That is a gracious way of describing what happened when Bush first brought up his proposal....LOL:-)
I recall being up to my neck in exchanges with Sabertooth and it was not pretty. The premise of a guest worker program was slammed unmercifully, as well as the proposer, the president.
The day the amnesty word was used, the spikes in crossings began and that was about two years ago IIRC.
It is still being used, the program is still being slammed, as is the president, and you blame the extra crossings on him as well........hmmmmmmmmmm.....
Just thought I would do my best to set that matter straight.
I hate to tell you this, but any guest worker program will fail by design, leaving the illegals still here clamoring for amnesty. And it will end up as a de facto amnesty.
I would actually prefer increased border security coupled with more legal immigration and expedited processing. That, IMO, would cut the demand for illegals.
