I meant to say far-right and center-left.

Wait a minute, so you're saying that center-left wants to clamp down on illegal immigration, and far-right wants to clamp down on illegal immigration, but center-right doesn't? Are there any other issues with such a curious pattern of opinion?

Center left belonged to Bush these past elections.

Bush got votes from many people who are vehemently opposed to his immigration policies. We already knew that.

Had I wanted to say that, I would have said that wouldn't I?

But I did not.

Obviously, and with the known support of far-right FReepers for Hillary's campaign in 2008, there are some who are less than enchanted with an individual (President Bush) who is actively looking for a plan, and will willingly buy oil sold by any snake oil salesman that makes promises.

Thus Hillary and immigration.

Well, then what was your point of including far-rightists and center-leftists in the same statement? Are you saying that there's some commonality of opinion between the two groups on this subject that isn't shared by center-rightists?

No, the's not saying that. What he's saying is that only the center-right (meaning the President and himself) has the savvy and compassion to address this issue. Every other possible Bush voter is lumped together, which is why you'll be invited to go back to DU (if that hasn't happened already).
