I'm glad you aren't fooled by Kudlow and Pence. Lou Dobbs is a much better conservative though I do admit he needlessly inserts anti Iraq and anti Bush garbage into his broadcast. To build audience share and because he believes it.
Tell you where I am on this. My experience is that Kudlow is a capable economist who is right a good fraction of the time. He is off on this one, like a number of people, because he has a mistaken understanding of the costs and benefits of illegal immigration. Like many, he sees the benefits and discounts the costs. For those of us who live outside the beltway, we see what has happened to our schools, hospitals and prisons - they have been beggared by illegals. A few people make money off the illegals, and they are powerful and politically connected (farmers, businessmen and (!) teachers). The rest of us have to pay what their employers do not pay for (medical costs, dumbed down education for our kids, the cost of uninusured drivers, etc.).
