On Friday's Morning Edition, NPR's Mara Liasson conspicuously excluded conservatives who are opposed to "comprehensive" immigration reform proposals, such as those forwarded by former President George W.

Host Renee Montagne introduced the correspondent's report by highlighting how "Arizona's tough immigration law has received extensive coverage, and there's been a lot of talk about similar measures in other states. Yet, one of Arizona's neighbors, also known for its conservative politics, has taken a very different approach." Liasson set up her report by underscoring Utah's conservative credentials: "If you were to choose a state that would allow illegal immigrants to come out of the shadows, work and drive without fear of deportation, you probably wouldn't pick Utah."
The first sound bite in the report, which came from Alfonso Aguilar of the Latino Partnership for Conservative Principles, backed up the NPR reporter's line: "We have to understand, Utah is one of the most conservative states in the country." Liasson continued that Aguilar, who worked under former President Bush as the head of the U.S. Office of Citizenship, "says the new Utah law shows Republicans can find a middle course." She followed this with a second clip from the Hispanic proponent of the law.

Only this time Tom Joad is really Tomas.
Doesn't matter. As even Mother Jones admits, the Democratic Party left the White working class long ago.
Somewhere there is a village looking for her.
It’s a reverse auction. Republicans and Democrats trying to see who can sell American citizenship the most cheaply, in order to get the votes of amnestied illegals and voters from the Hispanic fifth column.
NPR: Using money from every taxpayer coddle and spoil northeastern and coastal academic liberals and their syncophants.
I have always wondered which liberal sheriff is her special friend. There can be no other reason for her continued employment.
Ping!
Mara is a bigot who probably hates this country.
