It was written with help from the editorial staff at the Wall Street Journal. Here it is: Q. I’m concerned that the immigration bill focuses more on giving illegal […]

One of the arguments that has been put forth in favor of the amnesty bill in the Senate is that it would allow Republicans to get the issue off the table for 2008.

One of Tom Tancredo’s people contacted me and asked me if I’d like to do an interview with Tanc via email. I agreed, made sure he knew I worked for Duncan Hunter, and sent him the questions. I sent in 7 questions, Tanc only answered 4, and his answers were surprisingly brief. I’m not exactly […]

One of the “features” of the new amnesty bill in the Senate is that it will immediately grant probationary Z-visas to 12-20 million illegal immigrants…but don’t worry, the Feds will have a full 24 hours to do a background check on each illegal, who may or may not have real documents, be giving their real […]

Excerpt Of The Day: Proof That The American People Are A Lot Smarter Than Politicians Think “There’s a simple reason the immigration bill being debated by the U.S. Senate is unpopular with voters–the general public doesn’t believe it will reduce illegal immigration.
