Immigration reform was to be George W. Bush's legacy. It's now clear that he won't have a legacy to stand on.
The president's visit to the Capitol was supposed to restart the immigration "grand bargain," currently in a mid-air stall. As is his habit, he painted scary scenarios if things don't go his way. (Note how he lists the dire consequences of pulling out of the mess he created in Iraq.) On immigration, he warns that "the status quo is unacceptable."
