The Dems are having a field day with this issue, and it appears we are going to hand them a home run. Sen. Harry Reid jumped the Oval Office address today by directing pointed questions for the president as well as a demand to make all illegal immigrants subject to prosecution as felons. Not to mention building a wall along the entire southern border.
The proposed new immigration act on the table now, will allow an additional 100 million new immigrants over the next 20 years into the US. That is 30% of our current population. It's crazy to say the least.
Tonight Bush will say:
“We are a Nation of laws, and we must enforce our laws. We are also a Nation of immigrants, and we must uphold that tradition, which has strengthened our country in so many ways. These are not contradictory goals – America can be a lawful society and a welcoming society at the same time. We will fix the problems created by illegal immigration, and we will deliver a system that is secure, orderly, and fair.”
Some of the great bloggers are all over this issue and many will be liveblogging tonight.
Hot Air has an open thread all night.
Gateway Pundit with the "Open Border Drinking Game"
Michelle Malkin chimes in with "Read My Lips: No New Amnesty" and her 'Vent' on Hot Air is great as always.
Kathryn Jean Lopez at The Corner summed it up in one sentence. "Tonight could be the first fully televised political suicide in history. I don't even want to watch."
