You are right. There is no democrat politician in my red state that would be so stupid to insult his union member constituents by repeatingly defending illegal immigration by claiming we need them to do the work Americans won’t do. Only republicans are stupid enough to repeat that kind of refrain. I have yet to meet a democrat relative or neighbor that wants to legalize this great mass of people who have broken into the country. You will see few if any democrat politicians from the mid west campaigning for this bill.
They can vote for it only because the republicans like McCain and Bush give them cover.

Only republicans are stupid enough to repeat that kind of refrain. Democrat politicians in red states lie and to prove that point .. just take a look at Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano
Here's the thing .. there are jobs that americans won't/can't do .. so on that point the President is not completely wrong
So yes, there is a need for a guest workers
The problem is .. there AREN'T 12-20 million jobs that americans won't/can't do
And the President isn't completely wrong about this bill not being a blanket amensty bill
Though it's pretty damn close to it with the Z visa plan
It would be more productive to actually point out what is wrong with this immigration bill then to just running around sounding like the Daily Kos
