Just days before his Republican primary election, U.S. Rep. Chris Cannon is seeing more than $134,000 flowing into his war chest, much of it from organizations known to favor cheap immigrant labor. The pro-immigration groups have given Cannon, R-Utah, at least $58,200 in the past 12 days alone, a review of federal campaign reports shows. That includes at least $30,000 from agricultural interests — such as the California Farm Bureau and the Dairy Farmers of America. Additional money is coming from businesses known for hiring inexpensive labor —including Wal-Mart and the National Roofing Contractors Association.

Desperate spin-job by Dane. Only Dane would think that getting money from supporters of amnesty is a plus.

You can bet if Jacob would have gotten donations from the Minuteman group Dane would be screeching like a lib.

I don't know if you've been paying attention, but Jacob's for amnesty, too.

For the thirteenth time, I was wondering what your take on the Pence comprimise is?
