Presidente Jorge W. Bush: A Conservative Speaks Out

“Those determined to find fault with this bill will always be able to look at a narrow slice of it and find something they don’t like. If you want to kill the bill, if you don’t want to do what’s right for America , you can pick one little aspect out of it.” – Presidente Jorge W. Bush

Formally known as President George W. Bush, I will now refer to him as Presidente Jorge W. Bush. His support of this amnesty bill in the senate has me, a conservative, spitting nails.

“But Orlando,” you might ask, “as a Hispanic, wouldn’t you be supportive of this bill?” Let’s not mix political philosophy with ethnicity. Yes I’m a Hispanic, Latino, Chicano, Mexican-American…pick your politically correct term. More importantly, I am an AMERICAN. I love this country, I fought in a war for this country, and I want what is best for it.

On the other hand, Presidente Jorge W. Bush wants to legalize 12-20 million illegal immigrants. This is WRONG on so many levels.

• It creates a huge underclass of poor people.
• It could destroy social security as millions join the entitlement program.
• INS gets millions of citizen applications a year and they are already backlogged. Imagine adding 20 million instantly.
• The background check on this bill only allows 1 day.
• It puts trust in an inefficient and bureaucratic government.
• The current laws are not being enforced. What makes us think these new laws will be enforced?
• What happened to the 700-mile border fence promised and funded previously?
• It rewards illegal behavior.
• It undermines the rule of law.
• It will reduce hard working American’s pay by infusion of millions willing to work for less.
• It will encourage a rush to the border by more illegal immigrants.
• It allows the 12-20 million to eventually bring in their families so 100 million could be the end result.
• It sends the message that our borders do not need to be respected.
• The government has no way to test English proficiency for 12-20 million people.
• It changes the entire culture of the United States .
• It’s just dead wrong!

I could go on but then I’d be hotter than habanero chile. Maybe if I speak the language of Presidente Jorge W. Bush he might understand me. Por favor Señor Bush. Yo no quiero “an amnesty bill.”
