiot.

Yeah, the kind of legacy to be proud of! Unfortunately, I think Bush is caught up in this because some of his family is Hispanic and from Mexico. He is under this impression that we need to add people who come here illegally when we are already up there in population and this will only encourage more of the same law breaking. Disastrous and he never would win over the ‘Hispanic vote’ because it is unfortunate but today they are becoming the new ‘black vote’ who are seeking out not only strength in numbers but entitlements and having their loyalties elsewhere but not to this country. The same kind who come from third world countries where they are allowed to vote and destroy their own countries time and again and never diverge from the bad policy of those they continually elect. Naturally, they are Demonrats when they come here.

This piece is horribly misnamed. There’s not record of Bush touting anything in the text of the article.

Whatever his rationalization for not enforcing the law and the Constitution, I reject them 1000%

When I googled “Fair Immigration Reform Movement “, I didn’t like what I saw—reads like pro amnesty—nothing on chain migration and more drive through anchor baby births. With amnesty, chain migration will eliminate the USA essentially. Is this going to be another one of those May Day parades like a few years ago? Who is going to led the counter protest? It is not an issue to be quiet on.

An AMAZING analysis.

Bush did more to increase the Hispanic population in America by his neglect of our border and refusal to enforce immigration laws than anyone I know of.

Perhaps this fellow think all South Americans, Central Americans and Mexicans should have a birthright of American citizenship.

I wasn't born in a Latin American country, and I don't want to live in one. If I did, I would go to Mexico. There I would be expected to learn THEIR language and adopt THEIR customs. If they come HERE - to an ANGLO country - they should reciprocate. That is something the author of this piece, Bush, McCain and Ted Kennedy are apparently incapable of comprehending.

Did Bush have an immigration policy? I must have missed the announcement.

I have no problem with the Bushes helping people... just so long as they use their own money.
American people are extremely generous and I do believe that each individual is more than capable of deciding who they want to “help”.
Big government never really helps anyone but itself.
