WASHINGTON – President Bush on Friday shoehorned a plug for his guest worker program between making a joke about an award winner and listening to love songs Friday at a White House celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.

Bush said that as lawmakers debate immigration policy, they need to remember that while enforcing U.S. borders is important, it is only one step in the struggle to stop illegal immigration. He pressed Congress to pass his guest worker program to legally bring in new foreign workers and give some of the country's illegal immigrants a shot at U.S. citizenship.

“We must understand that you can't kick 12 million people out of your country – that we must figure out a way to say to those that if you're lawful and if you've contributed to the United States of America, there is a way for you to eventually earn citizenship,” Bush said.

“Nobody in our land wants to grant automatic amnesty. But everybody in our land understands these people must be treated with respect and dignity,” he continued. “There are citizenship lines for people from our neighborhood. People ought to be given a chance to get at the back of the citizenship line and have a chance.”

Latin pop singer Ana Christina closed the event in the East Room with three love songs, singing one in English and two in Spanish.

Bush opened the event with a few jokes.

“I am proud to be here with Lt. Col. Consuelo Kickbusch,” Bush said about an influential Hispanic motivational speaker and the highest ranking Hispanic woman in the Army, who won the 2006 Hispanic Heritage Award.

“Interesting name: Kickbusch,” Bush said. “Sounds like a political campaign.”

There he goes again!

If he can't see by now.....there is no way these people are going to abide by ANY path to EARNED citizenship.

People ought to be given a chance to get at the back of the citizenship line and have a chance.

No, George, these people ought to get the hell out of the country, then try to get back in legally. Apparently this concept is beyond your comprehension level.

“We must understand that you can't kick 12 million people out of your country – that we must figure out a way to say to those that if you're lawful and if you've contributed to the United States of America, there is a way for you to eventually earn citizenship,” Bush said.

No, Mr. Lunatic Wackident, YOU must understand that we ARE going to kick out 12 million people from this country because they are Illegales and we don't wnat them here.

See...this is the United States, Wacko, and American Citizens decide who enters, who stays and who leaves. See, Traitor, we have laws, very clear easy to read and comprehend laws that express this very succintly and enough so that a 10 year old could understand it.

See....you are the one who has to understand that you have broken our laws; spit on them; kicked them in their kidneys; something only a Derelict Traitor would do.

See...what you have to understand is that these Illegales are going home and there's a good chance before this Madness is over and corrected, that you'll be going to Jail.

“We must understand that you can't kick 12 million people out of your country

Sure we can!

"Sure we can"

And we will.

WE MUST!

YOU do not have the right to give our country away! Period. The only "stupid" person on this earth that believes you can convince the l
American people of the insane remark that we cannot REMOVE these people is YOU...and your administration! YOUR words are worthless.
"The worst president ever to exist in the United States!"
