President Bush continues to fail
to see that he is President of the United States of America. He
should appoint well-versed, qualified public speakers to
articulate his viewpoints to the nation. He fails to understand how
his stumping undermines his authority and weakens the office he was
given the privilege to occupy. His privilege explicitly mandates
that he work to strengthen America and its presidency. |
|
The Bush administration should be
leading, but instead it fails to articulate a succinct policy that will
promote America. In a recent immigration policy press release the
Bush administration used their usual word-heavy, superfluous,
ambiguous, and consistently weak-minded vagaries. |
|
Under the headline, "Comprehensive
Immigration Reform: Securing Our Border, Enforcing Our Laws, And
Upholding Our Values,"
the administration failed
to concisely state the few decision points involved in the
immigration issue. It fails to take the stand that will maintain
America for Americans and immigrants worthy of becoming Americans. |
|
Those points are: 1.)
Illegal immigration is illegal; 2.) There must be procedures
and controls to ensure the caliber of people allowed the privilege of
living in the USA; 3.) Immigrants must earn citizenship and the
rights, privileges, and protections guaranteed by the US
Constitution. |
|
Immigrants who fail to abide
by US laws, work honest jobs, learn to cooperate with Americans in
the American way, are not earning the right to live in
America. Their actions demonstrate their obvious preference to live
their native lifestyles rather than as Americans. Their actions
demonstrate that they would live better if returned to their
homelands. |
|
American-born and immigrants who want to carry
labels other than "American," demonstrate that they hold more
respect for other cultures than the American culture. When people
modify their American label, they demean what it means to be an
American. |
|
Those immigrants who demand their
right to avoid speaking English, refuse to live law-abiding lives,
and refuse to work honest jobs, identify themselves as
unworthy of US citizenship. |
|
The Bush administration believes
that their constituents have no other choice but to support them. They fail to recall
that in 1992, their supporters made choices that removed them from
power. As a result, today all Americans have a diminished America. |
|
The Bush administration should
realize that it is better to stand up for American standards
and fight than to give in for political
expediency, only to maintain control of a failed, decayed nation. |
