12/21/2002 04:05:00 PM | Timothy Bush Smears Can Jared provide ANY quote or evidence that Bush "during his election talked a lot like the sub-human in the article referenced above." Whatever Bush's policies have been since Sept. 11, during the 2000 campus and his time as governor of Texas I don't think he demonized immigrants. If I remember correctly, he made a conscious effort to portray an image of friendliness towards immigrants and Mexico. Maybe you secretly think Bush is evil, but say that for the right reasons. Obviously on some issues, politicians have different motives than their public rhetoric, but Jared wrongly claims that Bush's rhetoric and public statements were the opposite of what they actually were. So there is no puzzle as to why Bush's recent actions are consistent with his pre-Sept. 11 rhetoric. I believe Bush was even considering an amnesty or something like that for illegal immigrants (before Sept. 11 stopped this... perhaps enough time has gone by that Bush can consider actions like this again and that's the explanation) Perhaps Jared can point out some actions Bush took as Governor of Texas, though. perma link |
