The Bush Dynasty & Immigration Reform

My mind has been spinning since reading the opening paragraph of the Newsweek article, Bush's Spanish Lessons. Here it is, in its splendor and glory.

May 29, 2006 issue - President George W. Bush seemed unusually heartfelt when he addressed the nation last week on immigration reform. For the president, immigration is not just a matter of politics or policy, it's personal. Bush has always been drawn to stories of Latino immigrants who came up by their bootstraps. In an interview with Hispanic Magazine in 2004, he described Paula Rendón, "who came up from Mexico to work in our house" when Bush was a boy growing up in Midland, Texas. "She loved me. She chewed me out. She tried to shape me up," said Bush. "And I have grown to love her like a second mom." Bush recalled Rendón's pride in seeing "her grandkids go to college for the first time."

Now...maybe this stems from my being a Yankee transplant in the South. But...change Nanny to Mammy and the Latino inference to Slave. Are you seeing the same thing that I am?

Awwww...Georgie is trying to channel Lincoln. How quaint.

Georgie...you are not enlightened. You will never be great like Lincoln. You are not emancipating anyone. You're just helping your corporate puppet string holders, as always.

My advice...send one of your aides to the library and grab a book about a fellow Texan, Lyndon Johnson, and his domestic policies. Perhaps you may learn something.

Oh. Who am I kidding?
