"But Clinton also argued that the nation's government is controlled by Republican ideological hard-liners who want to use immigration to divide Americans and distract them from issues such as the war in Iraq and the health care crisis."
This man is a jackass! From what I read and from what I hear, it seems to me that like 80% of the nation is against illegal immigration, and amnesty, idiot. Those ideological hardliners are the ones that are actually listening to their constituents, thats what they're supposed to do. And as for the healthcare crisis, the biggest crisis right now is the fact that the illegals are bankrupting the healthcare system so we are well aware of the crisis. And as for Iraq and the war on terror, sorry pal, whether one likes it or not we're cleaning up your mess.
