My head is going to explode.
The detachment from reality of our elites is staggering.

Kondracke is an enforcement obstructionist.

Morton Kondracke? Isn't he just some talking head geek, part of the MSM elite?

I'd bet this head makes half a million a year, lives in a guarded, gated, sanitized community.

These people are so far removed from reality, it's humorous.

Future growth for the GOP in this demographic (Hispanic) depends upon who calls the shots on policy — Bush and McCain, or restrictionists such as Reps. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., Elton Gallegly, D-Calif., and Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif.

I'm not so sure opposition to illegal immigration is such a loser. I attach a post I made on another thread below;

The popular political fiction that to oppose Illegal Immigration is to risk a loss of Hispanic and other Legal Immigrant/citizen votes would appear to fly in the face of logic. After all, Illegals end up competing directly with Legals for the very entry level jobs Legals are prepared/need to assume and, in this process, drives down wages for both groups and raises unemployment for Legals higher than it would be save for the Illegals competition. - i.e. A losing proposition for Legals and perhaps Naturalized Immigrants, higher Social costs to taxpayers and general chaos all around.

I'm not aware of any polls on this subject but I suspect there would be more opposition to Illegal Immigration by Legals than conventional wisdom suggests. Anyone aware of such a poll?
