The left? My goodness gracious. The president (ever since 911), John McCain and many Republicans in power, as well as those appointed by Bush, who are supposed to protect our border and sovereignty, have led the way in keeping the border wide open. I understand that the dems and the left have wanted that as well. But the ones in power have championed the current status and even attempted to escalate it. They have tried to call it something else, and otherwise obfuscate their intentions with language, sneak elements of it (amnesty and open borders) into legislation and would do it arrogantly and outright in a heartbeat if not for the possible public backlash. Even now, they are simply waiting for our guard to be lowered. The left? Well then, except for an outspoken few... they are ALL "the left."
Of course you are correct.
And that is exactly why some of us are having such angst over this election.
There is no acceptable candidate for the true conservative.
For many reasons, not just the Mexican border.
Spot on!

Conspicuous by its absence.
