Thread: Bush suggests lack of guest-worker program could trigger lab

A labor shortage? Does that qualify 20 million illegal immigrants and there children to stay?
At this point Bush is just a laughing stock. He just does not get it. I hope he just keeps on sticking his foot in his mouth.

"If we leave the streets of Baghdad before the job is done, we will have to face the terrorists in our own cities. I have left open the Mexican border in order to make it easier for the terrorists." -George W. Bush

Good! That will give supply and demand a chance to raise the wages of American workers...just like it should have been for 20+ years!

Labor shortage? Kind of hard to believe that when we're swimming in illegals.

He referred to the 11 million illegals. Of course this figure comes from 2004 and he, himself, said that over 1 million were arrested last year. If you apply the 1-4 principle, then we have that many arrive since 2004!!!

A man stood up and said, "the last time that many Mexicans crossed the border, they had guns in their hand," and was concerned about the number of Mexicans in the country. Bush made a "funny" in reference to TN & TX and said "next question." Everytime he had a border question, he stumbled all over himself and then went off on another tangent.

The question about terrorists coming across the open border turned into a spiel for guest workers!!!

ITS A LIE. THERE IS NO LABOR SHORTAGE. THE DAY AFTER SWIFT WAS BUSTED, THERE WAS A LINE AROUND THE BLOCK FOR THOSE JOBS. IT IS NOTHING BUT A LIE.

THERE IS NO SHORTAGE. THERE IS ONLY GOING TO BE A SHORTAGE OF ILLEGAL SLAVES WHO HAVE NO POWER TO STAND UP TO THEIR EMPLOYER. THERE WILL BE A SHORTAGE OF PEOPLE WHO CAN SUE IF THEY ARE INJURED ON THE JOB. AND THERE WILL BE A SHORTAGE OF WORKERS WHO HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO WORK FOR NOTHING AND HAVE NO RIGHTS.

Now maybe they will be able to find work. When I drive by all those new homes being built by illegals it makes me sick........Illegals go back to your OWN country!

The idea that the Open Borders Lobby has of legalizing illegal immigrants is a complete scam. They just want to overrun the whole US with so many new immigrants that nobody will be able to hold down a job that pays more than five dollars an hour.

He means a shortage of $5 an hour workers. At $15 or $20 an hour there is no shortage.

Looks like more Americans are going to have to rev up their lawnmowers.
