Then we can to a cost benefit analysis of government subsidies yet have it explained how Democratic subsidies are bad. There are precious few other "conservative" ideas.
Like always.. you can't answer a question. Why are all Liberals like you and Back. Ask you guys a question, and you say how bad the "other side" is instead. If it wasn't sad, it would be funny.

Amnesty was a Regan thing. I wasn't old enough back then to really like it or not, but if Bush had done it, I would have been pissed. We should NEVER give amnesty for people that sneak into our country illegally. It's like giving people a warning for DUI's it just encourages MORE DUI's. Why the fuck would anyone want to go thru the hassle, process, and cost of doing it right.. when you can sneak in for free! Work visa's I do agree with. They make perfect sense. So does securing our border.

The first Bush didn't have a Republican house, or Senate. So no luck there. The second... He had Congress for most of his term, but only the Senate for the first half. And those years he was dealing with the fallout of 9/11. Do you REALLY think he could have pushed anything tough through a Dem held Senate on immigration? I do fault Bush for not fixing the Immigration issue when he had the chance. Course, with the Clinton bad economy, and 9/11... he had a full plate.
