Bush defends immigration proposals.

President Bush sharply challenged critics of his stalled immigration-overhaul efforts on Thursday, suggesting that failure to pass a guest-worker program could trigger a labor shortage in the United States. This portion of the presidents argument i agree with and i believe that him defending this idea is very assuring. The American people should not have a problem with him doing this and he shouldn't have to defend him self. At a town-hall style meeting, Bush also rebuffed a question about whether he would consider pardoning two Border Patrol agents in prison for the cover-up of the shooting of a drug trafficker in Texas. "No, I won't make you that promise," Bush told a woman who asked about a possible pardon. Many Republicans in Congress have said the men should not have been convicted and have criticized the federal U.S. attorney for even prosecuting the agents. Finally it looks like President bush is coming to the light, but it shouold have been sooner. It don't like the sound of his republican party though they sound bias and unfair. Everyone deserves fair punishment and Bush it Stessing that!

Although I disagree with the Bush administration on many things, this is not one of them. Immigration has been a hot topic in our blog and rightly so. Our economy would not function without the illegal immigrants that come and take jobs that not many would take. By passing a guest-worker program, the immigrants could come more freely to earn money for their families in Mexico and leave a comfortable life once thoroughly supported, while providing the labor needed in the U.S. needed to run the economy.
