The immigration debate is over

[The Duke]

I think the facts speak for themselves.  One President enforced the law, one President decided he wasn't obliged to follow the law.

No, Modu's excuse is not a valid one.  The fact that we are trying to protect the country from terrorism should mean more vigorous pursuit of illegals than in the '90s, not less vigorous pursuit of illegals.  After all, many of the 9/11 hijackers were here on expired Visas.  Porous borders and lax interior enforcement are serious weaknesses in the nation's homeland defenses, weaknesses that are exacerbated by the President's refusal to simply follow existing law.

Which is which?

In this case, Clinton obeyed, Bush ignored.

The press deserves a lot of blame for not talking more about terrorism, too.
