I have an assignment for you. Go dig up that speech or newspaper quote where Bush said: I want a guest worker program, just make sure the borders aren't secured. I'll wait.
Gawd, that was your worst post yet, and you are clearly being obtuse now.
Bush started seriously talking about a guest worker program.
The borders were not secure when he did this.
And then illegal crossings increased.
And you know that's what I meant.
Onyx, here is one poster who is not for border security first, BTW. LM seems to be unwilling to learn from Reagan's amnesty that you cannot deal with those already here without closing the door first, or else more come in the door.
Ya beat me on that reply...
Bush was very clear that a secured border was critical to the rest of it succeeding in taking the pressure off the border and correcting past mistakes.
Much improved border security was always tied to the comprehensiveness of the plan. He said it more times then I can count and he never wavered..
