President Bush was so buoyed by the warm reception he was given in Albania that he immediately gave all 3 million Albanians American citizenship, provided they learn Spanish. The offer was withdrawn when Bush found out most Albanians haven't broken any U.S. laws.
Bush keeps claiming he's dying to enforce the border, but he just can't do it unless we immediately grant amnesty to 12 million illegal aliens. I wonder if that worked on Laura Bush:
Laura: George, it's time you quit drinking.
George: OK, honey, let's discuss it over cocktails.
How about Bush enforce the border and then we'll discuss his amnesty plan?
He assures us that granting amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants already here won't inspire millions more to run across the border because ... he's going to put infrared lights at the border!
Well, that's a relief. What precisely will infrared lights do again? This is worse than those fake cameras they sell at hardware stores to make it look like you have cameras outside your house. We still need something or someone – say, a wall or a Border Patrol agent – to stop the Mexicans illegally crossing the border as we watch them on the infrared cameras.
Bush won't build a wall, and he keeps prosecuting law enforcement officers who stop illegal border crossers. But trust him: He'll get right on that border enforcement business as soon as we grant amnesty to 12 million illegal aliens.
Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean are normally the sort of Mexican-Americans Bush would tear up at while promoting amnesty for illegal aliens. Both served in the military and are taxpaying, law-abiding citizens. They've been risking their lives as Border Patrol agents for years.
Ramos was nominated for Border Patrol Agent of the Year in 2005. His nomination received a major setback when the Bush administration decided to put him in prison instead. Ramos and Compean are now serving more than 10 years apiece in solitary confinement for chasing a drug-running illegal alien back to Mexico.
Bush's pal, U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton, gave immunity to a Mexican drug dealer hauling a million dollars worth of drugs across the border so the drug dealer could testify against two Border Patrol agents who shot him in the buttocks.
The Border Patrol agents were presumed guilty of an unlawful shooting because they neglected to fill out the proper paperwork. For busting a cap in the butt of a drug courier crossing the border illegally – who was so mortally wounded that he proceeded to scamper back to Mexico – they were supposed to spend five hours filling out paperwork. This is what the Bush administration means when it talks about a "cover-up." As U.S. prosecutor Debra Kanof said, "You have to report any discharge of a firearm."
Intriguingly, Kanof also says: "The Border Patrol pursuit policy prohibits the pursuit of someone." (Hence, the oft-heard warning of the border agent in hot pursuit, "Stop or I'll ... do absolutely nothing!") Can we apply this rule to meter maids and tax collectors? At least now border agents will be able to watch the illegal aliens they can't pursue on infrared cameras!
But wait – that's not all! The Border Patrol agents also exceeded the speed limit. "In order to exceed the speed limit," Kanof said, "you have to get supervisor approval, and they did not." It's just so hard to fill out a written request to exceed the speed limit when you're off-roading at 65 mph. There's a whispering campaign suggesting that Ramos and Compean failed to use their turn signal.
As I understand it, you're also not supposed to cross the border illegally from Mexico with a van full of drugs. But the Bush administration has no interest in enforcing those laws. Ninety-eight percent of illegal aliens captured crossing the border illegally are not prosecuted. Those drugs are doing the job American drugs just won't do!
The Bush administration pulls out the big guns only for serious violations like a Border Patrol officer not filling out paperwork.
In addition to giving the illegal-alien drug smuggler full immunity to testify against U.S. Border Patrol agents, the government gave him taxpayer-funded medical care for his buttocks wound, an unconditional border-crossing card, the right to sue the U.S. for "civil rights" violations and a GAP gift card. The drug runner is also on the short-list to replace Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
He's now suing the U.S. for $5 million, but the Bush administration is hoping to bargain him down to $10 million.
That border-crossing card came in handy when the winged illegal alien brought in another load of drugs a short eight months later – for which he has still not been charged, nearly two years later. Who does he think he is? Rep. William Jefferson?
Bush's pal Sutton keeps defending his decision to prosecute Border Patrol agents for paperwork violations, rather than an illegal alien for drug trafficking, on the grounds that the drug dealer has not been charged with any crimes. Let's see, whose job is it to charge that Mexican drug runner with a crime? Why, I believe that would be Johnny Sutton!
Maybe Sutton was too busy prosecuting another Mexican-American law enforcement officer for trying to stop illegal aliens from crossing our border. Deputy Sheriff Gilmer Hernandez shot at the tires of a van full of illegal aliens, inadvertently wounding one of them. Sutton prosecuted Hernandez. The government proceeded to give the illegal aliens green cards and $100,000 each.
I didn't realize "living in the shadows" meant in the shadows of palm trees around the pools at taxpayer-funded houses.
Illegal aliens might want to rethink Bush's amnesty plan. The only Hispanics Bush seems to prosecute are the ones who are law-abiding U.S. citizens.
“Jail Border Patrol for shooting a Mexican drug runner and
have open borders for Mexico!”
I can understand corruption and kickbacks for turning a blind eye to border crossers and coyotes through politicians and good ole boys, thats bad enough, but when a drug runner has a District Attorney wrapped around his little finger, thats downright scarey. If that was suddenly taken under control, that could very well cost some lives. Amazing corruption across the whole spectrum, even the drugs aren’t a factor.
Ann Coulter for the win.
“Ramos and Compean are now serving more than 10 years apiece in solitary confinement for chasing a drug-running illegal alien back to Mexico.”
That situation just infuriates me!
Good piece, Annie. Now, kick it up a notch. ;)

No, not stupid - just a beer keg that the government keeps tapping.
Folks, the War ain’t over. The South shall rise again..... and this time we win!
People get the government they deserve. Our forefathers took tremendous risks in order to ensure a better future for themselves and their descendants.
If we allow our country to be taken from us, and for our children's children to live in a tyranny presently unknown to us, then we have no one to blame but ourselves.
Does Bush know that he’s President of the United States? It appears he thinks he’s President of Mexico... or of the North American Union.
+1 Rachel! And damn if it doesn't seem like Ann's material isn't getting even better lately.
When our boys get back from overseas and see what has become of their country, the very one that they had been fighting for, what do you think their reaction will be?
In the affairs of human conduct, there aren't any guarantees. Nothing is to say that the entire Congress isn't rounded up and arrested for treason.
The only thing that keeps this from being funny is that it would be like laughing at the pathetic fizzing of the dynamite fuse when you first light it.
Well, look what she's been given to work with. Our beloved el Presidente has made Ann's job easy. When I read this column I didn't know whether to laugh at the absurdity or cry because everything she wrote is true!
Viva la Jorge Bush!!
Double Bravo, Ann!
bttt

Another ten-strike from Ann. :-)
>Does Bush know that he’s President of the United States?<
Globalist George Bush thinks big. He thinks he’s the president of the world!
But wait! What do we know? Maybe he is!
no kidding - JB was my first whiskey when a lad hence I never developed a taste for the barleycorn ...now a fine California grape, well, different story different time
I'm also tempted to weep, but Ann's wonderful wit does take some of the pain away.
"He's now suing the U.S. for $5 million, but the Bush administration is hoping to bargain him down to $10 million.

Absoultely wonderful!
I’m still with the wheat and rye. But the Beams and Daniels of this World leave me cold (and that’s being PC!). There’s far more enjoyable Bourbon out there than those two. One simply has to look.
We all have our tastes. And I hope we enjoy the benefits of those tastes, as long as they’re within our beliefs and lawful. But it’s Bourbon for me, only not the simple kind.
