“President Bush couldn’t have been clearer: his amnesty proposal for illegal immigrants with local roots and clean records is not an amnesty proposal. All he lacked was one of his famed “message’ backdrops printed with “Not An Amnesty.”

Immigration reform as defined by the president has three primary components: a guest worker program, conditional amnesty for qualifying illegal immigrants, and stepped up enforcement of existing laws. He proposes deploying roughly half a division of National Guard troops to back up border patrol agents until more of the latter can be trained; he proposes establishing a guest worker program that “would match willing foreign workers with willing American employers for jobs Americans are not doing;” and he proposes an amnesty program involving unspecified penalties and the acquisition of English.”
