With the President scheduled to speak on amnesty and our intentionally un-secured borders Monday, we thought that some exposure to the truth beforehand would be advantageous for the reader.

There will be times that we post thing here that we wish we had written.

This is one of those times. We hope that you will read the entire piece – and listen to Bush on Monday.

Keep the terms “corporate welfare” and “taxpayer subsidized labor” in your mind. They are in the President’s.

excerpt:
Promising immigration enforcement but delivering amnesty

But these days, supporters of mass immigration don’t often decree “there shall be open borders.” Instead they are talking about the need to get tough on border security—just as soon as we make our legal-immigration policy loose enough to accommodate the crackdown. They insist they are not opponents of immigration reform; they are just more realistic reformers.
