Straw dogs, I only corrected you for your stupid claim that you remember that Rush was an illegal alien advocate.

Childish stuff that, now you seem to have abandoned that, good.

‘Stupid claim, childish, liar.’ Did I leave out any of your greatest hits? You’re a regular wizard at debate, not to mention a class act. High IQ?

As for a ‘straw dog’, feel free to point it out. In my experience those who spot a straw dog quote it. Those who don’t are simply trying to hide behind the charge.

I suspect that what you want to pretend is a “straw dog” is my request that produce one bit of evidence that a Prop 187 group was supported by Rush, had him as a member, or even received a positive comment by him.

Prop 187 was the major illegal immigration control initiative of the 1990s. There was no other. The campaign went on for well over a year, in the state that Rush had recently called home. We got all sorts of publicity, he can’t claim that he was unaware of it.

The fact is that he never supported Prop 187. This was his big chance to separate himself from his pal Bill Bennett and Bennett’s vile attacks on Prop 187. And Rush said nothing.

This supports your claim that Rush has always been an opponent of illegal immigration in what way, exactly? Rush has “always” been an opponent of illegal immigration only after Dubya’s attempt to force amnesty, which I admit surprised me considering his decade plus absence on the issue.
