Part 1 of 2
Unfortunately the very same President George W. Bush, with whom many of us have defended against the routine attacks of the left for years, has publicly inferred that we all just don’t know what we’re talking about regarding the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007.
Instead of filling us all in, the Republican elite just denigrates us, just as liberals do, and if you were to listen to them, we just don’t know what we’re talking about and that’s that.
“This bill isn’t amnesty. For those who call it amnesty, they’re just trying to, in my judgment, frighten people about the bill. This bill is one that says we recognize that you’re here illegally and there’s a consequence for it. We can argue about the consequences, but you can’t argue about the fact that there are consequences in this bill for people who have broken our law.”
We’ll get to those “consequences†directly.
I don’t read many books. I just don’t have the patience.
I don’t read legal briefs. I just don’t have the patience.
For that reason, I’m probably not going to find the hidden nuances that would make me say to President Bush, “Ahhh. Now I get it…!â€ÂÂ
