Let's see...The chances of Bush appointing the woman who's been nothing but critical of the immigration policies of his administration is...um...er..ah...eh...well...zero.

You may be right, but another nominee like Ziglar would be very illuminating, wouldn't it?

Many Bush defenders have blamed the lackluster performance of the INS on the current Chief.

Whomever Bush nominates, it will be indicative of the President's true sentiments regarding Illegal Aliens. This is an opportunity for him to shut his critics up.

That would be nice..we've got a Senate to win. Thanks to PhiKapMom, I'll be emailing Sensenbrenner on Monday.

She could accomplish wonders, just in us having her name up front and personal.

It is likely that he will nominate someone pro-illegal immigration just to slap the face of 70% of the American public. Look for somebody out of the Chamber of Commerce, big business, the crowd that loves cheap labor; or, equally likely, someone "Hispanic", to pander to the "Hispanic" vote this fall.

Hoping that GWB or, in reality, Karl Rove will do the sensible political thing may be wishful thinking.

Well, I've never been critical of Bush's immigration policies myself. As freepers go, this is one of the few issues where I find myself on the other side of the fence.
