ams, the closing ***an ex-Republican base voter*** is a [probably lame] attempt to get across to the Repubs the message that they can't take the votes of the base for granted.

I do believe that Bush's chosen path of 'solving' the Illegal Immigrant issue is to openly admit defeat and surrender with dishonor.

I favor pumping $billions more into active border enforcement and the investigation and punishment of employers hiring the illegals as current law dictates. Also the creation of dedicated courts and related facilities to swiftly deal with what would be an increased number of suspected illegals identified, with immediate deportation of the guilty. Once the jobs provided by unscrupulous American employers dried up, the Illegal flood will stop. I will gladly pay 10 cents more for a tomato or onion or head of lettuce, that's a lot less than I'm paying now in increased property taxes.

Demand that Fox seal his side of the border instead of dumping his excess poor into my country.

Will Bush do any of this? No.

Will John Kerry do any of this either?

Will John Kerry do anything else you want?

Don't bother giving me the "send a message" nonsense. I don't buy it.
