NRO Symposium Review on Bush Illegal Alien Speech


The NRO is a conservative publication. Many of commentators of the NRO try to look for the silver lining in President Bush's Monday night speech an a plan to deal with illegal immigration, however the consensus seems to be that the President is lacking and late with answers to the problem.

My opinion is that President Bush's response to illegal immigration is a failed policy. The President tosses the rights of actual citizens in favor of potential citizens. Many of these potential citizens are people who don't want citizenship yet wish to enjoy the benefits of citizenship with compliance to American law. Many are in America to make money for families back home in Mexico. This is laudable if done legally, it is horrible if done at the expense of true American taxpayers.

Many of the illegal aliens are simply just criminals involved in some form of criminal activity from drugs to human trafficking.

The President has to come up with a plan that American citizens can support, not a plan that supports the opinions and lifestyles non-citizen illegal aliens.
