Immigrants, legal or illegal, are not bringing in disease . . they are not bringing crime, they actually are more law-abiding than native citizens . . . they're not burdening public service without paying taxes . . . they're not even TRYING to vote illegally . . .
Immigration does drive down working-class wages. That is the only downside to it -- and even there, it's really not all that bad.
The Republicans -- and I mean the VOTERS, not the pols -- should feel really deeply ashamed of how they scuttled W's immigration-reform bill in 2007. That was pure xenophobia and nativism, there was no excuse at all for it.
