What are you up to Mr. Bush?

It appears the Bush machinery has been whirring non-stop all weekend to hammer, nay "cobble" together the solution to our all-consuming border problem. Isn't it great to know that these things can be worked out in a weekend, what with all the consulting Congress and frinkle-hey.

But the question no one is asking, is what's the goddamned hurry? Yes, I realize that we have to have this all set up for Bush's big fireside chat on Monday night, but why does it have to be Monday night? When did rounding up illegals suddenly become crisis #1?

What is it that is going to happen on Monday, that everyone will stop talking about at 8:01PM Eastern Monday night?

Update: Amidst all the cobbling and burning of midnight oil, somebody forgot to warn our southern neighbor to not be alarmed at sound of National Guard boots stomping around down there. Vicente Fox had to call the President to find out what's going on.
