Here we have the White House ducking the immigration for the purposes of "Latinos could be attracted to the Republican party"...and in the same breath we get mailings from Tom Reynolds warning us of a "hole in the fence" that he's going to repair. Or are we to believe the GOP who warn us that Pakistani's are our biggest threat? If the GOP weren't so certifiable, they'd actually be funny. But this is one snake you let lose that will come back to bite you (albiet a 3 headed snake). Two faced strategy.

Their big mistake (the Bushies) was not pushing through immigration reform while they still had the political capital to do it. If they'd done that instead of their failed SS privatization plan, the political landscape would be quite different. I agree.

Why a party would throw that away with rhetoric that strikes most Latinos as jingoistic and racist is beyond me, but it's happening, and it's a long-term gift to the Democrats.
