[quote]Republicans have an opportunity on immigration, if only they will seize it. The Democrats are positioning themselves to the left of public opinion. Howard Dean denounces Republicans for using “outrageous phrases like ‘illegal aliens.’â€

Attacking Romney for contracting with a company that hires illegal aliens is just not right. As individuals, the fed. gov. has not given us the tools to check the immigraiton status of people. However, employeers have been given the tools and the responsibility lies on them to check. Individuals are not fined but employers are. Holding Romney accountable for something that he has little control over is silly.

Gilianni! Get real dude!

Moreover, immigrants would succeed, and assimilate, faster, with less friction from the native-born, if we took in fewer immigrants each year. Neither candidate takes any notice of this point.
