Thread: Rove says temporary worker program needed

So, this is just "not explained" to us properly. And note how Rove wants to cut the fencing from 854 miles to 300. Hang it up Karl.

Rove says temporary worker program needed

ODESSA, Texas — Karl Rove, President Bush's former deputy chief of staff, said Thursday the government will need to reduce the pressures on the border with a temporary worker program in order to be successful with immigration reform.

Rove said the details haven't been explained to the American public well.

He said the U.S. Border Patrol will need to be doubled and the budget tripled with 300 miles of fence built.

Rove said that before Bush took office only about 8 percent of immigrants given a notice to appear at hearings did so while the other 92 percent went on with their lives. He said many immigrants who come to the United States don't have current ties to their own countries.

"We've got to break that cycle," Rove said.

Rove spoke to a crowd of about 1,500 people as part of the John Ben Shepperd Public Leadership Institute's Distinguished Lecture Series at the University of Texas of the Permian Basin.

Rove also said the best thing about working in the White House was the people he had an opportunity to work with.

About the 2008 presidential race, Rove said he favored the Republican nominee but said Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton could have a chance of winning because she has "a machine around her."

Four art students quietly protested before Rove's speech, the Odessa American reported.

"I'm just here to let people in Odessa know this is not a totally conservative area," sophomore Lori Head said. "There are people in Odessa who are individuals and we have our own original thoughts."

Karl Rove has done enough damage to this country.
We do not need any more input from him.
Get Lost Rove.

here here to airbornsapper7. I am with you. F---k rove. He has done more than renough to this country.

Oh shut up Rove. We have already knocked your Guest Worker Amnesty down again and again.

Besides, America has six or seven guest worker programs already your treasonous piece of crap.

Why is Rove putting in his two cents? Did he forget that he left the White house?

Rove is washed up so why is anyone listening to him at all?

Dixie

He's a major reason this country has so many problems and so many Americans (as the recent survey indicated) are extremely worried and disturbed about the future of our country.

NO ONE in their right mind, would consider taking his advise or opinions seriously as to what we should do.

Any group or institution that would even invite him to talk there is totally out of sinc with the American people.

Go away, and stay away. We don't want to hear another word that you have to say, Rover.

Good name for a dog.

Who is this Rove guy and what is his problem?

Rove: Please just fade into obscurity quietly like the rest of Boosh's cronies - the sooner, the better.
