For some reason, Tony Snow seems to equate illegal miscreants with good, hardworking Hispanics. I have no doubt the two sets intersect, but what good are we doing our own country if we don't have the resolve to boot out the border-jumpers, be they Hispanic, Irish, Arab, Slavic, etc.
And they do intersect, rather significantly. I've personally known many Mexican immigrants who fit that description, and I'm sure at least some were illegals -- I never asked.
It's difficult for me to place nice, hard-working folks who're looking for a better life -- into the same classification as drug dealers and gang-bangers. Call me names if you'd like, but they're not the same sort of "criminal."
