Bush asks Congress to allow more immigrants into U.S.

CRAWFORD, Texas -- President Bush says he's fulfilled his pledge to help beef up border security by sending National Guard troops to Southwestern states.

Now, he's challenging Congress to give him legislation that will welcome more foreigners into the country.

Speaking in his weekly radio address, Bush said immigration reform can only be successful if the get-tough border security is combined with opportunities for more immigrants to enter the country legally.

Bush wants to provide more temporary worker permits for foreigners willing to take low-wage jobs and allow illegal immigrants working in the U.S. for some time to become citizens. But Congress has been unable to agree on such legislation.

Bush wants to allow more illegals? Then Bush can allow them to stay on his ranch and he can be financialy responsible for their upkeep.

Does anyone know how many more days we have to put up with that idiot? I know it's under 1,000 days. At least I have something to look forward too regarding his term in office.

Yeah, let's just hope we don't have Sen. John McCain or Sen. Hildabeast Clinton to look forward too.

Somebody, PLEASE, get out the biggest tube of superglue you can find and seal this man's mouth shut!!!!!! Or use duct tape, WHATEVER!!!!

You're right, Dixie - it's under 1000 days. Maybe we should start a countdown clock of some kind

I think NO worker permits should be provided until we have all 6,000 troops on the border, trained, preventing all invasion for at least a year (I can dream). Before any more permits are issued, we should have a working system to keep track of those holding permits. What good does it do to issue permits if we can't keep track of those holding them and they just disappear into the shadows not abiding by the permit? That's pretty much what most have done in the past....so just how does the Shrub think he can remedy that? Just issue more and we'll see what happens??? Is he whack or what?

Is he whack or what?

Ahhhh, YEP!!!!
