President Bush went around congress and gave priviledge to illegals when exactly? link it.
Busch did not bypass Congress,
CC might be referring to the Law Congress passed in 2001 allowing illegals already here to pay 1,000.00 and apply for citizenship without leaving the Country.
Quite a different thing than Obama is doing
.
Bush made presidential decrees and mandates, he "went around" Congress as you like to say. As afar as illegals, Bush did nothing to control the problem.
Of course he did nothing the mitigate the problem. Industry loves cheap labor they can push around and abuse.
