BUSH predicts he'll get open borders for illegal aliens from the Republican Congress. I think Bush is smoking pot on this one -- and his pledge to "burn capital" on the open borders initiative will only inflame Congress and burn up goodwill within the Republican base. In my judgment it's suicidal for the Republican party to aim a nuclear warhead at the income of lower middleclass working parents with the promise of limitless wage competition from the labor pool of the whole globe. If the lower middle class figure out what is happening they'll never vote Repubican again in their lives. And make no mistake -- polls show a majority of hispanic Americans are against this sort of open-borders wage competition. If this is suppose to be a strategy for winning hispanic votes, the President's Defense of Marriage Amendment must be a White House strategy for winning gay votes. Posted by Greg Ransom | TrackBack
