    No administration has, Bush sure as hell made the situation worse. Both parties whore for the "Hispanic vote" and seem to forget that there is a much larger Anglo vote out there that has had about enough.

    very nice catch.

    more so than information on auntie, it references a study on what the cost of illegals is. supa contends they add to the economy. anyone have link to a study or anything that references a study to show they add?

    i would like to see numbers and a study instead of opinion.

    this. i hope that both parties face a backlash against members that are ignoring this issue. and it is also another reason why i am not opposed to showing proof of citizenship to register to vote, and then voter registration to vote.

    but lets face it red, everyone involved can say politics wasnt involved in the decision, but it had to have, even if she would have been allowed to stay without it being it the back of everyone's mind who she was.

    the part that is important tho is that she so easily stayed, and stayed in public housing while illegal.

    *sarcasm alert*.... surely she had relatives that could have taken her in and paid her way while fighting for her to receive asylum.

    Bush completely ignored the problem during his terms, due to the fact that the Bush family is part Latino.

    George P. Bush - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    I hope so, but I doubt it. When the media starts up with the "Special Interests" stories people tend to change their minds. There is nothing more powerful than an image of little Lupe and her 9 kids being deported after 15 years in the country. I see all the time here in Houston

    Bush ain't President anymore. Not a defense to Obama's ignoring the problem and twising it into a race issue.

    I'm not here to defend Bush, Clinton, Reagan, etc. I've stated before that neither party's leadership is interested in enforcing the laws. They simply want them regulated which will still allow a steady stream of illegal aliens to get in.

    Even so, I'm not sure where you're going with the Bush comment. The Border Patrol experienced their largest growth ever during his administration. More infrastructure (roads, fences, etc.) were also built during his tenure. Technology was also funded during his term.

    What did he do to make it worse?
