I disagree...I believe it is sarcastic AGAINST the President's ill-conceived Immigration Policy.
IMVHO...MUD
Ok, you think it is JUST sarcastic against his immigration polices.
Well, MUD.... that little jab about "sobbering up" is not sarcastic against his policies it IS sarcastic against him ... a man who quit drinking long ago and is QUITE SOBER now.
I like satire when it's fair. That "sobbering up" comment was unfair and unnecessary in the context of the piece.
You may knock his immigration policies... and by the way, I do not like all his policies on it at all... but I do not knock a man for his well known success in giving up the booze. Bush has sobbered up. THANK GOD!
