The White House Game Planning for Immigration Reform

President George W. Bush has long wanted immigration reform legislation to be a key part of his presidential legacy, and officials within his administration have been scrambling this week to try to keep alive the "grand bargain" immigration reform legislation that failed to pass in the Senate three weeks ago. The Senate will almost certainly reconsider the measure next week, and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and Commerce Department Secretary Carlos Gutierrez both have been "constantly on the phone" this week, says one administration official, trying to prevent any poison pills from being included in the list of two dozen amendments that will get floor votes during the debate.

Every morning this week began at 7 a.m., with what one lobbyist called "war-room-style" conference calls — led by Bush's legislative assistant Candida Wolff — to go over new developments and to hammer out a daily strategy. In the past two weeks, Press Secretary Tony Snow has even been deployed to try to motivate immigration activists to push on, calling the president's immigration stance one of the reasons why he joined the administration.

"This week will basically be the last chance to pass immigration reform in this administration," says one activist, "and the administration is using every card they've got."

My god, they have complete contempt for us. It's almost unbelievable!

Absolute and unequivocal contempt for the American citizen and worker. Jimmy Carter was right when he called the Bush administration the worst in the history of the presidency.

Even more of a reason for us to keep calling the Senate Offices and Talk Radio shows to motivate others to do the same.

Also get as many people as possible to ALIPAC to join in the fight.

Bush has No caring feelings towards what we the American people want and that scares and angers me tremendously.
But what really gets me going is that He is going to waste more money and time over the dead bill instead of taking the American peoples words whishes and wants and fixing the darn problem. Problem is a under statement.

Let's vote out of office ANYONE who votes in favor of amnesty! Let's also let them know that as well!

My god, they have complete contempt for us. It's almost unbelievable!

That's right jecg. And for the laws and constitution (NAU/SPP) of the United States.
